The first thing she said wasn’t Hello, or How are you, the first thing she said was I’m sorry. This has obviously been tearing her up for years. Best of luck and much happiness to them all.
@@sophielove7896 she wasn't adopted (Nicky Campbell who co-presents this programme with her, was adopted). However she had a very complicated relationship with her mum and never lived with her. She was brought up by her dad's side of the family. Her mum later sold stories on Davina and they never spoke again after that, before she died.
This is heartbreaking. When she said I went back to get you 3 or 4 times broke my heart. Bless all of them. Least they are together now and the mother whose heart was broken she can die peacefully knowing her children are happy and she got to meet them. Beautiful ending
That moment at 8:07 the look in the mothers face, a look of heartache that has been with her for all those years, begging for forgiveness, a real heartbreaking reaction to witness.
Maybe biologically but some mothers don’t want their kids and give them a hellish life punishing them for her actions. I speak from bitter experience. I used to shout at mine that I didn’t ask to be born.
We onlx see the stories with a happy ending wich is great but don't forget there are people who don't absolutely care about there children or don't wanna meet with unknown relatives.
My dad had bad experiences, both meating his biological father and mother. I met his biological dad, and besides the fact that they looked so much alike, there was nothing similar about them. My dad is the warmest and most loving person you will ever meet. Despite not being put with the best foster parents. So yes, not all of the stories end up like this. But I just can't stop watching the ones that do.
And sometimes women don’t want to be moms. But most of the time they do what they need to do so their children have better than they could ever do for them
It must be very difficult to be married to someone looking for this kind of closure. It makes me very sad that adoptive children are so intent on finding their biological parents. I wish they were happy in their adoptive situations, but I guess, being totally ego driven creatures, biological needs make us do this.
Wow your comment it's what adoption isn't about...😢Adoption isn't about the parents or adoptive family but about the best interest of the children...🙄 If non adopted people like to know and build their family tree why on earth an adopted person would not want the same ...?😳 Not adopted child owes anything to the adoptive family it's not charity it's love!!😬 😮
The thing is 50 years ago the world was different. There wasn't the support either financial or emotional. You were basically ostracised. I agree with you. Nothing would make me give up a child, but society could have made it impossible for you to give them any sort if life. Different world then.
Believe me when I say you don’t know that for sure. I was adopted at 2 weeks old. My birth mother was 14 when she had me because I was the product of r*pe. She was a helpless child and I was a reminder of what happened to her. I found her when I was 23 and we exchanged a couple letters before we met in person. She was so apologetic but I wasn’t mad. How could I be mad at a 14 year old giving up her rapist’s baby for adoption? You don’t know until you’ve been through it.
Why do I keep watching these beautiful reunions? It's so bittersweet and the healing part is the most rewarding
You've just answered the question that I've been asking myself as well. It's the healing that gives a good feeling.
I stumbled upon this video and I wasn't ready for the level of emotion.... it was really powerful

They live with guilt . Such pain for so many years .
Genetics is so amazing. Seeing how they all look alike is so cool.
'Were you happy?' Oh, I can't see through the tears! I am so glad they are reunited atlast 💗
Whoever that woman who presents this show is, she was obviously born to do this show, so warm, caring and professional.
That's Davina McCall
I think was also adopted so she knows all too well the situations and feelings of these people
Davina McCall. She's very famous in UK

She looks exactly like her mum💖
A mother will always be mother no matter what happens

The hosts said that in one interview and it really is heartbreaking

I cant stop crying x i Hope they have a great life together x
What a beautiful story,
She's the spitting image of her mother.
❤😊lovely.
C'est tellement touchant.
Sharon really looks like her mom
And sometimes women don’t want to be moms. But most of the time they do what they need to do so their children have better than they could ever do for them
There was no explanation as to how they were separated in the first place. This story is incomplete, leaving me confused.
If I remember rightly, her husband was very abusive. He had passed at this point.
😭😭🤧❤️
What season was this?
S3E6 😊
Why did the mother choose not to find her children?
The husband was very abusive and she didn't have the financial means to leave him and didn't want the children brought into the hell she lived in..
If you watch the video, they weren’t formally adopted, so there was no way for the mother to trace them.
Adrian and Sharon are twins?
No , Adrian is older . They found each other first . I assume that was an earlier program .

She can't even look them in the eyes. I'd be careful.

What a bizarre comment. Zero compassion

If someone had put me up for adoption then apologised for it I wouldn’t have forgiven them and would have cut off any means of contact with them
No one cares. Stay miserable.

If you werent adopted how do you know how you would feel
Believe me you wouldn’t
