一位29岁的失业小伙子在他14岁的女儿生下小孩后,成为英国最年轻的祖父之一。

However, nurses at the maternity unit were left embarrassed after they thought the young grandfather was in fact the teenage father of Gracie.
然而,当妇产科的护士发现这个年轻的小伙子的确是Gracie的祖父时,十分尴尬。

A week after Gracie was born Tia celebrated her 15th birthday in the ward surrounded by friends and family.
