Yes he had said the grandkids were upset that they wouldn't hear from him while he was in the house... they were happy at first lol

I never really understood how or what happened ..


He explained it all a few weeks back but I wasn’t really focused

I thought he said he’d travelled somewhere on holiday and met this younger guy.. then they formed a ‘friendship’ and somehow ended up adopting him as the guy was about 25 years younger than him .

I just presumed Richard was gay and their ‘friendship’ resulted in the adoption .


Richard didn’t show any emotion at all tonight when they showed the videoclip of his ‘son’

The whole thing sounded odd, like he adopted an adult man which i didnt think was actually possible or legal

I vaguely remember a case where before gay marriage was legalised, the older of the two in a couple adopted the other, as it was the only way they could be next of kin.

I think (hope!) the younger of the two wasn't actually a child at the time, so I assume it's legal to adopt adults? Just pretty unusual because there are hardly any situations where it would be needed.
