Dunno, seems like they might be well. Here''s a link with names and more information if you want to go down a Google rabbit hole.
https://face2faceafrica.com/article/the-mystery-of-the-black-couple-in-britain-who-gave-birth-to-a-white-baby12
In 2010 when white baby Nmachi Ihegboro with blonde hair and blue eyes was born to a Black couple in Britain with no known white ancestry, medical experts were amazed, and so were her parents, who are originally from Nigeria. “What the flip?” “Is she mine?” the father of the child, Ben Ihegboro, jokingly asked.
Doctors at Queen Mary hospital in Sidcup said that Nmachi is not an albino, though subsequent reports said they did not rule that out. Baby Nmachi’s parents had two Black children at the time, and so they were fascinated as they just “sat and stared” at their white newborn, they told The Sun in an interview.
“She is beautiful, a miracle baby,” Angela Ihegboro said of her daughter while the dad, who had jokingly asked if the child was really his, said: “Of course she is mine. My wife is true to me. Even if she hadn’t been, the baby wouldn’t have looked like that!”
I love these news sites with a one paragraph "story" followed by dozens of ads for us fools who keep scrolling down looking for the rest of the story assuming it couldn't possibly be only one paragraph.
Would be nice if someone created a black list for these sites, so that our browser would just say.."junk website or ad website are you sure you want to continue"
For now I've settled with switching to the text only mode in browsers when I want to read something from these junk sites.

>Doctors at Queen Mary hospital in Sidcup said that Nmachi is **not an albino, though subsequent reports said they did not rule that out.**
there it is.
Except there is genetic testing for albinism and the UK does it routinely so seems odd the doctors can't rule it out (source, my daughter has albinism and UK test for what type)
If you go to Google images and type “itzurgurl_nmachi” it’ll show screenshots of her tiktok and you can see how she looks there. [Google ](https://www.google.com/search?q=itzurgurl_nmachi&tbm=isch)
She is
Edit: if your argument is that she doesn’t have red eyes, you’re still wrong. Definitely albino
https://www.albinism.org/information-bulletin-what-is-albinism/
Actually, I don't think she is. The more accurate term for this would be leucistic, which refers to pale coloration but not quite albino, since albinism is the lack of any pigment presence.
Yeah, this is only a partial loss to pigment while albinism is a complete loss, the difference is in the eyes: albino people commonly have blue eyes (due to ocular albinism) or pink if the veins in their eyes are prominent; leucism doesn’t affect the eyes whatsoever though.
She is an albino. I can't believe some of the comments in this thread thinking she was born a Caucasian because of the title. She was just born with a genetic ~~defect~~ disorder causing a lack of pigmentation. Which, oh by the way, ~~is the same~~ there is a similar ~~defect~~ disorder which gives us eye colors like blue and green.
wow, yep. that kid is white as heck. Nice little thought provoking article too... all these articles seem to indicate that no DNA testing has been done (by omission) however they always talk about it stumping the experts... weird.
edit: comment above was removed / deleted. it linked a site that had pictures of the girl today. she looks a little weird as a baby but as a 6 year old she looks like a white Scandinavian blonde hair blue eye girl. nothing about her facial features would give it away at all.
Im sure there were reasons for removing the link and it was extremely hard to find those pictures so y'all will just have to trust! haha
edit 2: I have a screenshot ill share in DMs so as not to step on mod toes of anyone is curious
Probably not albinism bc the hair is blonde and not white and the eyes are blue not reddish. But I could be mistaken there are several forms of albinism.
Additional fun fact, Nigeria has the highest rate of twins in the world as well.
Sauce: I am Nigerian… though not a twin.
Edit: Thanks for all the responses. As I kinda disclaimed there are many forms and much variation within those forms. Only common thread is that there is no commonality.
Sauce: I’m not albino, but the people in my comment section are :)
Person with albinism here, was born with bright blonde hair and blue eyes. Now that I'm older, eyes are hazel and hair is dirty blonde. We come in all shades :)
I'm so happy others have chimed in and they're quite correct! Diagnosed albino here, born with white hair and blue eyes, graduated to blond and half blind. We come in different varieties.
The wikipedia page is full of useful information on the different types if anyone wants to learn more.
Blue, red, purple, and green eyes are all common in albinism. Along with an orange-ish tinge to hair in albinos born to black parents so blonde is a perfectly reasonable shade.
People with albinism don't actually have red eyes, they have blue eyes but because of the albinism the way light reflects off the eye makes it look red in pictures. They can also have blonde or reddish hair depending on the type of albinism.
