A young woman has made a shocking confession on a live counselling programme, revealing that she deliberately became pregnant for her biological brother before his death in an attempt to “preserve his name.”
The woman, who appeared on Secret TV hosted by Pastor Prince Elisha Osei Kofi, founder and leader of Power Embassy International Church, shared that she grew up very close to her brother after their parents separated.
According to her, the four siblings, three girls and a boy lived with their father, which strengthened her bond with her brother after their parents marriage got separated.
“My mother and father separated, so we were living with my father and we were bonding very much and doing everything together,” she recounted.
She explained that their inappropriate relationship started during childhood after they discovered an adult film while cleaning their father’s room.
“One day we were cleaning the house and we saw a Compact Disc (CD) kept somewhere. When we played it, it was an adult film, so we wanted to practice what we watched and it became consistent because we enjoyed it,” she confessed.
The woman said the affair ended when they grew older and went separate ways. She later married but her brother eventually fell seriously ill with cancer.
She claimed that doctors ruled out his chances of survival. Fearing her brother would die without a child, she said she decided to conceive for him.
“So, I waited for when I was ovulating and went to my brother to sleep with him. I slept with him for four days during that period and I got pregnant,” she said.
Her brother died shortly after. She later delivered a baby girl, whom her husband has been raising as his own since birth.
She told Pastor Osei Kofi that the child has a distinct birthmark identical to her late brother’s, which she believes confirms her suspicion about the child’s paternity.
“There is a birthmark on my brother and my child also has the same mark on her body, so I knew the child is for my brother and not my husband,” she said.
However, the woman said she has since been unable to conceive again. She claimed to have urged her husband to have a child outside their marriage but he refused, insisting they accept their situation as God’s will.
She now faces a dilemma over whether to confess the truth to her husband, who remains unaware of the child’s real father.
“I am very confused about what to do. My husband has taken care of the child since day one, and because I have been listening to your programme, I came here for advice,” she told the host.
