One of Britain's "first openly gay dads"—one half of a my-two-dads couple—has now found love again...with his daughter's ex-boyfriend.

Barrie Drewitt-Barlow confirmed his engagement to Scott Hutchinson via Instagram.


Barrie met Scott Hutchinson when Hutchinson was dating his 20-year-old daughter, Saffron.

Hutchinson also declared his love in return for Barrie via Instagram.

"You know what," wrote Hutchinson, "After reading everything I read in the papers or what I hear! Nothing will ever change!"

"I'll love this man til the day I die ! He's changed me in so many ways and turned me into someone know one will ever understand!"



The UK is familiar with the Drewitt-Barlows after their landmark case in LGBTQ+ rights.

Tony, Barrie's ex, and Barrie were the first gay fathers both listed on the birth certificate as legal parents of their children, Saffron and Aspen, whom they welcomed via surrogate.

In May, Barrie and Scott Hutchinson announced that they were reportedly expecting triplets via a surrogate.

But that news changed recently, and the couple are now expecting only one child.


The couple have not received any resistance from their daughter, despite having dated Hutchinson herself.

"Scott is one of my best mates and I am happy that he and daddy can finally feel comfortable enough to talk about their relationship," she posted on Instagram, according to 7 News Australia.



The entire family lives together in Barrie's house in Florida, including Tony Drewitt-Barlow, Barrie's ex, and Hutchinson.

Many happy returns to this close family.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
