An n woman has revealed she was ‘extremely horrified’ when she found out her son was fathered by a ‘serial’ sperm donor.
Netherlands sperm donor Jonathan Meijer, 43, is the subject of Netflix documentary ‘The Man With 1000 Kids’ after his obsession with donating his seed has led to concerns he has fathered over 1,000 babies.
On Monday, a woman named Laura appeared on KIIS FM’s The Kyle and Jackie O Show, to reveal Meijer was the father of her son.
Laura explained that she and her wife Kate used an international sperm bank to import the sperm donation to a clinic in the ACT and successfully fell pregnant.
Hosts Jackie O Henderson and Kyle Sandilands asked Laura how she worked out Meijer was the father of her child if sperm donor identities are usually kept anonymous until the child has turned 18.
‘My partner and I were extremely horrified and shocked because we were tipped off on a Facebook group looking for siblings. Obviously, we wanted to find siblings as soon as we could for our son,’ the mother said.
As Laura navigated the Facebook groups to find brothers and sisters across the world for her son, a fellow member of the group informed her.
‘[My son] was very small at the time, and unfortunately, someone said, “I’m really sorry to tell you this but [Meijer] is a serial sperm donor in the Netherlands and there are hundreds, if not thousands, of children out there.”‘

Jackie then asked if this was before the Netflix special was released and Laura confirmed that it predated the documentary.
The hosts then wondered if Meijer had fathered any other children in .
‘We haven’t found any others in yet, but we expect there’s up to between 5 and 10, you know, maybe 5 to 10 families in ,’ answered Laura, leaving Jackie and Kyle shocked.

Last month, the radio hosts were left stunned when Meijer hung up on them during a heated interview on their show.
Kyle did not hold back during the confrontational interview and bluntly asked Meijer why he is ‘addicted’ to donating sperm, as it could lead to future inbreeding among his children.
‘Why are you doing it, what tells you that women want your seed? I think you’re addicted,’ Kyle bluntly said.
However, Meijer was having none of it and told Kyle he was doing it because he loved helping couples out: ‘There’s an enormous shortage. There’s so few men who want to do it. I help so much.’

A furious Kyle then shot back: ‘You’re addicted to this! You’re addicted to jerking… for the ladies.’
Meijer then told the stars he was done with the chat and abruptly ended the call: ‘You know what? I’m done with this interview. Goodbye.’
Kyle told his co-star Jackie O that Meijer was a ‘seed spreading lunatic’.
Meijer is the subject of the recently released Netflix documentary titled The Man With 1000 Kids, which investigates the families who have had children by him.
He donated sperm on a mass scale, defrauding dozens of parents and eleven clinics across the globe.

In the explosive Netflix documentary investigating this ‘murky world’, women told how they felt ‘betrayed’ and ‘angry’ after discovering how many other children the now 43-year-old musician has fathered.
But in an interview Meijer, who has also been labelled a ‘public health risk’ and ‘narcissist’ claimed he had ‘no protection’ as a private donor, making him ‘very vulnerable’.
Meijer argued there was ‘absolutely nothing wrong’ with fathering hundreds of children.
However, one of the potential issues that could arise is inbreeding, if two of his children meet later in life and have children of their own, not realising they are genetic half-siblings.
Meijer was banned from donating sperm in the Netherlands in 2017, external after it emerged he was the father of 102 children, born from donations made to 11 clinics around the country.
He continued donating in other countries until 2023, when one woman and a foundation supporting her filed a civil suit against Meijer, arguing he was increasing the risk of incest for his children.
In his testimony, Meijer admitted having between 550 and 600 children – However, the court said he may have fathered up to 1,000 across several continents.
