PHOTOSShocking Confession! Jenny McCarthy Reveals Abusive Relationship With Ex
There's no denying that Jenny McCarthy is a strong-willed woman, but that doesn't mean she can't succumb to the pressures of an abusive relationship. In a shocking new confession, McCarthy reveals that she had a boyfriend who verbally abused her for four years straight. “What I thought was gonna be a typical relationship turned into a relationship that you would never think you would get yourself into. Especially me,” McCarthy told E! News. “I mean, I really consider myself to be pretty strong-willed and confident, even back then. But I did find myself being slowly manipulated into a very, very dark, abusive — verbally abusive — relationship that could have easily killed me.”
She continued, “I no longer had my own thoughts. They were replaced with his thoughts about me. That I was worthless, disgusting, talentless, ugly, fat, smelled so badly. I was no longer worthy of being kissed.”
And it was only after “four years of excruciating, verbal abuse” that McCarthy finally woke up and realized she needed to get out.

“I found my accountability in the hell I was living in. The path to loving yourself requires you to stop putting the blame on others and observe the choices you make that got you there,” she said. “It wasn’t his job to love me. It was mine. So I chose to finally get the hell out of that relationship. I chose to be powerful, not powerless.”
McCarthy did not reveal the identity of the man.
