A British woman is in hiding after admitting she was having an
incestuous relationship with her biological son. Kim West and her son
Ben Ford reunited after being 30 years apart.
West gave Ford up for
adoption at age 19 while going to school in California. West moved back
to the U.K, and received a letter from her son in 2003 looking to find
his biological parents.
Two years after the first meeting in 2003 Ford left his wife, moved
in with his mother in Michigan and began an intimate relationship. The
two don’t call this incest, they refer to it as “Genetic Sexual
Attraction,” which is when relatives feel sexual attraction after
meeting as adults.
“I know people will say we’re disgusting, that we should be able to
control our feelings, but when you’re hit by a love so consuming you are
willing to give up everything for it, you have to fight for it,” said
Kim West in a Mirror report.
The couple have went into hiding as U.S. authorities have caught wind
of their incestuous relationship. A spokesperson for the State of
Michigan spoke to the Mirror stating, “Under State law incest between
two consenting adult is a third degree felony punishable by up to 15
years in prison.”
The couple plans to leave Michigan to avoid being arrested. New
Jersey and Rhode Island have no laws stopping consenting adults
participating in incestuous relationships.
