My ex is the most evil mum in the world – she destroyed my life with terrifying DNA trick and it could happen to any dad
WHEN Kyle Fitton's relationship with the mother of his kids broke down, he vowed he would always be in their lives.
But scheming Georgina Saville faked a DNA test and lied on a birth certificate in a bitter bid to convince him he was not the father of their youngest daughter.
The cruel deception forced Kyle, 28, into a harrowing legal battle which lasted two years and cost £30,000.
Kyle has now been reunited with his daughters after he exposed Georgina's web of lies.
His ex is now behind bars, having been jailed for three years - but fighting for the truth has left Kyle a broken man.
Now he is bravely speaking out for the first time to warn other fathers in the same position never to give up their fight.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Kyle from Southampton, says: “As far as I’m concerned she is the most evil mum in Britain.
"I can never forgive her for trying to destroy my life and that of my children.
“That woman has shown zero remorse for her actions.
“I hope telling my story will act as a warning to other parents involved in paternity disputes to double check DNA tests.

“If I hadn’t challenged Georgina’s actions and the test results through the courts she could have taken my daughter away from me forever.
“I don’t think I could have gone on if that had happened.”
Bittersweet reunion
After psychology graduate Georgina was jailed at Southampton Crown Court for perverting the course of justice and wilfully making a false declaration as to a birth, mechanic Kyle finally met his youngest daughter for the first time - shortly before her second birthday.
He also shares a five-year-old daughter with Georgina - but the children cannot be named for legal reasons.
“Just having both girls by my side is the best thing I could have ever hoped for.”
Recalling the emotional moment he eventually met his adorable daughter, Kyle said: “It was amazing for me but I was a complete stranger to her.
“We had to go at her pace, one day I got a little wave and then a high five.
“Now it’s the best part of my day. I finish work, go home and see my daughters.
“Walking in, they both shout ‘Daddy’ and it’s just a sense of relief that they are there, happy and safe.
“That makes it absolutely worth all the pain and stress.”
Kyle has struggled to explain the complex situation to his young children.
He says: “I have told my oldest that Mummy has had to go away to become a better person and she will see us when she is ready.
“But I don’t believe their mother thought about them once in all of this.
“I am worried about the impact this will have on both of them when they are old enough to understand.
"I have kept over 3,000 pages of paperwork for them to read one day so they will know the truth.”
Toxic romance
Kyle first met Georgina, 25, through mutual friends in 2018 and their eldest daughter was born in March 2019 - before their relationship began to deteriorate.
“We had spoken about having kids one day in the future, but I didn’t think it would happen that quickly," he recalled.
“We were a bit overwhelmed at first, but Georgina got a big insurance payout from a motorbike accident so we were able to buy our own place and we were happy for a while.
"I loved her.”
Kyle was shocked when Georgina announced she was pregnant again in April 2021, having assured him she was taking the contraceptive pill.
“The relationship was becoming toxic by that stage,” he explained.
“She was becoming paranoid and controlling, I wasn’t allowed any social media and she went through my phone.
“It was really embarrassing behaviour and it was getting out of hand.
"I wanted to leave multiple times but she threatened to stop me seeing our eldest daughter.”
Georgina became aggressive, shouted at Kyle when he left for work at a nearby garage and would call him hundreds of times during the day.
He says: “One day I had 26 missed calls in the space of five minutes.
“It was coercive control so we split up.”
As a result of the split, Kyle was not present when their second child was born in January 2022.
But to his horror he quickly discovered that cold-hearted Georgina had left the space for the baby's father’s name blank on the birth certificate.
She also blocked all Kyle’s attempts to see the baby.
“Every time I tried to arrange to meet my daughter her mum would come up with some excuse, she kept changing her mind and playing games.”
Then in a further twist, Georgina insisted her new boyfriend Danny Mellows was the father - and even added his name to the birth certificate.
She encouraged the older girl to call him Daddy.
Fighting back
By March 2022, furious Kyle had launched legal proceedings in the Family Court - demanding access to his children and for his name to be added to the newborn’s birth certificate.
Kyle said: “I was scared.
"She was claiming I didn’t want to be part of my kids’ lives and said she could prove the baby wasn’t mine.
“I was gobsmacked. I knew straight away she was lying.
"I knew the truth would come out eventually, I just had to bide my time."
Lawyers told Georgina to carry out a DNA test - but she created a mocked up bogus document that claiming that results showed her boyfriend Danny to be the biological dad.
Kyle disputed the dodgy document and in July 2022, another DNA test was ordered at Family Court.
The second test proved Kyle was in fact the real father - and Georgina admitted that she had ‘falsified’ the previous test result after all.
She confessed to crafting a fake result by editing a photo she found online and falsely naming Danny as the baby’s father on the birth certificate.
After being arrested, she told police officers that ‘biology didn’t mean anything’ and she had ‘made-up’ the DNA test to ‘save herself some cost’ and get Kyle ‘off my back’.
It has broken me financially, emotionally and physically but I’m glad I kept pushing and pushing until the truth came out

And then during her trial, Georgina suddenly announced that she was six weeks pregnant, hoping to avoid a prison sentence.
However Judge Peter Henry saw through her sudden announcement saying: “It wasn’t particularly sophisticated in its operation but the intention here was to thwart the proper course of justice.
“You were very far from showing any sort of remorse.
“You came across as vengeful.”
Kyle, who spent more than £30,000 on legal fees, added: “Georgina wanted to hurt me to the very end.
“Using her unborn child as a means of escaping prison is a pretty sick thing to do.
“I had to fight for the truth to come out, but if I’d given up I would have no parental responsibility for my own children.
“I used every penny I had to keep fighting for the right to be a father.
“I was not going to give up on seeing my children - ever.”

Although Georgina is now behind bars, she is already planning an appeal against her sentence and Kyle fears she will seek revenge when she is released.
“This is not the end,” he added.
“The girls will only be allowed supervised contact with her until they are 18, but I am constantly looking over my shoulder.
“I have lost all trust and I’m very jumpy.
"I am constantly worried, stressed and anxious.”
Kyle says the heartbreaking repercussions of this ordeal will haunt him in future relationships, but he is determined to raise awareness of the issue to help other men going through similar bitter custody battles.
He said: “As guys we don’t talk about abuse, we keep it to ourselves but I want to help as many other dads as I can.
“For any parent dealing with this type of thing, they need to push for the truth.

“There should be mandatory DNA testing when parents register a birth to stop this happening, because if someone doesn’t have the funds to fight in court their child could end up with a stranger or in the care system.
