Woman Leaves Newborn on Business Class Plane Seat, Decides to Find Him 13 Years Later

Rhonda’s life was turned upside down when she discovered she was pregnant at 16. Her wealthy father, David Harris, was outraged and gave her an ultimatum: “Abort the baby or leave the house.” Rhonda refused to terminate the pregnancy and left home, only to be abandoned by her boyfriend, Peter. Homeless and heartbroken, Rhonda wandered the streets until she went into labor.

A kind woman named Angela Bamford found Rhonda in distress and rushed her to the hospital. After giving birth to a baby boy, Rhonda, overwhelmed with fear, left her son on a plane with a note naming him Matthew Harris, hoping someone would give him a better life.

Years later, Rhonda, haunted by guilt, sought out her son, now 13 and adopted by Lincy, the flight attendant who had found him. Matthew was furious and rejected her, struggling to understand how his mother could have abandoned him.

Over time, Matthew softened, and they began to rebuild their relationship. By the time he was 23, Matthew forgave Rhonda, realizing her actions were driven by desperation.

Now, Rhonda’s life has come full circle. She has started dating a man named Andrew and reconnected with Angela, who was pleased to see Rhonda’s progress. With perseverance and support, Rhonda mended her relationship with the son she once thought she’d lost forever.

John Ashton died peacefully in Ft. Collins, Colorado, this past Thursday. His family and friends are heartbroken over his loss.

He passed away after bravely fighting cancer, according to his representative, Alan Somers. Somers shared that Ashton’s legacy is one of “love, dedication, and service,” and his family will continue to celebrate his life. He is survived by his wife, children, grandchildren, siblings, and more.

To honor the late actor’s life and legacy, the family is asking for donations to be made to Pathways Hospice Care in his memory.

Ashton was a well-known name in Hollywood for over 50 years, lighting up screens with more than 200 film, TV, and stage performances. While fans loved many of his roles, it was his portrayal of the straight-laced detective alongside Eddie Murphy’s wild cop character, Axel Foley, that made him a household name.

Ashton’s character, Detective Billy Rosewood, provided the perfect contrast to his co-star’s character, adding energy and humor to the films.

The film was a major success and established Ashton’s name in Hollywood. In July of this year, “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” premiered. In an interview, Ashton revealed that the film had taken 20 years to make before finally being released.

He mentioned there was a lot of uncertainty surrounding the film, to the point that he had given up on the idea and moved on to other projects. By the time he received a call about the film, he was already working on another project in Chicago.

After finishing his film, he went to L.A. to meet director Mark Molloy. Ashton knew that the film could only move forward if Murphy approved the script.

He said he knew he could fully commit to the project when Murphy greenlit the script and Jerry Bruckheimer joined as a producer.

In addition to his iconic role in “Beverly Hills Cop,” Ashton also had notable appearances in the show “M*A*S*H” and played Eric Stoltz’s father in the John Hughes comedy-drama “Some Kind of Wonderful.”

He started his career at a young age, with his first professional role in a production of “Othello” at the Hartford Stage Company. He later toured the world in various theater productions.

Ashton received great recognition for his acting, including an LA Method Fest award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in “Once Upon a River.”

He also appeared in several films, including “Death in Texas” (2020), “American Christmas” (2019), and “My Little Baby” (2019), among others.

Beyond his career, he was a devoted family man. He leaves behind his wife of 24 years, Robin Hoye, and his children, Michelle and Michael Thomas Ashton.

He is also survived by his stepchildren, Courtney Donovan, Lindsay Curcio, and Ashley Hoye, as well as his grandson Henry, his sisters Sharon Ann Ashton and Linda Jean Ashton, and his brother Edward Richard Ashton.
