Black Woman Gives Birth To White Baby [PIC]

Francis and Arlette Tshibangu was in for one very big surprise just after the birth of their second child – a beautiful caucasian boy named Daniel. What then was the surprise? They are both non-white, so do the math. I know what you are thinking – the answer to this mystery is that boy must be an albino, right? No so, says doctors. The genetic mix-up has baffled experts, who say Daniel is NOT an albino with no skin pigment – not to mention the parents, who already have a two-year-old black son, Seth.
The story gets a bit stranger. The couple, who met in the Congo in 2007 and wed a year later before settling in the UK, believe Daniel must be a throwback to Arlette’s great-great-great-grandmother, who is thought to have given birth to a white baby too!
Leading fertility expert ­Professor Robert Winston says the birth is “extraordinary”.
This is unbelievably rare and one of the first cases I’ve heard of in the UK. The fact it’s ­happened before in the same family – albeit generations ago – is significant. The genetic differences between black and white ­people are much slighter than we think. I can only think there’s been a mild mutation. It may also be that the part of Africa the parents are from – Congo – is inherent to a certain genetic instability. There’s been very little research. Events like this just go to show how ­similar we all are.
Preach!
