Report in the Guardian that she has had her passport returned and that a negotiating team are in place.

Too early for celebrations but I have got my fingers crossed behind my back.

Hope so hope so hope so.

But I do recall that the Iranian authorities are good at raising hopes them snatching them away. My hopes are tentative.

LetsGoDoDoDo · 15/03/2022 11:42

Everything crossed for her!

vinoandbrie · 15/03/2022 11:48

I dare not believe this is the beginning of the end, but I do hope it is! #FreeNazanin

For Gabriella and Richard to have her back. For her to be back with her daughter. I really hope the next update we hear is that she’s on a plane! Almost don’t want to jinx it by writing it down.

TheRealBoswell · 15/03/2022 11:53

I hope it’s not false hopes Sad She will need a lot of help and counseling to adjust so I hope she gets all the help she needs when she comes back.

RandomMess · 15/03/2022 11:58

I hope so

mibbelucieachwell · 15/03/2022 12:01

Oh wow that's hopeful. Connected with the current negotiations with Iran perhaps?

Pieceofpurplesky · 15/03/2022 14:56

I really hope so.

Let's just hope Boris doesn't intervene again!

If you ever need a reminder as to how bad Mr Johnson is, here it is.

Let us hope for a resolution soon.

Kfjsjdbd · 15/03/2022 15:01

I keep googling to see if there’s an update, and just so so hope it all goes well for her. What an awful situation

Pedallleur · 15/03/2022 15:27

Most expensive passport ever? £400 million we have paid back

Justcallmebebes · 15/03/2022 15:29

I have everything crossed for her and pray that she is home soon

Alonelonelylonersbadidea · 15/03/2022 15:29

I’ll be holding my breath until she lands on UK soil…

Pedallleur · 15/03/2022 15:29

Boris is busy today negotiating with the Crown Prince of Saudi re oil. Same crown Prince who ordered the journalist to be killed/dismembered in Istanbul

TooBigForMyBoots · 15/03/2022 15:33

I hope so.🙏 She has suffered so much.

StormyWindow · 15/03/2022 15:35

I so hope so, what that family have been through is unbearable to even think about.

thebellsesmereldathebells · 15/03/2022 15:36

Also waiting with bated breath. Please, please let her come home.

Indeed, and executed 81 men last week.

Double standards, as ever.

loislovesstewie · 15/03/2022 15:47

I hope Boris keeps his mouth shut this time.

RonniePickering · 15/03/2022 15:50

Praying 🙏

Leftleg · 15/03/2022 15:51

I really really hope so! Fingers crossed.

JuneOsborne · 15/03/2022 16:07

Watching with interest.

TheWeeDonkey · 15/03/2022 16:16

I really hope so, she and her poor family have been through so much.

Phos · 15/03/2022 16:22

Apparently she's had her passport returned but Iran are demanding £400m for her release.

Tippexy · 15/03/2022 16:23

I’ll believe it when I see it, unfortunately.

NarcissistsEyebrows · 15/03/2022 16:59

@Phos

Apparently she's had her passport returned but Iran are demanding £400m for her release.
My understanding is that we've owed them the £400million for years and keep refusing to pay it back.

No doubt it is more complex than that, but they're not just demanding £400million for no reason are they?
