Does Tyler Francis from Love is Blind season 7 really have kids in real life? The confession came as a shock to his on-show partner, Ashley, but here's the truth behind his kids, according to his sperm recipient.
Ashley Forgives Tyler in Love is Blind, But Does He Really Have Kids?
While Ashley did not appreciate Tyler lying to her about having kids (and even being known to be their father), she forgave him and moved past that. They end up still together in Love is Blind season 7.
However, as fans dug up Tyler's background, they found and spread photos of him allegedly spending time with the kids and their mother. Keep in mind that Tyler claimed on the show he only has kids because he was a sperm donor.
But Tyler himself has yet to address what fans found. Fortunately, the Sperm Recipient, Bri Thomas, recently broke her silence to clear the air.
Sperm Recipient Bri Thomas Breaks Her Silence
On Saturday, Bri Thomas decided to take matters into her own hands by posting multiple videos on her Instagram to explain her relationship with Tyler Francis and her three kids.
"In regards to our oldest child, Kyreaux, Tyler was initially only supposed to be helping me and my ex-wife. He was helping us conceive," Bri stated in the video, "It was understood that Tyler was not supposed to assume a father role in Kyreaux's life."
The 34-year-old added that Tyler still stepped up to the role for their 7-year-old even after her ex-wife left her to move to California.
According to Bri, Tyler insisted that Kyreaux not be raised by a single mother as he had been. This included financial responsibility, apart from being an active father in his life.
However, Bri, who identifies as lesbian, also added that she and the reality star conceived their 5-year-old twins, Kali and Kamari before Kyreaux turned 1.
Tyler had supported her throughout the pregnancy, delivery, and post-hospital birthing.
"I admit, fully admit I have not always been the most comfortable with that truth due to the fact that I've lived the majority of my life as a lesbian," Bri clarified.
She also added how hurtful it was to watch Tyler lie on TV about their relationship and his role as their active father: "I can't wrap my head around why he felt the best way to do that would be to cut off the kids."
Bri said, "I understand. This is for everyone's entertainment. But this is our real lives. And you know, it sucks. It really sucks."
The most that Tyler Francis offered in response to the public is, "That is not facts," he replied to a fan who claimed he was 'trying to delete his past', "Just be patient, I'll explain it all very soon."
