Adoption reunions don’t always turn out well, and they can have unintended consequences. The following is a teaser from an article in the April 7, 2009 edition of the Mirror, titled “My adopted son came home… and nearly ended my marriage.”
A reunion with a long-lost family member may seem like a cause for joy – but things don’t always turn out the way you planned.
When Philippa Hope found the son she’d put up for adoption 23 years earlier, it had a catastrophic impact on her marriage.
Having given up Anthony when she was just a teenager, she’d gone on to marry Rick Hope, 40.
But when Anthony found her, it almost ended their marriage.
