Back in 1975, before Fr Stephen Imbarrato became a Catholic priest and pro-life activist, he got his girlfriend pregnant and was, in his own words, “complicit” in her abortion. Decades later when he met her to apologise, he found out she had been carrying twins.
“I had said I supported her decision either way, though I gave all the reasons why it wasn’t a good time to have a baby,” says
Fr Imbarrato added that he believes his girlfriend would have continued the pregnancy if he had said that was what he wanted.