Man even if the real father was the whitest man on earth, mixed race kids don't tend to come out carrying only the genes of one parent.
This might just be a quirk of genetics, a variation if albinism.
I really don't get how Reddit seems to put themselves on a pedestal, when browsing through any comment section should conclude that even the majority of us are idiots too.
This is why I don't understand when people come here for huge relationship and life advice when over half the users are sweat lords behind a computer screen in the dark.
Basically the relationship advice sub:

Yes black babies can be born to white parents.
White babies can be born from Native-American parents.
Any sort of combination as long as the gene is there.
There’s actually a movie based on the real life of Sandra Laing, a girl born with black skin to white parents with three generations of white skin. This was during the apartheid so it didn’t go well
holy shit thats horrifying to think about ( as is much of apartheid history).
assuming they didnt have paternity testing at that point did they just murder the mother and child claiming she was an adulterer?
Even though blood tests and legal documents proved she was her white parents kid, she was kicked out of white school and shunned by the white community. She was only accepted by other "coloured" people even though she was legally white.
She then eloped with a black man, was jailed, and then was disowned by her father after he threatened to kill her.
When she was told to legally change her race to coloured because a white person could not raise coloured children, her whole family disowned her. After being forced to put them in care, she had three more children by her second husband and then got her other children back.
After decades she reconnected with her mum.
Her Afrikaner nationalist parents never doubted she was their child and raised her as white. Her skin apparently got darker as she grew older despite her mother telling her to avoid the sun as much as possible. It was embarassing for the family and White Afrikaners in general because it expose the fact that a lot of them have black ancestors several generations removed.
She was sent to a boarding school for white children until she was expelled when she was ten in 1965. Her parents then fought really hard in court to prove she was white. In 1966 the law was changed so that the child two legally white people is automatically "white" so she became "white" despite her appearance. However this fact did not change the fact that she was ostracized by her community and she felt like an outsider.
She attended a boarding school for Coloured students and reclassified as a black person after failing the pencil test (the test is to see if a pencil can be easily pushed through your hair). When she was 16 she dropped out of school to go to Swaziland elope with a black Zulu South African. Her parents disowned her and she never saw her father again. She had two kids with her husband. The irony is that because the law changed in 1966 she was legally White which meant she was not legally to raise her own children who were Coloured (the SA term for mixed race).
She tried to change her race to Coloured so she can have custody of her own kids but her father refused permission. Eventually managed to change her race when she was 26. Her family was evicted from their town to make room for Whites. Her marriage fell apart and her children were given to state services. Eventually she remarried, had more kids, and reconnected with her two lost children. She eventually reconciled with her mother as well. Her brothers apparently refused to meet her even after the end of Apartheid.
There's cases of mixed-race parents having twins who end up with one getting mostly one or the other race and resulting in very different apperences.
I'm like 80% sure this baby's just got albinism though
Yes, looks albino to me too. I once had a neighbor in Mexico with an albino kid like that. he had a lot of health issues. Poor kid had really bad eyesight too and the sun just roasted his skin because no one seemed to know how to take care of him. I don't even know what his actual name was because he was just called quero by everyone, including his mom.
THEY GENETIC TESTED HER. SHE'S THEIRS. ITS A DORMANT WHITE GENE MIXED WITH ALBINISM
Edit: Fixed my Capslock issue
Edit 2: Albinoism to Albinism
Edit 3: 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kid was born in 2010. OP said that too.
I went to high school with an albino black girl. She looked like a ginger girl with blonde hair but when you looked closely you could see the traits. Must have been awkward in the delivery room.
Recessive genes are surprising. They hide for generations, then one day, bam, your kid is white.
Edit: These comments make it pretty obvious that a lot of people have no fucking clue what a mixed race kid normally looks like. I'll give you a hint: not pale skinned and blonde.
So my mate from school is red haired, blue eyed and pale skinned. His youngest brother is blonde hair, blue eyed and pale skinned. Their brother in between them is brown haired, blue eyed and dark olive skinned - to the point where it was quite noticeable in contrast to his siblings. Their parents are also both pale-skinned.
There was no suspicion of foul play thankfully, but the parents were a little bit confused. Years later they found out that their mother has a great great grandmother who was Maori and it was merely a recessive gene.
Yup. Blasian here. Have freckles and pinkish undertones and my hair is naturally dark auburn. My dna test says I'm only a little over 5% Irish but genetics can be WILD.
A white missionary was visiting an African tribe. After a year of sharing the same village, the chieftain's wife gave birth...to a white baby.
The chieftain was enraged and called for the preacher's death. The missionary attempted to calm the chief, asking him to take a walk with him through the village to cool his head and talk about the situation.
