Coronavirus lockdown helps long-lost sisters make up for lost time

Sisters Margaret and Sue only met for the first time last year – they didn’t even know each other existed for more than 40 years.

Now they’re in lockdown together in New Zealand, after Sue and her husband travelled from their home in Shropshire to visit Margaret in Auckland.

Margaret was given up for adoption at two weeks old by her mum, who had a short relationship with Sue's dad in 1948.

Speaking to ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 Live Breakfast, Margaret said she has β€œabsolutely loved having these guys here”.
