Arthur和Audrey是两名法国捐献者受孕者，相识并坠入爱河后面临一个独特困境：他们需要确认彼此是否存在血缘关系1。法国法律规定只有研究科学家、医生或法官可以命令和监督遗传测试1，同时严格保护捐献者的匿名性，使这对情侣难以通过正常渠道获知真相。在一名医生的违法协助下，他们最终进行了一项费用为900欧元的DNA测试1，确认彼此无亲缘关系并随后结婚。
Audrey随后提起法律诉讼，但在2015年被法国最高行政法院驳回1。这场个人经历最终产生了广泛的社会影响。参与该测试的10名捐献者受孕者中，有4人共享同一捐献者1，这一发现突显了制度透明度缺失的问题。Audrey的努力帮助推动了法国法律的修订，新规允许自2025年4月起，捐献者受孕者在成年后获取捐献者身份信息1。此前，法国是欧洲唯一将家庭DNA测试定为犯罪的国家，非法拥有此类工具可被罚款超过3500欧元1。
Arthur Kermalvezen and Audrey, two French individuals conceived through donor insemination, fell in love only to face an extraordinary legal obstacle: they had no way to confirm whether they shared the same biological father.1 France's strict regulations prohibit home DNA testing and shield donor identities from recipients, leaving the couple with few legitimate options to resolve their uncertainty.1
Unable to access genetic information through legal channels, the pair eventually underwent an illegal DNA test administered by a sympathetic doctor at a cost of €900 to confirm they were not related.1 This measure was necessary because French law permits genetic testing only under the supervision of research scientists, judges, or physicians, and violations can result in fines exceeding €3,500.1 France remains Europe's only country that criminalizes such testing, a restriction rooted in the legal principle of donor anonymity.1 The couple subsequently married, but their experience highlighted the gap in French law regarding donor-conceived adults' access to biological information.
Audrey's legal battle to challenge these restrictions contributed to significant reform.1 After her final appeal was rejected by France's highest administrative court in 2015, the case gained attention that ultimately prompted legislative change.1 Starting in April 2025, donor-conceived individuals who reach adulthood will be permitted to obtain information about their donors' identities, marking a major shift in French policy.1 Among ten donor-conceived participants in the genetic testing discussed here, four discovered they shared the same donor, underscoring how the previous lack of transparency affected multiple families.1 Advocacy group DNA Pass estimates that over one million French citizens have already undergone home DNA testing despite the legal restrictions.1