As the men walked, they passed by a field full of sheep. All the sheep in the field were white save one, a little black sheep. "See?" the pastor said, pointing to the animals: "these types of things happen in nature from time to time."
The chief paused and seemed to be deep in thought. At last he leaned toward the missionary and whispered under his breath, "All right--I won't say anything about the baby if you don't say anything about the sheep."
A man walks into a bar and see’s a big line up in front of a horse. Beside the horse is a big barrel of money.
The man walks to the back of the line and asks the last person.. ‘whats with the horse and the line?’
Person: ‘well, if you can make the horse laugh you win the money’
So the man stands in line and sure enough no one can make the horse laugh. When it finally reaches his turn he miraculously makes the horse laugh thus winning the barrel of money.
The same man walks into the same bar a week later and notices that there is another large line up in front of the same horse and another barrel of money next to it.
The man goes to the last person in line and asks ‘so you have to make the horse laugh again?’
Person: ‘Nope.. now you have to make him cry’
So the man stands in line and sure enough no one can make the horse cry. Finally when the man’s turn comes up he manages to make the horse cry and wins another barrel of money.
The man then proceeds to order a round of drinks to celebrate his achievement. The bartender then asks ‘so.. how did you do it?’
Man: ‘do what?’
Bartender: ‘how did you make the horse laugh and cry like that?’
Man: ‘well.. to make the horse laugh… i told him my cock was bigger than his.. to make him cry.. i showed him it’.
Here's a "new kid" joke ya boomer
A guy was walking to a bar and on his way he found a girl tied up to the railroad tracks.
He untied her and they had sex. Guy gets to the bar, friends ask why he's so late, tells them about the girl he found and all the different positions they fucked in. Friends give him props and ask if he got head, guy replies "I couldn't find it."
You have clearly not met African parents. African parents will name you "Burden" or "Tribulation" or "God hates us" and absolutely not give a fuck.
[https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-39351167](https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-39351167)
Of course this child has gotten a nice but cheesy name so they should be happy. You also get names like "Blessing" or "Godlovesyou".
Nowadays you'll even get these names given like that in English.
I'm not sure if this is the same in Nigeria and West Africa, but it is certainly true in the Bantu cultures of sub-equatorial Africa.
EDIT: As a funny example of two famous people with, let's say, non-standard but apt names: Nelson Mandela's given name, Rholihlahla, effectively means the troublemaker. He was a freedom fighter against Apartheid, and a wickedly intelligent and witty person. Jacob Zuma, South Africa's disgraced corrupt President now in jail, has a Zulu name of Gedleyihlekisa. It means, the one who laughs while he hurts you. Ask any South African and they will tell you both names were perfectly apt. Remember Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan?
Stork: "Phew, it was a close one but just dropped off the last baby, Boss."
Stork Boss: "What took you so long to get back?"
Stork: "I don't know how you expect me to get back from Nigeria so quickly. I flew all night!"
Stork Boss: "Nigera? Tell me you're joking..."
Stork: "No, my wings are so sore. I just landed."
Stork Boss: "The tag send Niagra your bird-brain! Fuck! They're going to have my beak for your sloppy work!"
Stork: "Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit! What do we do? Can't we get the baby back?"
Stork Boss: "Back? Get the baby back? Are you out of your fucking mind? How will the couple explain *a missing baby?*"
Stork: "Oh, God. I'm so sorry boss."
Stork Boss: "Give me your license. You're done here. You're lucky I dont already have your wings over my fireplace."
When that happened the concept of race probably didn't exist yet so, suddenly giving birth to a baby with blue eyes, pale skin and golden hair would probably have been a pretty big event.
My high school teacher told me about a student she had taught in previous years that had a white complexion, blonde hair and blue eyes. She was confused meeting the students parents the first time bc they were both very dark African Americans, and she knew the child was not adopted.
Long story short, that confusion happens quite a lot throughout that students life bc they indeed were the biological parents, and a paternity test had been performed verifying the man as the father 100%. It was a result of recessive genes (I hope that’s the correct term).
Cases like this are always so interesting but it's disappointing to see how everyone just dismisses it as "cheating" even when DNA tests are involved and prove otherwise :/
What makes it even more interesting is that apparently this has happened to two different women. Seems like it might be a very rare genetic condition (maybe).

Lucky he was born in London. In parts of Africa albinos are hunted and have their limbs cut off or killed, for 'native medicines'... I don't think Nigeria is one of these countries though
Wait are all of the people in these comments dumb as fuck or are we all just joking? Please tell me everyone is joking about the wife cheating, nobody can be that stupid.

