A woman who has just given birth is at the centre of a rare medical occurrence. The woman known as T.M has given birth to a set of twins who have two different fathers.

The rare occurrence was revealed when the woman that she had sex with another man 7 days after she slept with her boyfriend. The paternity test was done to verify her claim.

Having two fathers for a set of twins is known as heteropaternal super fecundation- a situation when a woman releases two eggs during her menstrual cycle and different men fertilise one egg each.

Despite naming her boyfriend as the father of her twins, he will only pay for the child support for his daughter according to a court ruling. He will now pay $28 a week for the care of his daughter.
