Recall the news of the father who found out that the three children he thought were his were not after all? (Read Here)
Well, the latest on the issue is that the devastated ‘dad’, Richard Mason, 55, is reaching out to the children not to abandon him; begging them to also contact him.
Businessman, Richard Mason, 55, revealed he was devastated when he was given the news that he had cystic fibrosis, an inherited disease that makes male sufferers unable to father children naturally. This came as a shock to him because he already had three sons with his ex-wife – a set of twins, Joel and Ed, 18, and their older brother, Willem.

Following the discovery, the millionaire MoneySupermarket.com co-founder sued his ex-wife over the paternity of ‘their’ sons even though two of the boys had threatened to cut him off if he sued their mom.
Mason had gone ahead to sue his ex-wife and won £250,000 against her. He postulated that he had to sue her because he felt his ‘world had fallen away’ due to the lie she made her live which has now cost him the children he loved.
Seizing the opportunity of being on air on ‘Good Morning Britain’ with his wife, Mason who confessed to not having spoken to 2 out of the 3 boys in the last three years used the opportunity to plead with them to reconnect with him.

“It was like the world had just fallen away. I had been told I had a terminal illness, then found out the boys weren’t mine. It has been very, very hard.”
When asked if he had anything to say to his 2 estranged sons, he said:
“Boys I haven’t done anything wrong at all.
I love you, my doors always open, I’ve got the kettle waiting to go on, six pack of beer.
Just come round, you’ve got the biggest ever. Let’s have a cry, let’s just hug, let’s just get back to where we were before. And just have a word with your mom, tell her to stop being so daft.”
The new Mrs Mason, Emma, who was diagnosed with breast cancer just weeks after her husband’s diagnosis, added that the boys should get in touch so they can all spend some time together in the “years we have left.”

“I’ve not fallen out with Mum over this. We’re all OK. She had just had an unhappy marriage and she wanted kids. And here we are. I never knew until a couple of years ago that Richard wasn’t my real dad.”
He added that when they found out about Mason’s diagnosis, he and his twin brother, Ed agreed to a DNA test but their elder brother, Willem- who also hasn’t spoken to their ‘father’ in 3-years, refused to take a DNA test.
He had gone further to say of Mason:
“I haven’t been speaking to him for a number of years because of his behaviour. He’s a very manipulative man, not the kind of person you want to be with. I started noticing this when I was 15. But he’s still my dad and I’m not going to look for my real one. I doubt he even knows we exist.”
