Woman To Marry Anonymous Sperm Donor After Tracking Him Down & Falling In Love

Aminah Hart, a British-born woman who had a child through IVF is currently engaged to an anonymous sperm donor she tracked down and later fell in love with.

Aminah, aged 45, is an Australian woman born in London, according to reports, she only met her fiance after she had given birth to their daughter Leila. She originally selected Scott Andersen, an Australian cattle farmer who lives on an island off the south coast, from five possible sperm donors because she liked that he listed himself as “happy and healthy”. Aminah discovered his identity through a series of internet searches based on his name as well as his profession as a cattle breeder and his role as a Aussie rules football coach. Rather than contact him directly, however, she contacted him via the official IVF register.

According to Mirror:

He was not legally required to meet Leila until she turned 18 but agreed, especially after he received a photo of his baby and saw how much she looked like both him and his four other children from two
previous marriages. They agreed to meet for the first time in Melbourne four days after Leila’s first birthday. Soon after, the pair fell in love and have now announced they are engaged.

The heartwarming “back to front love story” is so unlikely it has even attracted the attention of Hollywood filmmakers. Mr Andersen told the Telegraph: “Neither of us expected it to happen. I fell in love with Leila before I fell in love with Aminah. “It was all odd at the start. But Leila’s beautiful. We arranged to meet once a month. Aminah and I became quite friendly and Leila started calling me daddy and coming to me all the time.”
