John Simm discovers dad is not his biological father
The actor John Simm has discovered that his late dad, Ronald, is not his biological father.
The Life on Mars and Doctor Who actor, 54, delved into his ancestry alongside Philip Glenister, 61, his close friend and former colleague, in ITV’s DNA Journey with Ancestry and found “astonishing” results.
“It spun my world, and everything I thought I knew wasn’t real,” the actor said following the revelation.
In the first episode of the show’s fifth series, Simm is seen taking a DNA test that reveals Ronald Simm, his late musician father, is not biologically related to him.
The actor, who said he only did the show as “a favour for Phil Glenister so he didn’t have to do it on his own”, then embarks on discovering his new biological line and the story of the biological father he never knew.
The pair are seen navigating the revelations together, including Simm’s first meeting with the half-sister he learns about after taking the test.
