Rebecca Ratcliffe: 'I can't explain to my son why people are so cruel to his Aunty Nazanin'

Rebecca Ratcliffe has been demoted from her role as favourite auntie, but she couldn't be happier. The Cwmbran GP is delighted to be able to pass on that honour to her sister-in-law, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe.

The new role was bestowed upon her when the whole family were reunited amid happy scenes two days after Nazanin returned to the UK after being released from six years of captivity in Iran.

"We met up last Saturday with all the family and it was lovely," she says. "It was amazing, the sun was shining and we were out in the garden, just chatting and loving being able to spend time together again. To have that first hug with Nazanin was a really special moment."
