Quote:Mr Langridge and Mr Keeble met the women in a gay nightclub in Southend in 1997, and became good friends.
When one of the women revealed she was desperate to have children Mr Langridge agreed to help, as long as there were no strings attached.
‘I did not ask for anything to be documented legally and with hindsight perhaps I should have done,’ he said.

...

The two couples eventually drifted apart, and apart from occasional letters from the girls Mr Langridge has had no contact with the family since 2004.

...

In the intervening years the lesbian couple separated, leaving the biological mother with both children. She has since started claiming benefits from the State.
Mr Langridge received his letter from the CSA in June.
He said the biological mother’s former partner continues to live near the former family home and sees the girls at weekends – but is not being chased for child support.
He stressed that he made sure the couple had the funds to bring up children before he donated his sperm.
