Woman who featured in This Morning abandoned baby appeal finally meets birth dad
A woman abandoned in a car park as a baby finally got some answers when the identity of her parents was uncovered by ITV's Long Lost Family: Born Without Trace. The series - which is presented by TV stars Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell – sees people trying to track down lost relatives. Sarah Meyer, 24, became the show's youngest searcher when she appeared in the episode on Wednesday, 2 July. She had been left when she was barely an hour old and at the time her story featured on ITV's This Morning, with former presenter Judy Finnigan issuing an appeal. Her parents never came forward but the Long Lost Family team managed to track them both down. In the episode, Meyer said she was hoping to find answers. "Why was I abandoned?" she asked. "I am hopeful that I will find something." She had been left in a car park in Surrey in 2001 when she was minutes old. She became known as the 'baby in Pink' because she had been wrapped up in a pink towel. A letter was later sent to police saying: "Please look after my little girl. I love her so much, but just can't cope with another baby." Meyer appeared on This Morning alongside police officer Wendy Whiting, with Finnigan telling viewers: "This little sprog here was abandoned in a multi-story car park. She was barely an hour old and weighing just 7lbs." While she was named Caroline at first, she ended up being adopted when she was three months old and was named Sarah. 'I was named Caroline after the nurse who looked after me, and Pembrooke after my car park,' Meyer said. 'It's like a little secret identity of mine. It's a part of my history, which is very important to me. Even with my name now, my middle name is Caroline.' Meyer was reunited with Whiting in the show, and thanked her for what she had done for her. Later she learned that the Long Lost Family team had tracked down her birth mother. It turned out that she had been in her late teens and that Meyer's birth father hadn't known that she existed. Long Lost Family fans urge show bosses to end 'spoilers' Long Lost Family viewers hail 'lovely young man' found by aunt Nicky Campbell says he's 'emotional mess' over Long Lost Family Her mother did not appear in the episode but Meyer was still pleased by the development. "It's good to hear that she's at least alive and is out there,' she said. 'It leaves the door open for her to come and meet me if she wants to. And I'll never close that door… I want her to see that I've lived a good life, and I want her to see that I'm not angry with her.' 'It's at her pace,' she added. However, there was more news when she was told the team had also found her birth father. He had a new partner and another daughter, and was keen to get to know her. He agreed to appear on the programme, although his identity was obscured to help protect her mother's identity. After learning of her dad and seeing a photo of him, Meyer said: "It's just, over the moon is what I am." Her father told host Campbell: "It is hard to process, very hard, that I didn't know about her, that I wasn't there. I should have been. "When I found out that she was abandoned in that car park it was very upsetting to know that my daughter was just left there in that situation. Anything could have happened to her." He and Meyer later had an emotional meeting, with the pair hugging as they saw each other for the first time. "It was a shock," he said of finding out she existed. "I just want to be there for you now." "You can be," Meyer replied.

Two teenagers charged with murder after ‘loving father' stabbed
Two teenage boys have been charged with the murder of a 'loving father' who was stabbed in south Wales, police have said. Married father-of-one Kamran Aman died in Barry Road, Barry, just before midnight on Monday, South Wales Police said. The force had attended the scene following reports that a stabbing had taken place. Two boys aged 16 and 17, both from Llantwit Major, were charged with his murder on Wednesday. The teenagers, who cannot be named for legal reasons, are due to appear at Cardiff Magistrates' Court on Thursday. Mr Aman's family released a tribute on Wednesday evening in which they said: 'It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that we mourn the tragic loss of Kamran. 'A devoted husband, a loving father, a cherished son, brother, uncle and loyal friend, Kamran was the heart of his family and loved within his community. 'Known for his generous spirit and kind heart, Kamran brought warmth and strength to everyone he met. 'His absence leaves an immeasurable void in the lives of all who knew him. 'As we grieve this unimaginable loss, we also honour and celebrate the life he lived and the impact he made. 'May his memory be a blessing.' Detective Superintendent Mark O'Shea, from the Major Crime Investigation Team, said the force was not looking for anyone else in connection with Mr Aman's death. He added: 'Our thoughts are with Kamran's family and friends, as they have been since the tragic events of Monday night. 'We would very much like to thank the community for the support and information that has already been provided. 'We are aware that the road closures and police cordons, which have now been lifted, had a significant impact on the local community.'
