A daughter from the second marriage of John Earnest Deaves is devastated by her father’s incestuous relationship with his daughter from his first marriage.
Deaves’ third wife, Dorothy, said Deaves’ youngest daughter, from his second marriage, had not known of his relationship with her half-sister until it was aired on television this week.
Deaves and his daughter from his first marriage, Jennifer Anne Deaves, have had two children from their eight-year affair, with one child, a girl, dying a few days after birth from a congenital heart disease.
The couple claim they had virtually no contact until they started their relationship after being reunited in 2000, almost 30 years after Mr Deaves separated from Jennifer’s mother.
But Dorothy, who runs a wildlife sanctuary in South Australia, says that’s not true.
When Dorothy became Deaves third wife in 1984, Jennifer, then aged 15, stayed with them for a week, she said.
“He definitely had contact with Jenny when he was married to Pam (his second wife), and she stayed with us for a week when we got married - until 2000 she stayed with us four times,” Dorothy told AAP.
Deaves’ first wife Joan was appalled by his affair with their daughter, Dorothy said.
“She’s not too good, and his other daughter is devastated.
“It’s brought the rest of us all together. I’m close to his sister now, and I had lost track of Pam. Now we are back in contact. I’ve always talked to Joan.”
Dorothy said the incestuous relationship between father and daughter began in 2000 when Deaves went on a trip to Dubbo Zoo.
“When they got back here he informed me it was the best sex he ever had.
“If that doesn’t degrade you I don’t know what does. It was my second marriage, and you feel like … you get a very poor opinion of yourself.”
