A guest of this morning revealed the pathogenic discoveries she made after a DNA test for medical reasons during the episode of Monday of the ITV show.
Victoria Hill came to Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard Wonen from her house in Connecticut to talk about some of the earth-differing revelations about her biological father and ex-boyfriend.
The guest wanted to look at her background to get some answers about her health and was also curious to learn more about her genetic heritage.
The results came back that she had some half-brothers and sisters that she admitted to 'quickly fired', but she repeatedly received e-mails from a woman she later discovered was her half-sister.
Victoria said, “As she kept pushing, she said:” Your mother went to Yale Fertility Treatment Clinic to get help for fertility “… When she said that, it got my attention because I knew so much.
“My parents had struggled with fertility …”

Victoria Hill came to Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard live from her house in Connecticut to talk about, she discovered the truth behind her biological father and ex -friend
She added: “She had my attention and she gave me the rest of the information – this doctor, my mother's fertility doctor, was in fact my biological father.”
When asked how she felt about the shocking news, Victoria explained: 'It was quite surrealistic. It took a while to go on.
'I have to say that I grew up that I felt that part of me was different or far away, we used to have a joke between my father and I, that the only thing that was similar was our hands.
'It clicked in a number of weird ways. But it seemed too bizarre, in its different stages.
'Not only is the man who did not raise my biological father, but my mother's doctor where she went to get pregnant for more than eight years and then bring her the news and to share that with her.
“She wasn't aware of this either. We were sitting together. '
Victoria explained that more 80 doctors did the same as Doctor Caldwell and her story wanted to share to increase consciousness.
Victoria said the presenters: “She had my attention and she gave me the rest of the information – this doctor, my mother's fertility doctor, was in fact my biological father”
Then she shared an even more shocking element in her story.
Victoria is known that it has 25 half brothers and sisters and the number has continued to grow over the years.
During a conversation with friends, she realized that her ex-boyfriend had experienced the same thing as she was.
Victoria explained: 'We found out that there was a reunion in high school, we started sharing info with good friends and rapidly ahead to a dinner and it was at that moment that while I tell this story, my boyfriend, now friend, now seemed friend that he turned something in his head.
“His mother recently told him that the reason why he and his brother, who is also a really good friend of mine, went with his father for fertility treatment with his father.
'So we just assumed that she should have gone to the same place.
“He eventually called his mother and his mother confirmed that the same doctor had performed the same procedure.
“So then it was a waiting game.
“We were unbelieving that this was something we were entertaining.
“We joked, but it felt very surreal. Then in a few weeks he sent me the screenshot that you are my sister.
'The astonishing thing was that he sent me the screenshot, I had the report of my phone at 23 and I have a new half-brother or sister.
'So only that realization … I felt like I was on the Truman show.
“It was only one next one that touches after the other. We still don't know what's going to come. '
During the interview, Cat and Ben noticed that Dr. Caldwell had recently died.
The guest, who tries to change the laws around fertility treatment, also explained that she was going to confront him with what he had done.
Victoria said: “When I asked him:” Why? “He said” It was in the case of making babies. “
She added: “There was not much regret, there was not much worries.”
“The impression I got was just:” Your mother wanted a baby, she got a baby. ”
“I believe he was a large part of the establishment of the Yale Fertility Clinic, so this was his life and I can only imagine the extreme measures to make this program work, what this cognitive dissonance creates, because everyone on the one hand asks:” Are you not happy to live? Your mother wanted a child and she had a child. “
“But on the other hand, I didn't want to be a product of fertility fraud, my mother did not agree with his sperm and I did not agree with having a growing number of brothers and sisters who will continue to grow.”
This morning this morning will be broadcast on ITV1 from 10 a.m. and is available for streaming on ITVX.
