The couple at the centre of the Tristan Dowse adoption case have reportedly vowed to take whatever legal steps are necessary to allow the three-year-old to be re-adopted.

IT was straight to the photographers’ studio for the Dowse family when, after years of trying for a baby, they adopted a gorgeous two-month-old boy.

THE Department of Foreign Affairs was aware that three-year-old Tristan Dowse was left in an orphanage by his family a year ago, however the investigation into the legality of the adoption only began last week.
