About this listen
Thousands of children are believed to be born to Catholic priests, yet their stories have been buried under decades of secrecy and shame. On this episode of the Your Radical Truth Podcast, I sat down with Linda Kelly Lawless, an Australian genealogist who discovered through DNA testing that her biological father was a Catholic priest. What followed was a six-year uphill battle to have the Church simply acknowledge the truth.
Her story is one of courage, perseverance, and the deep trauma caused by institutional denial. Linda is now the first person in Australia to have her birth certificate legally corrected in such a case. This episode isn’t just about her, it’s about a silenced population finally being heard.
