Archbishop of Canterbury is stunned to discover he is the illegitimate son of Churchill's private secretary.

The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has confirmed that he is the illegitimate son of a one-time private secretary to Winston Churchill.

Welby, the most senior figure in the Anglican Communion consisting of some 85million Christians globally, said the news had come as a 'complete surprise'.

The 60-year-old only made the discovery in the last four weeks - but insisted tonight he was not disturbed by it.

'In the last month I have discovered that my biological father is not whiskey salesman Gavin Welby but, in fact, the late Sir Anthony Montague Browne. 

'This comes as a complete surprise,' Welby said in a highly unusual statement issued through the Church of England.

'I know that I find who I am in Jesus Christ, not in genetics, and my identity in him never changes.'

Welby had assumed that his father was Gavin Welby.

But the Telegraph approached him saying it had found evidence suggesting that Montague Browne was actually his father.

Montague Browne, who had one other child, a daughter named Jane Hoare-Temple, died in 2013.

According to the newspaper, the family had long discussed the striking resemblance between the Archbishop of Canterbury and Montague Brown - and Welby himself was aware of the rumours. He had even met the man who would later turn out to be his father as a child.

Na waohhhhhhhh........I think we should all do a DNA test to find if truly our fathers are the right ones......lolsssss
