A pensioner who was raped as a child by an Irish nun has now reconnected with the daughter he never knew he had, thanks to a Liveline appeal.
William Hayes appeared on Liveline on Monday to tell is tale of abuse at the hands of the Catholic Church, and how he was raped by an Irish nun in the UK while he was in his early teens. Hayes, now in his 70s, says he was abused and raped by a nun from when he was 12 years old, and had a child with a nun, who subsequently left the order because of this, when he was just 14.
