Lily Collins talked about emotionally and verbally abusive relationships from her past.
The 33-year-old Emily’s Paris star has been candid about her going through an abusive relationship and how it affected her. She also shared what drew her to a relationship with a man she said she called a “whore” and made her feel “too small”.
“It had a lot of influence in her choosing me. I became what she wanted me to be. What she wanted me to say or not. Worn or not worn. I did or I didn’t. There was a lot of control there. A lot of emotional violence,” the actress opened.
He called me “Little Lily”. He used horrible words to describe what I was wearing and called me a whore or something.
She explained how this affected her, saying, “I got pretty quiet and comfortable in silence and felt like I had to shrink down to be super safe.” Lily said her body’s reaction to this relationship made her sick. The horrific experience “took him to a therapist” and helped him find a way out to discuss his feelings.
Recall that in the fall of 2020, Lily received a marriage proposal from director Charlie McDowell. A year later, the couple legalized their relationship. “I never wanted to be someone else as much as you and now I’m your wife. We officially became each other’s forever on September 4, 2021. The actress dropped the note “I love you so much” on her social media account. By the way, the couple has been together since 2019.