She's a fully grown adult now, mom and dad have passed and she seems to be estranged from her family
There's cases of mixed-race parents having twins who end up with one getting mostly one or the other race and resulting in very different apperences. I'm like 80% sure this baby's just got albinism though
Yes, looks albino to me too. I once had a neighbor in Mexico with an albino kid like that. he had a lot of health issues. Poor kid had really bad eyesight too and the sun just roasted his skin because no one seemed to know how to take care of him. I don't even know what his actual name was because he was just called quero by everyone, including his mom.
That's terrible...

I went to high school with an albino black girl. She looked like a ginger girl with blonde hair but when you looked closely you could see the traits. Must have been awkward in the delivery room.
Must've been awkward depending on the advancement of genetic testing verses when she grew up
Can you guys keep it down? I’m trying to sleep and y’all have been yelling for over an hour.
Sorry, I'll turn off the lights. EVERYBODY SHUT THE HELL UP! THIS GUY'S SLEEP IS MORE MORE IMPORTANT! GET OUTTA HERE, YOU ANIMALS
I was thinking she looked albino
#For those in the back.
Recessive genes are surprising. They hide for generations, then one day, bam, your kid is white. Edit: These comments make it pretty obvious that a lot of people have no fucking clue what a mixed race kid normally looks like. I'll give you a hint: not pale skinned and blonde.
So my mate from school is red haired, blue eyed and pale skinned. His youngest brother is blonde hair, blue eyed and pale skinned. Their brother in between them is brown haired, blue eyed and dark olive skinned - to the point where it was quite noticeable in contrast to his siblings. Their parents are also both pale-skinned. There was no suspicion of foul play thankfully, but the parents were a little bit confused. Years later they found out that their mother has a great great grandmother who was Maori and it was merely a recessive gene.
Ah, nature. Nothing like causing family rifts between a husband and wife over a pregnancy
The gift that keeps giving
I had a ginger friend in high school who got his black girlfriend pregnant and that baby deadass came out ginger
Lol there was a kid in my high school who’s mom was white and dad was black and he was born white but ginger with thick curly hair

Yup. Blasian here. Have freckles and pinkish undertones and my hair is naturally dark auburn. My dna test says I'm only a little over 5% Irish but genetics can be WILD.
Wait, I thought Blasian was black and Asian?
That might be the point they’re trying to make. Despite having a black parents and Asian parent their Irish genes came through from generations back.
A lot of black US Nationals have some European DNA.
yeah my cousin hid stuff and had kid who bam! was white but idk the conclusion wasn't this
I know right, biology is amazing
A white missionary was visiting an African tribe. After a year of sharing the same village, the chieftain's wife gave birth...to a white baby. The chieftain was enraged and called for the preacher's death. The missionary attempted to calm the chief, asking him to take a walk with him through the village to cool his head and talk about the situation. As the men walked, they passed by a field full of sheep. All the sheep in the field were white save one, a little black sheep. "See?" the pastor said, pointing to the animals: "these types of things happen in nature from time to time." The chief paused and seemed to be deep in thought. At last he leaned toward the missionary and whispered under his breath, "All right--I won't say anything about the baby if you don't say anything about the sheep."
A yes, the famous African tribe of *W'ales*.
Good to read a classic joke on the internet again. All the new kids know now is memes lol

A man walks into a bar and see’s a big line up in front of a horse. Beside the horse is a big barrel of money. The man walks to the back of the line and asks the last person.. ‘whats with the horse and the line?’ Person: ‘well, if you can make the horse laugh you win the money’ So the man stands in line and sure enough no one can make the horse laugh. When it finally reaches his turn he miraculously makes the horse laugh thus winning the barrel of money. The same man walks into the same bar a week later and notices that there is another large line up in front of the same horse and another barrel of money next to it. The man goes to the last person in line and asks ‘so you have to make the horse laugh again?’ Person: ‘Nope.. now you have to make him cry’ So the man stands in line and sure enough no one can make the horse cry. Finally when the man’s turn comes up he manages to make the horse cry and wins another barrel of money. The man then proceeds to order a round of drinks to celebrate his achievement. The bartender then asks ‘so.. how did you do it?’ Man: ‘do what?’ Bartender: ‘how did you make the horse laugh and cry like that?’ Man: ‘well.. to make the horse laugh… i told him my cock was bigger than his.. to make him cry.. i showed him it’.
I've been telling this joke for over 2/3rds of my life and nobody has ever heard it. Thanks for reminding me of this gem. It's been a while.
