When they were catapulted into the
spotlight, they were still children.

However, in the intervening years, what
has become of the youngest parents in Britain?

This
week, we disclosed that Tressa Middleton, the youngest mother in Britain, is
currently expecting her fourth child, having given birth at the age of twelve.

A
photo of a baby ultrasound that the 29-year-old Bathgate, West Lothian,
Scotland resident posted on Facebook was taken 17 years after her first
pregnancy made headlines around the country.

She
exclaimed, “So guys, it’s another
girl!!” in the post. Four girls, I can’t believe it. Good luck, Darren.”

We
relive Tressa’s heartbreaking tragedy and what happened to the other youngest
parents in Britain as the expectant mother reveals her good news.

Horrific
attack

When
Tressa’s pregnancy was made public at the age of 11, it was thought to be the
consequence of an incident involving alcohol.

Born
from a chaotic household with a mother struggling with addiction, Tressa gave
birth not long after finishing elementary school.

Two
years after she gave birth, the young mother battled depression and alcohol and
cigarette addictions, which resulted in her child being taken from her custody
and placed for adoption.

The
father’s identity was kept a secret until 2009, when the young mother broke
down and told authorities that her elder brother Jason had s******y assaulted
her.

The
34-year-old Jason was found guilty of s******y abusing the woman starting when
she was seven years old and was sentenced to four years in prison in 2009. This
was all due to DNA evidence.

Tressa
stated to the Daily
Mail in 2011 that “sometimes
he blackmailed or bribed me to do it.”

“He’d say he was going to tell Mum. He’d
give me things – joints, drink, cigarettes. Or he’d threaten me.”

Since
then, Tressa has battled to put her life back together and overcome her
addiction to heroin, which cost her £400 every day.

She
and her partner, Darren Young, are currently expecting their third child.

UK’s
most recent youngest mum

For
fifteen years, Tressa was the youngest mother in Britain. However, in 2021, an
11-year-old was believed to have given birth, according to The Sun.

At
the age of ten, the girl—who remained anonymous for legal reasons—was s*****y
assaulted.

Her
family was unaware of the horrifying attack, and social services looked into
the matter at the time.

“It has come as a big shock,” a family
friend said in 2021 to The Sun.

“She’s now being surrounded by expert
help. The main thing is that she and the baby are OK.”

Father
with a baby face

The
story went viral when it was announced that 13-year-old Alfie Patten was going
to become a father.

Even
the prime minister at the time, David Cameron, offered his thoughts on the 2009
case, in which it was alleged that the father had fathered a child before
reaching the legal age to buy party poppers.

The
Tory leader stated at the time, “I
just thought how worrying that in Britain today children are having children.”

At
the age of twelve, Alfie had intercourse with his then-girlfriend Chantelle
Steadman, then fifteen, during a sleepover in Lower Dicker, East Sussex, and
believed he had gotten her pregnant.

However,
six weeks after Maisie was born, a DNA test revealed he wasn’t the biological
father. The child’s true father was later reported to be 14-year-old Tyler
Barker.

Alfie
said, “I was devastated,” to
The Sun in 2014. “It was too much
to take in. I cried for days and barely left my room.”

“To make things worse I never saw Maisie
again because Chantelle and her family moved away as soon as they found out I
wasn’t the dad.

“I couldn’t face doing anything. I
couldn’t go to school. I thought my world had ended.”

By 2019, Alfie was out of
work, struggling with alcoholism, and having legal issues.

He
was already serving a suspended sentence for shoplifting, theft, and possessing
an imitation firearm when he crashed cars, leading to his conviction for
criminal damage.

He
and his mother were expelled from their house in March 2021 due to suspected drug
peddling, according to the Daily Mail.

UK’s
youngest father

In
1998, Sean Stewart was thought to be the youngest father in Britain prior to
Alfie’s case.

When
he became pregnant at the age of 11, it was with Emma Webster, his 15-year-old
neighbor next door.

A
month after turning twelve, Sean’s son Ben Louis was born, and he was
subsequently granted a day off from school.

When
they started dating, the pair was living next door in the Bedfordshire village
of Sharnbrook.

At
the time, it was said that Sean would climb over the roof to see Emma.

She
remarked to The Sunday Telegraph at the time, “He said he was 12, I’d never have gone out with him if I’d known he
was 11.”

Emma
then got married to someone else and moved into a £200,000 house.

Sean
spent some time attending his local school before leaving Bedfordshire in his
early adolescence.

He
was incarcerated for seven months in the late 2000s on suspicion of stealing,
according to the Daily Mail.

Emma
remarked at the time, “I don’t know
where Sean is or what he is doing,” because she intended to go back to
school when the baby was born.

“I don’t want to talk about it anymore
because I don’t think it helps Ben.”

World’s
youngest mum was five

When
Lina Medina gave birth in Peru 82 years ago, she was only five years old.

Lina
Medina, a Peruvian woman who gave birth in 1939 at the age of five, is the
youngest mother in history.

The
89-year-old Medina suffered from “precocious
puberty,” a disorder that causes puberty to start earlier than usual.
Under the age of eight is deemed “precocious”.

The
father’s identity has never been made public.

Despite
being detained on incest charges, her father was later freed because there was
insufficient proof.

Teenage
couples of a comparable age who have consensual s*x in the UK and are under the
legal consent age of 16 are unlikely to face legal action.

But
all s****l activity with children under the age of 13 is illegal.
