“As a DV survivor I felt compelled to write a little bit about my story. I was in a very abusive relationship for close to 2 years,” Breslin, 26, wrote in a statementThe “Little Miss Sunshine” star, who was sharing her experience to honor Domestic Violence Awareness Month, explained that the relationship started out “perfectly” and she was “so in love” but that her abuser took advantage of her “innocence and naïveté” before things turned violent.
“I was beaten on a regular basis, locked into rooms and forced to pretend everything was ok and normal while dealing with intense injuries…injuries most people didn’t even see,” Breslin, who didn’t name her abuser, wrote. Breslin said she would use concealer and foundation to hide her bruises because she wanted to protect her abuser, saying, “in some way, I still cared for this person.”abbienormal9/Instagramabbienormal9/Instagramabbienormal9/Instagramabbienormal9/Instagramabbienormal9/Instagramabbienormal9/Instagram
