“The things that he did are unforgivable…”
Chloe Grace Moretz loves to brag about her amazing family, mother Teri Moretz and brothers Trevor, Ethan, Brandon, and Colin.
But one person you won’t ever hear her brag about is her father, who
abandoned her and her family when the actress was just 12 years old. In
the latest issue of Glamour,
Moretz opens up about his betrayal affected her and her family after he
left her mother to raise five children as a single mother.
“I was 12. It was a pretty bad experience,”
Moretz, now 19, admitted. “It could have rocked our family and messed us
up, but it actually made us a lot tighter. My brothers bumped up into
the roles of fathers and kept me in a bubble where I could live in a
world that wasn’t jaded and ruined.”
Moretz revealed that even all these years
later, she’s still not ready to forgive her father. “I don’t think I
will truly find a way to forgive,” she said. “The things that he did are
unforgivable … My forgiveness is that I’m living my life.”
Because of what she went through at such a
young age, the actress admitted to having trouble trusting people,
especially in the business, “In my business in general, it’s hard to
trust people. And it definitely affected me at a young age in terms of
accepting people into my life on a personal level.” Luckily Moretz has
found a way to make sure it doesn’t affect her personal life, including
her relationship with Brooklyn Beckham,
too much. “But I’ve overcome that in the past few years — dealing with
relationships, dealing with guys. You don’t realize why you’re acting a
certain way, and then you start to piece it together, and you realize
you’ve got a slight case of PTSD.”
