[@vannesagannon4555]

The interviewers are pathetic

[@maryheeney3090]

You are so brave hope he's locked up in jail

[@SamSmithVev0]

Absolutely horrific story. She is a strong person.i hope he rots in jail.

[@vannesagannon4555]

He wont even get jail

[@AbigailBrown-wk7xl]

What a brave lady . This lady would of helped alot of women by speaking out ❤

[@michellemcgarr1709]

It’s so difficult to understand why people stay until they are ever in the situation themselves. It doesn’t happen overnight but a gradual process of taking your self esteem and self worth away slowly. Get out now 😢 would be my biggest bit of advice to anyone suffering from this type of behaviour because it only gets worse.

Trish, you are an amazing young lady. ❤️

THIS IS SO SAD😢

[@habanero6332]

I went through this too. I have written a book. I know how she feels.

[@melliecrann-gaoth4789]

Keep talking. Keep bringing more people on the programme. Don Hennessy would be an excellent person to have on.

[@noeleen-58]

[@kimwatson3331]

Thank you, Trisha Rooney, for your bravery.

[@karatekai6384]

So sorry to hear you had to go through that ordeal, delighted you had the strength and courage to take back control of your life and your own future, wishing you love and happiness the rest of your life 🙏⭐️🙏

[@jackieburdon4905]

pig needs to be locked up. I was in a domestic abuse relationship in Ireland in the early 90s and could not get a barring order because we weren't married. That was how things were then in Holy Catholic Ireland. My son witnessed him almost killing me and he was only 7. We were split up and he came back to the house to see his son. Best thing getting out of that situation. these men isolate you and have a tendency for jealousy and alcohol abuse. Unfortunately, he was a street angel house devil and family did not believe me.

[@melliecrann-gaoth4789]

Very important to talk about. Great woman. Steps to Freedom- 4 part Irish Podcast. Listen.

[@DarrenFoley-m8j]

Such a horrible ordeal for that young lady but on the plus side look at the strong beautiful swan she has become ❤

[@danielapearls1491]

Sad you stayed after the first time he abused you. You were going to leave at 15 but you stayed after he abused you for wanting to leave. Sad. Your instinct knew to go at 15!!!! You have your precious children. You are strong & couragous❤️🫶🏻🙏🏻✝️

[@michellecaseygalloway780]

I remember the black eyes of my stepfather

[@shirleycarroll1698]

OOOOHHH was he beaten by your grandmother?

[@shirleycarroll1698]

Or he was crazy?

[@user-cy4vw1qj9m]

I wish her a happy life from here in.

[@JohnCambridge-c6t]

Stay strong

[@Barbara-yj5tl]

The interviewer said to her ‘it doesn’t sound real’ i imagine like me she was referring more to the fact she stayed with that monster for years. Why? She was 15/16 when he first kicked off yet she let it go on for years. Unbelievable!

[@sondrareams8014]

Don't stay, run

[@gloriasaliba3395]

The best indicator of future behaviour is past behaviour she should have walked away from him after the first attack at 15 years of age why bring innocent children into this horrendous situation

[@LizBartley-w4v]

This hasn't changed .lots out there and nothing happens.😢😢😢

[@janepearson5802]

SHe was physically abused and stayed . How awful

[@Magical_Makeup_UK]

Women’s aid have been amazing to me ❤

[@ANNASTESIA-s4o]

They always continue , the abuse. Didn't be loyal to violence

[@joanmorrissey4257]

How do you get away from these men when you share kids with them though?

[@KLR-l9l]

He sounds like a very troubled man. She is equally troubled. It takes two to bring kids into this scenario knowingly.
