‘7th Heaven’ stars Beverley Mitchell, David Gallagher and Mackenzie Rosman addressed Stephen Collins’ sexual abuse of minors on their rewatch podcast
Ahead of dissecting the pilot of the hit WB/CW drama, Beverley Mitchell, David Gallagher and Mackenzie Rosman prefaced a new episode of their podcast, Catching Up with the Camdens, with a note about Collins, who, in 2014, admitted to sexually abusing three minors.
“All forms of abuse, sexual abuse of any kind, it’s inexcusable. And victims of abuse need to be shown compassion and they should be given support,” added Gallagher, who played Simon Camden. Collins played family patriarch Reverend Eric Camden on 7th Heaven, which ran for 11 seasons from 1996 to 2007. The drama follows the lives of Collins’ character, his wife Annie, and their children. The ensemble cast also included Jessica Biel, Barry Watson and Catherine Hicks.
In December 2014, Collins admitted to sexually abusing three underage girls after TMZ published an audio recording of him revealing his transgressions in a marriage counseling session with his ex-wife, Faye Grant. He said the three incidents took place between 1973 and 1994.
