Originally only there were only 3 contenders: me and Dan, katie and Mike, and Joe who was then single and not ginger (but has a ginger mum.) when I wrote about this bet on my blog several other people wanted to join the ginger bet and you can read about all the contenders here
Well there have been a few updates which I'm sure you will all be egar to hear. My mum is still officially winning with two ginger children as neither of us have started going grey yet.
We have had a baby who looks like he will probably be ginger it's a bit to early to say but there's definitely a tinge of the ginge. and he looks very like me as a baby so the odds are looking good for team Jones.

Steph and Nick were in 2nd place with baby Ben was looking pretty ginger but BIG NEWS he's gone blond they've had another baby and she is very dark haired. They're a beautiful family but that's not going to help them win. They would like 2 more children so they can at best only draw. Unless they have surprise ginger triplets or whatever.

Two of the non-gingers with ginger mum's (Hazel and Joe) have got together with non-gingers, reducing they're chances of winning by a lot, and one ginger (Lydia) has also got together with a non- ginger. Not that any of these couple will necessarily go on to have children with their current partners but it's a possibility.
Katie and Mike currently remain childless, and Helen (who doesn't even have any recessive ginger but claimed she fancied gingers) has got together with a non-ginger. I'm really happy for you Helen and I think Graham is a lovely guy, but that's not going to win the bet is it. In fact I would say you are currently loosing.
Hope you all feel informed I guess I'll do another update in 2 years or so. Best of luck everyone! x
What about me and Elisha? We could have ginger kids!
