The 14-year-olds became Britain’s youngest parents

In 2010, April Webster and Nathan Fishbourne became the youngest parents in the UK, a title that would follow them for years.They were just 13 when April became pregnant, and by the time their son, Jamie, entered the world, they had both turned 14.

 

Their story made headlines, sparking debates, shock, and curiosity. The world watched, some with judgment, others with sympathy. But when the media frenzy faded, and the headlines moved on, what happened to the family that had once captured the world’s attention?

 

Becoming a parent is one of life’s biggest milestones, and for 14-year-olds April Webster and Nathan Fishbourne, it was no different. But one thing set them apart — their incredibly young age.

April and Nathan’s story began when they met as classmates at St Cenydd School in Caerphilly, South Wales. But their teenage romance took an unexpected turn when April became pregnant at just 13. Read More Below

April discovered she was pregnant with Jamie just one day before her 14th birthday – and the news sent shockwaves through their families. April had not told her parents about their sexual relationship because she felt “too embarrassed.”According to April and Nathan, they took no precautions whilst having sex because after trying contraceptives once, Nathan didn’t like it.

Nathan’s parents, Julie and Ron, a retired trucker, were angry with their son at first.

”I had a real go at him and told him he had been stupid. But we can’t undo what has happened and will now accept Jamie into our family. There’s no way we’ll turn our backs on him,” Ron told The Sun at the time.
