However, her husband recently admitted the fertility centres last updated him at 47 kids.
She wrote: “Would I be an [bleep] for divorcing husband over his past sperm donation.
“1. Married for 8 years, have one child (3F) together. 2. When we started dating he was very clear that he had donated sperm in the past.
“3. I never asked him how much but just assumed it was just a couple of kids. 4. Actually ask him last week and he tells me the fertility centres last updated him at 47 kids.
“I was… Not expecting that many.
“It’s clearly my fault for not asking how many. At the time, I literally said I ‘didn’t care’ about his sperm donation and ‘didn’t want to know’, so I can’t blame him for not telling me how many. I literally told him not to. But 47?! Christ!!!!
“I can’t stop thinking about all the problems this will cause when we’re older. WIBTA for divorcing him for something that he was very upfront about?!?!”
She added: “All the kids are legally entitled to his contact details when they turn 18.”
Fellow users were quick to offer their advice, with many people asking the woman whether “it really matters”.

One person wrote: “This might be an unpopular opinion but does it really matter?”
Another said: “I don’t understand how this affects your relationship at all,” while a third added: “Having 47 kids by donation really wouldn’t bother me.
“He didn’t have sex with them women and then ran off after a kid had been born. My issue would definitely be the contact at 18. That’s a lot of kids to want to join the family.”
