A HARD-up labourer has moved his girlfriend and baby boy into a 1,536-acre country estate after DNA proved he is the secret son of the dead lord of the manor.

Jordan Adlard-Rogers, 31, has made himself at home at the Penrose Estate, estimated to be worth £50million, as the heir of aristocrat Charles Rogers.

Jordan and partner Katie Hubber are now reportedly settling into the manor after the shock DNA results - with the couple having recently welcomed a son Joshua. Katie, 30, recently gushed they were "over the moon" to have "such a gorgeous little boy".

The skint labourer, who once broke his back in a trampoline stunt, has bounced back spectacularly after a DNA test proved he was the son and heir of reclusive drug addict aristocrat Charles Rogers.

Jordan had suspected for years he was Charles’ son but was only able to prove it with a DNA comparison following the lord of the manor’s death aged 62 in August.

Now he has swapped his council house for the sprawling manor and a £1,000-a-week allowance.

Jordan said: “I’m not going to forget where I’ve come from.

“I’ve been at the point of worrying about the next bill and have had a tough start in life.

“I’m now starting to get my feet under the table here.

“I don’t need to work anymore so I want to set up a charity and help the community. Now I’m here I want to help people.”

Jordan has quit his job and treated girlfriend Kate to a trip to New York.

But Jordan’s good fortune is tinged with sorrow because he never got to know his father.

He said: “People say I’m lucky but I would trade anything to be able to go back and for Charles to know I was his son. Maybe then he might have taken a different path.”

Today, Jordan's childhood neighbours revealed how the young man had grown up in a cramped terrace property - a stark contrast to his new home.

Derek Richards, 76, was a neighbour of Jordan's as a boy, and said: "They lived next door about 25 years ago, he was only about six then.

"He was a lovely boy, I used to give him Mars bars through the fence.

"He was a really nice boy, he was a carer for a disabled man in town."

The former bar steward added: "I don't know how he knew Charles was his father. I knew Charles too, he had his troubles.

"I heard he tried to get a DNA test done but to no success, that's all I know.

"I don't know where his mother went after she left here."

Jordan's mother today said she did not wish to comment.

Jordan is also understood to have spent some time living with his grandparents who also own a mid-terrace house in Helston. They also declined to comment about his new-found family fortune.

THE BOING DONE GOOD

An inquest last week heard how Charles had struggled with drug abuse for many years and died of an overdose in his car outside his Grade-II listed house on the estate in Helston, Cornwall.

He was malnourished, neglected his personal hygiene, rarely changed his clothes and had taken to living in his car.

Jordan said: “I haven’t been here long and don’t know all the ins and outs but have been able to piece some of the puzzle together.

“Charles never actually lived in the estate. He lived in one of the estate’s farmhouses as his mum lived here. They died two weeks apart.

“It had got to the point when he gave up on himself and was living in his car instead of his house as it was such a mess.”

Jordan had been convinced Charles was his dad since he was a child — and once went to the house to ask him in person for a DNA test.

He said: “When I was 18 I knocked on his door and asked if I could have the test. He told me to do it through the solicitors. I was 18 so had other priorities at the time.

“I wrote more letters in my twenties but never got a reply.”

Last year Jordan wrote another letter and enclosed a DNA kit — and got a reply from a lawyer who explained Charles had died.

Once he had the DNA proof Jordan still had to overcome objections from other members of the Rogers family before he could take up his inheritance.

Now he is proudly flying the Rogers family crest from a flagpole in the grounds of the estate.

Jordan has also been showing off his good luck on social media — posting pictures of a Mercedes motor and £300 adidas Predator football boots after splashing out.

The keep fit fanatic also proudly displayed the outdoor gym he has set up on the tennis courts.

He even posted pictures of himself paddling around the lake in a canoe with the caption: “Out patrolling.”

LOCAL HAUNT

THE Penrose Manor House and Estate runs to 1,536 acres and Cornish legend says it has been haunted for centuries.

The Penroses are believed to have acquired it in the 1200s.

It is claimed Ralph Penrose took his young son plus cousin William out to sea 300 years ago — but they hit a storm and their ship was wrecked.

Ralph died, while William’s brother John saw it but did nothing to help. He is then said to have ordered the son to be killed after he scrambled ashore.

William lost his memory but later recalled the tragedy. John then hanged himself when the crime was uncovered.

Their souls apparently still haunt the estate in Helston.

The Rogers family bought it from the Penroses in 1771 for £11,000.

It was used as a British and US base in the Second World War. Lt Cmdr John Peverell Rogers then gifted much of it to the National Trust in 1974.

HEIR TO 1,536 ACRES

And Jordan proved he will not be transforming himself into a stiff upper-lipped aristo — by posting a video from inside his new mansion showing a white-haired relative dancing to a rap song.

He tagged the post: “Nan raving.”

Five years ago, a video of Jordan breaking his back during a trampoline prank went viral online.

Jordan, describing himself as The Human Cannonball, drunkenly climbed a tree before leaping 20ft down on to the trampoline.

It catapulted him into a fence, fracturing his spine.
