Discovered an uncle I knew nothing about

In June 2023 my mother died of breast cancer, my father died in 2011 drunk driving accident. As far as I (26) knew no other close family left, a distant cousin or two maybe. Being fairly well off and starting a good career, I was fairly well set you could say. I decided to do a DNA test search, mainly because I knew so little about my family. My grandparents all passed away being 2004 and 2019. My father was usually drunk and didn't talk about his family and my mother also said nothing about her family. I thought I might find a distant cousin or two. Instead, I found I'd an uncle 48 who only lived 5 miles from me as the crow flies. Never mentioned by either parents and I was probably too young when my grandparents were alive to remember if any of them said anything. My only memories of them, is that they were always ill. So, I was shocked to learn I'd an uncle and that he lived so close by. I'd just his name age and relationship to me thru my father. My father's younger brother, as far as I knew we'd never met. I started thinking
of reasons why he might be ostracized, only one that made sense was he was gay. My family hated gays as far back as I can remember. I remember my father saying he would run over any gay he saw on a road. My mother saying ditto for me too, they never did as far as I know. Using the voter roll I found his address, not to visit him, just scope him out before making any contact. I was only given his first name and town he lived in; I reasoned he wouldn't have changed his surname even if he was gay just to annoy the family even more. Finding a match on the roll, the roll gave me his address, driving to the address expecting a house. But found instead a mansion, also my family name was on the gate, so he wasn't a servant. The area was for the real wealthy people, and they had private security driving around checking on strangers. As I was still thinking thinks over, I was approached and asked why I was looking into my uncle property. I showed my driver's license to prove I was a relative, they rang my uncle to confirm, He told them to tell me to visit him, there was no surprise in his voice in the phone. He knew I existed at least, so I drove up to his mansion. He met me at his door, I was in shock at first. He said he last saw me when I was 2, before he and the family parted ways. I asked why did you leave, and he said it was because he refused to follow family career path, they'd lined up for him. My father and both grandfathers were all lawyers, like me. Being a lawyer what I was always told I would be growing up. My uncle was a doctor/surgeon and a well-respected one at that. Never married no children, he asked me to come and live with him. I agreed. Over the time since we became lovers and I'm now 6 months pregnant with our first child a girl. We just clicked as they say, I believe if we met without a DNA search, we would've still started a relationship.
