An 11-year-old girl is now the youngest mother in UK history, giving birth earlier this month without her family knowing she was pregnant, reports *The Sun*. Both mother and baby are healthy.

Social services are investigating how the pregnancy went unnoticed. “It has come as a big shock. She’s now being surrounded by expert help. The main thing is that she and the baby are OK,” a source said.

The previous record was held by Tressa Middleton, who gave birth at 12 in 2006. In 2014, the UK’s youngest parents were a 12-year-old mother and 13-year-old father.

The parents of the upcoming father were utterly distraught. The young couple’s journey was documented on national television even before their daughter’s birth. Alfie displayed remarkable composure while caring for the infant. Amid the turmoil, a DNA test was demanded by the father’s parents, revealing that the child was not biologically his. Alfie spiraled into a deep depression after the young mother and child decided to leave town, facing relentless media attention that refused to give the couple any respite.

A dozen years later, the young woman had another child, this time with a different man. Meanwhile, Alfie had never encountered true love, his solace found in the grip of alcoholism. Regrettably, the man had amassed a record of twelve offenses, with an ongoing investigation into his actions.

Is it socially acceptable or inappropriate to become parents at such a young age?
