I awoke to SkyNews this morning reporting how a grandmother has shocked her friends and family after revealing she is having a baby with her own grandson. Pearl Carter, 72, says she has never been happier after beginning an incestuous relationship with her 26-year-old grandchild Phil Bailey.
The incestuous couple are 46 years apart (picture: New Idea magazine)
The pensioner, from Indiana, US, is using her pension to pay a surrogate mother so they can have a child, reports New Zealand’s New Idea magazine.
She said: “I’m not interested in anyone else’s opinion. I am in love with Phil and he’s in love with me.
“Soon I’ll be holding my son or daughter in my arms and Phil will be the proud dad.”
Maybe they just want to be ‘forever young’ ?

“I never in a million years thought at 72 I’d be ‘pregnant’ and in love with my grandson.
“I make no apologies and I believe God’s given me a second chance.”
So, I ask you for your comments here please while I take her out to the bingo – she loves it she does! Let them get on with it or punish them for what would some see as a crime? Do tell….
Some serious psychological issues here. It is incest no matter how you look at it, even if it is mutual. Disturbing.
Also, this sounds like a tabloid hoax.

I read about this yesterday with astonishment. There’s not much you can read these days that raises an eyebrow! I think it’s very strange indeed.
To be honest, if it were just a question of the guy being two generations younger than the gal, I’d say that’s weird but I try always to go by the ethos ‘live and let live’. There are no rules written anywhere (that I know of) that say the male should be ‘x’ number of years older/younger than the female. If they’re happy and in love, not breaking the law and not harming anyone, fine!
However, these two are RELATED (grandson/grandma) and that’s a whole different thing. It must be illegal. I think the pair of them have some serious issues. Neither are thinking of the stigma that the child is going to have to deal with for the rest of its life. In addition, any woman wanting a baby at the age of 72 is completely ‘barking mad’.
They seem like two pretty selfish people and quite seriously, probably not too much intelligence going on between them. I’m sure they’ll make a few quid out of all the media attention though.
I feel sorry for their child. She’s misguided if she thinks God has given her a second chance. Ugh!

Welcome to coffee catwalk….!
Sounds great! I wish them the best of luck. I don’t see why love or relationships have to fit into any mold. It’s nobody’s business, except their own.

Agreed but ‘society’ has to approve, right?
Those X and Y chromosomes are going to be messed up for future generations! I thought incest was taboo?

So at what point do you start asking your grandma to take her false teeth out or if her hip is up to it today?
I mean there must have been one day it all clicked, maybe it was the day she shaved and didn’t smell of boiled cabbage?
Freaks, scorn them, ridicule them, prosecute them, throw things at them, encourage you friends and children to mock and bully them……….
This has ‘invent a story for cash’ written all over it. Its the new hicksville way of making money.
Freaks indeed.
In fairness though, she is a bit of a looker isn’t she?
go for it girl.
LOL!!!

That poor child is definitely going to have a difficult time. I wouldn’t mind as much if they weren’t related… but your GRANDSON? Seriously, woman?! I wonder what the guy’s mother thinks of all this… I personally would be mortified if my son embarked on a sexual affair with my mother. o_O
