Queen Latifah Childhood Sexual Abuse – Queen Latifah who is featured in the July issue of Essence told the mag that she was sexually molested by a teenage babysitter and that horrific moment left her unable to form meaningful relationships as an adult.Latifah said:
“He violated me,I never told anybody. I just buried it as deeply as I could and kept people at an arms length. I never really let a person get too close to me.I could have been married years ago, but I had a commitment issue.”
Latifah says she didn’t tell anyone until the death of her brother when she was 22 years old.
“I had to get it off my chest. My mother felt terrible. She was kind of a country girl, so she wasn’t up on how slick people could be. When I told my dad, he said nothing.”
The star revealed:
“I was a kid, and I had no power or control over the situation. I really wish I’d had the strength and the knowledge to say something sooner, because I always wondered, Did he do that to someone else? But I accept that the time for action has come and gone.”
That’s all we have for now on Queen Latifah Childhood Sexual Abuse.
