black parent gives birth to a white baby

A black couple living in the U.K. were shocked by the birth of a blonde haired, blue-eyed girl.
Ben Ihegboro must have briefly questioned his wife Angela's fidelity after the birth of Nmachi, and he conceded: “We both just sat there after the birth staring at her”.
As there is no known mixed-race background in either of the parents' families, geneticists are baffled by the newborn's surprise appearance.
Nmachi is the couple's third child, with Dumebi, 2, and Chisom, 4, each bearing a strong resemblance to their parents. Doctors rejected the possibility of the baby being albino. The real cause is unknown, with the only explanation being a "genetic quirk."

I heard about something like this a few years ago. Its because of recessant genes. But I always thought someone came up with that idea just to cover up the fact they've either been cheating or mixed up the babies at the hospital.

he has to pay child support.

the only thing that should be 'baffling' to geneticists in this situation is how the mother is refusing to own up to having been adulterous in the past.

Shit, I feel really bad for the "wrong" color babies....
The situation is funny and all, but they probably have a lot of emotional problems later on.

Yeah, especially if they're fluorescence purple or something. Talk about the wrong color!
