A GIRL aged 15 got pregnant by a boy she met on Snapchat — who blocked her hours after they had sex.
The youngster then hid her pregnancy from her parents and said she had no way of contacting the dad as she could not remember his username.
Details of the “fleeting encounter” between the unnamed teenagers emerged in a judgment from the Family Division of the High Court.
The girl said she thought the brown-haired, brown-eyed lad was 16 and “seemed like a nice person” as they chatted for two hours online.
She then spent around two hours with him in Staines, Surrey, and after sex gave him directions to get public transport.
When she got home, she found he had blocked her and she had no way of contacting him.
Her baby is with foster carers who want to adopt him.
The court ruled the lad is unlikely to want involvement, so local authorities have no duty to find him.
The social media platform is most popular with Gen Z – with 90 per cent of all 13 to 24 year olds in the UK using the app.