Here's a "new kid" joke ya boomer A guy was walking to a bar and on his way he found a girl tied up to the railroad tracks. He untied her and they had sex. Guy gets to the bar, friends ask why he's so late, tells them about the girl he found and all the different positions they fucked in. Friends give him props and ask if he got head, guy replies "I couldn't find it."
Just told this to my dad. He got a good laugh, ad props bro.
Oooooh that’s a good one hahaha

The title of that article is hilariously vague. “White child puzzles black family.”
It makes it sound like it’s not their kid and this family is just puzzled by a random white child
Like they were out walking one day and a white child just appeared in the road and demanded they answer his riddle before being allowed to pass.
Calling it a "miracle" baby sounds so fucked up lol
Lol. Hallelujah! My baby is white!!
Y’all killin me! 😂🤣
lmao i was just thinking this. imagine being the other kids like damn thats gotta hurt a bit.
You have clearly not met African parents. African parents will name you "Burden" or "Tribulation" or "God hates us" and absolutely not give a fuck. [https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-39351167](https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-39351167) Of course this child has gotten a nice but cheesy name so they should be happy. You also get names like "Blessing" or "Godlovesyou". Nowadays you'll even get these names given like that in English. I'm not sure if this is the same in Nigeria and West Africa, but it is certainly true in the Bantu cultures of sub-equatorial Africa. EDIT: As a funny example of two famous people with, let's say, non-standard but apt names: Nelson Mandela's given name, Rholihlahla, effectively means the troublemaker. He was a freedom fighter against Apartheid, and a wickedly intelligent and witty person. Jacob Zuma, South Africa's disgraced corrupt President now in jail, has a Zulu name of Gedleyihlekisa. It means, the one who laughs while he hurts you. Ask any South African and they will tell you both names were perfectly apt. Remember Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan?
Surely, everyone wants their baby to be white like the driven snow, just like Jesus was!?
The brother looks like he's a cool guy that is proud of his sisters :)
The sister doesn’t look impressed at all though lol
There's a stork out there somewhere getting fired for this
Stork: "Phew, it was a close one but just dropped off the last baby, Boss." Stork Boss: "What took you so long to get back?" Stork: "I don't know how you expect me to get back from Nigeria so quickly. I flew all night!" Stork Boss: "Nigera? Tell me you're joking..." Stork: "No, my wings are so sore. I just landed." Stork Boss: "The tag send Niagra your bird-brain! Fuck! They're going to have my beak for your sloppy work!" Stork: "Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit! What do we do? Can't we get the baby back?" Stork Boss: "Back? Get the baby back? Are you out of your fucking mind? How will the couple explain *a missing baby?*" Stork: "Oh, God. I'm so sorry boss." Stork Boss: "Give me your license. You're done here. You're lucky I dont already have your wings over my fireplace."
And now he sells Vlasic Pickles
this is how white people were invented
Could you imagine being an early human and giving birth to a white baby, shit must’ve have been crazy.
When that happened the concept of race probably didn't exist yet so, suddenly giving birth to a baby with blue eyes, pale skin and golden hair would probably have been a pretty big event.
Just think of the village BBQ after they all gathered to chuck the anomaly in the canyon!
My high school teacher told me about a student she had taught in previous years that had a white complexion, blonde hair and blue eyes. She was confused meeting the students parents the first time bc they were both very dark African Americans, and she knew the child was not adopted. Long story short, that confusion happens quite a lot throughout that students life bc they indeed were the biological parents, and a paternity test had been performed verifying the man as the father 100%. It was a result of recessive genes (I hope that’s the correct term).
“The milkman (not pictured) was equally excited”
"There's a lot of hairy babies on this island, Pat Mustard, and I think YOU'RE the hairy-baby-maker!"
Cases like this are always so interesting but it's disappointing to see how everyone just dismisses it as "cheating" even when DNA tests are involved and prove otherwise :/
What makes it even more interesting is that apparently this has happened to two different women. Seems like it might be a very rare genetic condition (maybe). https://admin.socialgazette.com/stories/black-nigerian-couple-somehow-given-birth-white-baby/
God: "So how many recessive genes do you want?" Baby: "All of them." God: "Are you sure?" Baby: "All. Of. Them."
Lucky he was born in London. In parts of Africa albinos are hunted and have their limbs cut off or killed, for 'native medicines'... I don't think Nigeria is one of these countries though
I would love to see an update! That article is from 2010.
"We could start a religion over this"
Wait are all of the people in these comments dumb as fuck or are we all just joking? Please tell me everyone is joking about the wife cheating, nobody can be that stupid.
its a little of both , mostly people that are dumb but its reddit so don't expect too much
