The controversy surrounding Charlize Theron for dressing her son of 'Frozen'

Charlize Theron (44) has revealed for the first time in an interview to the NPR portal what exactly happened the night her mother, Gerda, killed her father, Charles, in self-defense when she was only 15 years old. "My father was a very sick man. He was an alcoholic throughout my life, I only knew him that way ... Being an alcoholic. My family was trapped in that impossible situation. Living with an addict and with the instability that implies is something that marks you for the rest of your life, more than a concrete one-night event, "he explained throughout the conversation to try to paint a realistic picture of what his day-to-day life was like.

"When my father came home with a gun in his hand, he was so drunk that he shouldn't even have been able to stand up. My mother and I were in my room leaning against the door because he was pushing her from the other side to try to get in. We were both blocking her from the inside to stop her and then stepped back and shot us three times through the door. It's a miracle that none of the bullets hit us. My mother ended up with that threat in defense own. "

The main reason he has decided to share the details of that tragic event has been to show that he is not ashamed of the violence that marked his childhood and remind others that they have gone through similar situations that are not alone.

"I am not ashamed to share what happened because I think the more we talk about it, the easier it will be for us to realize that we are not the only ones who have been through something like that. In my case, the story revolves around what it means living with addicts and how it affects you, "he concluded.
