English-born Kim West fell pregnant while studying in the US and gave her son up for adoption after giving birth at just 19 years old.
After 30 years apart Kim was reunited with son Ben Ford in 2014 and the pair got together, with the mum revealing they had been enjoying “incredible and mind-blowing” sex ever since.
Now Ben, 32, has left his wife and moved in with his 52-year-old mum in Michigan where they hope to start a family and get married .
But after speaking about their love for each other and revealing their plans to have a baby , the couple have now gone to ground as US authorities became aware of their relationship.
If a member of the public was to complain about the couple, US police would be duty bound to investigate.
Under Michigan law consensual incestuous relationships between adults are punishable by up 15 years in prison.
Under the State’s legislation criminal sexual conduct in the third degree is committed when “the other person is related to the accused by blood or affinity to the third degree.”
A spokeswoman for Michigan State police told the Mirror: “Under State law incest between two consenting adult is a third degree felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
“Anyone convicted of such an offence would also be required to sign the sex offenders register for life.”
The spokeswoman said she was “not aware” of any complaint being received.
After Ben was adopted West, who grew up in Islington, returned back to the UK.
But in December 2013, she received a letter from her son, who was looking to track down his biological parents.
At the time he was happily married and living in Colorado.
A month after getting in touch the mother and son arranged to meet sharing their first kiss after enjoying a bottle of champagne in a hotel.
Two years on Ben, a freelance computer coder, has left his wife and set up home with his mother in Michigan.
They insist their relationship is not incest, but instead is ‘Genetic Sexual Attraction’, a term used for relatives who feel sexual attraction for each other after meeting as adults.
Kim said: “This is not incest, it is GSA. We are like peas in a pod and are meant to be together.
“I know people will say we’re disgusting, that we should be able to control our feelings, but when you’re hit by a love so consuming you are willing to give up everything for it, you have to fight for it.
“It’s a once in a lifetime chance and something Ben and I are not willing to walk away from.”
Ben added: “When I met Kim, I couldn’t think of her as my mum but instead as a sexual being.
“I had seen a therapist at an adoption support group and had learnt about the GSA phenomenon.”
The say they would like to marry however such weddings are banned throughout America.
They also want to try for a baby but have said they will consider surrogacy if they are unable to have a biological child.
The couple say they are prepared to leave Michigan to avoid being arrested. Only two states allow adult incest.
Rhode Island repealed its criminal incest statute in 1989 and New Jersey law imposes no criminal penalties for incest where both parties are adults.

[MUST READ] Mother says sex with her son is 'incredible' as she reveals they're planning marriage and trying for baby
Ben Ford, who ditched his wife when he met his mother Kim West after 30 years, claims what the couple are doing 'isn't incest'
A mother reunited with the son she gave up for adoption 30 years ago says now they’re in love - and trying for a baby together.
Kim West, 51, has been in a relationship with her biological son Ben Ford, 32, for two years and believe they are ‘meant to be’ after she was forced to give him up for adoption just a week after he was born.
But the couple, who say their sex life is ‘incredible’ and are planning to get married, insist their relationship is not incest, the New Day reports.
Instead they claim it is ‘Genetic Sexual Attraction’, a term used for relatives who feel sexual attraction for each other after meeting as adults.
The couple were brought together after Ben, who was living in the US, sent his England-born mum a letter out of the blue in 2013.
Two years before Ben had married his wife Victoria, who he later split up with to be in a relationship with his mum.
Kim gave up Ben for adoption when he was just a week old and they were only reunited 30 years later.
The pair began exchanging phone calls before agreeing to meet up, Kim saying it was like they had ‘known each other for years’.
Interior designer Kim started to realise her attraction to her son and found herself having 'sexy dreams' about him.
Feeling confused about the attraction, Kim decided to look it up on the internet and came across an article on Genetic Sexual Attraction (GSA), and felt like a weight had lifted.
The pair agreed to meet at a hotel where they ordered alcohol and after a bottle of champagne shared their first kiss.
The couple, who are biologically related, are planning to get married and have a baby together.
Ben told her he felt relieved and that he had stopped having feelings for his wife before the pair went on to have sex a number of times.
Three days later Ben told a disgusted Victoria he was leaving her for his mum and the couple flew to Michigan, where they had help from another GSA couple in setting up a new life.
Kim told the New Day sex with Ben was "incredible and mind-blowing".
She said: "This is not incest, it is GSA. We are like peas in a pod and meant to be together.
"I know people will say we're disgusting, that we should be able to control our feelings, but when you're hit by a love so consuming you are willing to give up everything for it, you have to fight for it.
"It's a once in a lifetime chance and something Ben and I are not willing to walk away from."
