No-one must ever know this

Teresa Weiler’s discovery of her birth parents’ shocking secret led her to make profound decisions about her own future. Dr Sian Williams hears her story.

In the late 1950s a newspaper ran this small ad: 'Can Catholic people in London or the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Counties offer a permanent home for an attractive baby girl aged one year who is above average intelligence?’ That girl was Teresa Weiler, who was subsequently adopted and raised in a loving family home. Twenty years later she went to read her adoption file. Alone in a room with those documents and totally unprepared, she discovered a terrible secret about her birth parents that would reverberate through her whole life and lead her to make a profound decision. Yet she told no-one about it for decades. Dr Sian Williams hears her story.
