'From a very young age, my mother told me not to tell anyone that I have this famous dad.'
Tessa added that despite their relationship, Jack was not a"deadbeat" father. She explained how she grew up on the Upper East Side with her mother, Jennine Gourin, and her younger half-brother. And while her life wasn't lavish, she attended"prestigious private schools, through [Jack's] financial help."interview, she described her complicated childhood and limited interactions with her father.
When asked if she ever figured out why her father chose to be distant, she responded, “I don’t think anyone’s ever given me a concrete answer.”"I formed my own opinion. He’s a complicated person, and I think my mom fights her own demons, and with the combination of the two, I was simply collateral damage.”
“I was dealt a really shitty random card, but I’m not gonna let that destroy me,” she added. “In fact, I’m gonna use it to fuel me. I feel like every really good artist, what’s at their core, what their ultimate hardships and conflicts are within their lives—that’s what drives them, and that just happens to be mine.”
