In the biography of 41 – year-old American actress Charlize Theron, there is a terrible episode, which the star has never talked about publicly or commented upon. And after 26 years of silence, Charlize finally decided to comment on the terrible event. He writes about it Usmagazine.
Teron's childhood was spent on her parents' farm in Benoni, near Johannesburg. When the star was just 15 years old, there was a scandal in the house.
15 July 1990, Charlize Charles’s father came home intoxicated. He threatened to shoot his wife and daughter. The actress’s mother, Gerde Theron, had no choice but to defend herself. Therefore, she first shot at her husband. Charlize witnessed all this wild history.
The woman’s actions were justified, and the police did not press any charges against her.
For many years the actress hid the truth about the death of her father and claimed that he died in a car accident.
“I just pretended that nothing happened. I didn't tell anyone, I didn't want to tell anyone. Every time someone asked me, I said that my father died in a car accident. Who would like to tell this story? Nobody would want to, ”says Charlize.
She did not want people to learn about the real reason for the death of his father, began to feel sorry for her.
“I didn't want to feel like a victim. I struggled with this for many years until I got therapy. ”
Only after Charlize became an adult, she was able to turn to a psychotherapist. With the help of a specialist, she was able to accept the consequences of that night. But, alas, the star could not come to terms with the fact that her father was an alcoholic.
“I think what influenced my adult life the most was that I had the daily life of a child living in a house with an alcoholic and waking up every day, not knowing what to expect. I didn't know what my day would be, because it depended on the other person and whether he got drunk or not, ”explains Theron.
The actress is very grateful to her mother for the support that she has given her all her life.
“I have an incredible mother. She is the biggest inspiration in my life. Her philosophy was this: “This is terrible. I confirm that this is terrible. But now make a choice: are you going to drown, or stay afloat? ”.
