‘Sure, he was her boyfriend at the time, so it perhaps crossed his mind to get tested to see if he was a match – which is incredibly rare – but it never got anywhere close to actually happening.
‘Selena would never, ever have asked him. She wouldn’t have even wanted him to even entertain the idea!
‘It was difficult enough for her to allow a lifelong friend to do it, but a new boyfriend? No way.’
