See Britains Youngest Father and Girlfriend, aged 12 and 16yrs.

Sean Stewart became the youngest father in Britain on March 20th when his girlfriend gave birth to a healthy son. Sean is 12 and girlfriend Emma Webster is 16-year-old girlfriend

The pair, who are neighbours at Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire, were 11 and 15 when Emma became pregnant. Sean and his mother moved next door to the Websters in November 1996 and he became Emma’s boyfriend shortly after that. He is a 7th year at Margaret Beaufort School in the nearby village of Riseley. Emma is studying for her GCSEs – including one in child care – at Sharnbrook Upper School.

Last summer, Sean said he would stand by Emma and be there for the baby. “I was shocked at first when I was told Emma was pregnant but I am all right about it now.” Emma said she thought Sean had told her he was the same age as she was when they started going out.
