Episode 2 follows three families who have faced challenges building their new relationships. Our first story catches up with Brenda Rhensius who approached us 8 years ago hoping to find her daughter Joanne. Amazingly, both mother and daughter now lived in South Africa and we were able to reunite them in Cape Town. In our second story, we catch up with former England rugby player Spencer Brown and his sister Margot who were reunited last year. Separated as infants, Spencer and Margot had very different experiences growing up; he had a happy, loving adoption, while she spent time in care. Our third reunion was not originally shown on Long Lost Family because the situation was too sensitive for the cameras. It’s only now, three years after the family first met, that they feel ready to share their extraordinary experience.
