How did Holly Willoughby react to Joe Donor?

Sperm donor “Joe” said he keeps a spreadsheet about his successes, most of which are by natural insemination.

But he also described the danger he sometimes faces, and recounted stories of being held at gunpoint.

“As you know in the United States everyone has a gun,” he said.

“Sometimes the partners come home and ‘oh my God, what’s going on here?’ and the guns come out and that’s when I try to leave.”

A stunned Holly said.  “Oh my God, that is horrific.”

What did Joe Donor say to Holly Willoughby on This Morning?

Joe boasted that he averages 10 pregnancies a year, and even in lockdown he’s been busy.

He told Holly and co-host Phillip Schofield he wears a mask during sex and engages in positions that lessen the risk of transmission.

“I’m creating lives, but I’m not driving a Rolls-Royce to the golf course,” he said.

Joe also explained that during lockdown he found himself in Argentina and predicts that he helped to create five pregnancies during that time.

What did This Morning viewers say?

Viewers quickly responded to the segment with opinions of their own.

“I think we all know what Joe Donor was getting out of what he does,” one wrote.

“Tripping across America and round the world, expenses paid jumping into bed with lots of women.”

Another said: “I don’t know how you kept straight faces with Joe Donor.

“It’s really quite uncomfortable listening to him. He clearly has a sex addiction, and lots of money to be able to do this.”
