Description

Tressa Middleton's story is one of unimaginable hardship and resilience. At just 12 years old, she became Britain's youngest mother in 2006, a fact that shocked the nation but barely scratched the surface of her true struggles. Born into poverty and neglect, Tressa was forced to grow up too quickly when she was taken into care at four. She was returned to her chaotic home environment, only to face abuse from her own brother by the age of seven. Despite this, she kept his secret in a desperate bid to hold her family together. Now, for the first time, Tressa tells her story - a poignant and powerful account of hope, forgiveness, and love that has taken her years to share.
