Motherhood can feel full of judgement - sometimes over the smallest decisions, sometimes over the ones that change everything. But what happens when the stakes couldn't be higher?

In Judged: A Mother's Love, Katie Bridget Murphy explores three extraordinary stories of mothers facing impossible choices - choices that shaped birth, everyday life, and even death. These decisions didn't just transform their families; they variously uncovered hidden truths, challenged laws, and helped changed society itself. Through powerful testimony and expert insight, this series asks: what happens when motherhood is pushed to its limits?

    Katie Bridget Murphy meets actor Patrick FitzSymons, whose life takes a dramatic turn when he discovers he was adopted and that his birth was illegally registered. From fake pregnancies to falsified documents, Patrick’s story reveals the lengths some went to in a society steeped in shame. Then, Patrick realises his case is not unique. It could be just the tip of the iceberg.

    Patrick FitzSymons seeks justice for an illegal adoption that rewrote his identity. His story helps uncover decades of secrecy, cross-border adoptions, and a state that turned a blind eye. As Ireland’s Taoiseach issues a historic apology on this issue, Patrick takes legal action - one of the first to do so. But after years of struggle, what does justice look like for Patrick, and for his birth & adoptive mothers whose choices, he believes, were shaped by shame?
