CELINA, 37, and husband Joseph, 44, from Colorado, had the shock of their lives when they found out after three children and 10 years of marriage, they were in fact cousins. This all started when Celina decided to look into her heritage, however she never thought she would uncover a truth that would shake the very foundations of their happy family. Celina told Truly: "We decided to do our DNA test and that's when we found out. I was a little sick to my stomach. In my head I thought we were supposed to get divorced." Despite this 'devastating' news, the couple had a loving family and decided to stay together. But when they shared their story online, they were met with a tirade of judgement and hate. The couple said: "People have called it 'sick', 'why would you marry your cousin?' It's 'disturbing' and 'disgusting', 'I'd be embarrassed if I were those kids'." Regardless of the hateful comments the family have received, Celina and Joseph remain defiant and with the support of their family, ignore the haters so they can continue their life together. Joseph added: "To the people who were giving us negative comments, it's easy to speak on the outside without knowing the whole inside story. We found out almost 11 years later, three kids later... It's just not something you break up and walk away from."
