So Lewis hadn't known about their baby, but he knew Jennifer really well.
So perhaps he can shed light on why Jennifer had a baby in secret and then pretended to find her.
We know that Jennifer and Lewis have seen each other since their relationship ended in 1987.
In the NHS clinic, of course, but also at her home when he delivered her a Christmas card.
And speaking to Lewis, I get the sense that they've definitely stayed in touch.
How often would you see her in the intervening years, roughly?
So what's your feelings about the fact that she didn't?
Even if there'd been no baby, no Jess, his ex-girlfriend counselling his daughter, Chloe, it's still a conflict of interest.
Think of it from Chloe's point of view.
Were you concerned about the impact it might have had on Chloe if she was to have found out about your previous relationship with her counsellor?
Did that cross your mind?
Did you ever go into the counselling room?
I know Debbie did.
He tells me something else about those times at the NHS clinic, that he actually sat in on a session with Chloe and Jennifer.
I asked Debbie about this, but she doesn't recall Lewis ever joining one of Chloe's sessions.
Still, I can't get my head around it, that he thought it was OK for Jennifer to be involved in Chloe's care in any way.
But even more, that Jennifer did, an expert on this stuff.
I tell him I'm sorry for his loss and that Chloe sounded like a great person.
This is Janet Barnacote.
She's another foundling who lives in North Dakota.
