Dame Jenni Murray is an only child whose “pushy and devoted” mother thought she was going to die while giving birth to Jenni, so was determined to never have another baby. That meant Jennifer Susan Bailey grew up with a surfeit of adult attention – which had its advantages, but also definite disadvantages. In this episode Jenni talks about why she wanted a sibling for her own first-born, why being an only child left her lonely in her grief when her mother died, and how she thinks she was spoilt by being the only child in the family.
