In this week's episode of Minutes With, we sat down with Katy Morgan-Davies, born into a London cult. Known as the 'Communist Collective' and led by her father Aravindan Balakrishnan (AB), it operated as a cult of personality. Katy discusses being locked in the house for 30 years, the power dynamics of the group and the abuse she suffered at the hands of cult members.

Thank you to Katy for taking part. You can buy her memoir, 'Caged Bird' on amazon - www.amazon.co.uk/Caged-Bird-Katy-Morgan-Davies/dp/….

    She still remained so kind, what an amazing woman.
  • @lejlakhaleesi
    This woman is astonishingly bright, brave, and remarkably intelligent.
  • @kymayton4532
    This is an amazing case for nature vs nurture. Spent nearly 30 years being taught that cruelty is the norm and still had so much kindness in her heart. I wish her nothing but the best in her future what an inspiration 💓
  • You can still hear the tremor in her voice reliving this CPTSD. What I truly wish for her, if she hasn't already, is to be given THE BEST trauma therapy, psychiatrist and psychologist to helo her bury this horror story. No fee. Private medic. And absent of a waiting time. She deserves this. For the sake of leading a whole life. 💜

    "You can't be free if you're hating other people." Wise words. I wish the best for her. She deserves all that's good in life.

    I had a chance to interview Katy for my channel and I am glad I contacted her. She is one of the nicest person I have ever met, in addition she is so brilliant.
  • @cestsibon2468
    She’s come SUCH a long way. I’m just so proud of her. I remember hearing her after she was freed (not sure on how soon after) and her language skills were very much affected. She’s composed. Clearly done exception self growth and a lot of work on language and everything else. Just so happy to see this. I really hope she now gets to move on and up and live the life she deserves.
  • @nicksminicabs
    I wish this woman nothing but the best for the remainder of her life. What monsters they must have been.
  • My God, this poor woman. Her capacity for forgiveness and compassion despite being raised around so much hate and violence is so inspiring! I hope wherever she goes in life, she's happy and finally feels the freedom she always deserved.
  • @yyg4632
    her intrinsic forgiveness shows how kind she is
  • @sphelele4918
    Brilliant, resilient, beautiful. The fact that she knew it was all crazy talk even though isolated from the outside world. Wishing her a soft landing, safety, softness and warmth she missed in childhood
  • @bkm2797
    So sad she had to experience this sick cult, but so glad she knew in her soul things weren't right, that is what saved her. I sincerely hope she gets the support she deserves, no one should ever have to be subjected to a cult. Wishing her healing and love ❤️.
  • coming from such evil parents she as a complete heart of gold this lady i wish her all the happiness in the world i really do
  • @ramdesvaux
    Wow! She's amazing! More power to her!
  • @kristiriley
    Katy is so well spoken & intelligent. It is really impressive, especially hearing about the life she was forced to live. I can't imagine her recieving that great of an education while being in the cult. I'm absolutely impressed & so glad she was able to get out. She seems like such an amazing person!
  • @MarcelaHola
    So much respect for this lady, having gone through what she did, she does not hate, does not wish harm on others, I wish her only happiness and contentment for her future
  • @patriciaatupe869
    I became familiar with her story through the 2017 BBC documentary ‘Cult Next Door’ an absolutely heartbreaking story. Wishing her all the best.
  • Word’s can not express how remarkable this woman is. I wish her nothing but love and happiness
  • @joidk3961
    I remember watching a documentary on television about this cult. She is so extraordinarily soft spoken and also strong considering that she’s here to tell us her story
