Maisie Williams revealed she had a “traumatic” childhood, which was fueled by her father’s behavior.
“As a young child before the age of 8, I had a traumatic relationship with my dad,” the “Game of Thrones” actress said on Monday’s episode of “The Diary of a CEO” podcast.
“[That relationship] really consumed a lot of my childhood. Ever since I can remember I really struggled with sleeping, and I think a lot of the traumatic things that were happening, I didn’t realize that they were wrong,” she further described to host Steven Bartlett.
The former child actress, who is now 25, said she felt alienated from her peers while growing up because of her experiences.
“I would look around at other kids and wonder, ‘why don’t they seem to understand this pain or dread or fear? Where does this joy — when does that come for me? #maisiewilliams #traumaticr #fatherbehavior
