They were separated shortly after the birth of the girl. And even private detectives could not help the man find the child.
Met, got married, divorced. The usual story, of which there are millions. Scott Becker divorced his wife a few months after the birth of their common child. And … I lost sight of them. The ex-wife of Scott seemed to have disappeared into thin air with his daughter. The woman did not need anything from him: no alimony, no participation in the upbringing of the baby. The man was not at all happy about this. He struggled to find his April – that was the name of the girl.
The search continued for more than a dozen years. Scott spent 40 thousand dollars on private detectives – almost 2,5 million rubles. All is unsuccessful.
April was also trying to find her father. As she revealed on NBC, her mother remarried shortly after the divorce. The girl did not even suspect that her mother’s husband was not her own father. The truth became known to her only when she was five years old.
April first met her father when she was 3 years old.
April stopped resenting her parents only when she came of age. And she began to search. She tried to find her father through the Internet, because social networks are networks to unite people. But the girl had too little information: only a name, and a fairly common one, and a couple of old photographs.
One day, April decided to go the other way. She stopped typing her father’s name over and over again in search engines and typed her own. And… came across the AprilBecker.com website. Of course, April clicked on the namesake site. It turned out that the page was created by her father.
Dear April, read the text on the site. – When you have read this, please send an email to april@aprilbecker.com. I am your dad and I would really like to talk to you. When I receive your letter, I will ask you a couple of questions so that I know for sure that it is you. And know, you have a younger sister who really wants to talk to you. Robert Scott Becker “.
Of course, April followed the instructions. The questions turned out to be very simple – for her. Mother’s maiden name, her birthday, middle name … All these details very quickly convinced Scott that the same April, his first daughter, wrote to him.
“I knew right away that this was my father. It’s an indescribable feeling, “said April. She saw her father for the first time when she was already 30 years old. One can only imagine how the girl felt at that moment. In addition, she now had not only a father, but also a younger sister who was preparing to get married …
Scott, too, was sure that this was his own girl. And he even refused to do a paternity test.
“I found my daughter,” he said. “I finally found her.”
