A woman has opened up about a secret she’s been keeping for 25 years after revealing she tampered with her parent’s birth control so she could get a baby sibling.

Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Keely explained: “When I was a little girl, me and my best friend were in my mum and dad’s bedroom. And I don’t know how she knew, [but] there were some shiny packets on the nightstand. “And she said what they were and told me what they were used for. And then there was a needle laying beside the packet. Me and my friend poked lots of holes in the packets. “Then, six months later, my mum told me she was pregnant and I was so happy, but years later my mum still says, ‘I don’t know how she happened. We were so careful.’" @mama__kee @Sam Myrick I’m sort of responsible for your existence. #sister #fyp #sorrynotsorry In the comments section, other TikTokers were left stunned by her revelation, with many saying they would never be brave enough to share that information. “The way I would have taken that to the grave,” one TikToker commented. Another wrote: “So your sister should thank you for her life. Literally.” Someone else said: “The way I’d wait for the perfect age and time to present this information to my family…. Bravo.” It was also suggested: “I hope you hold this over Sam’s head every time you need a favour.” Have your say in our news democracy.
