‘I definitely feel protective of her,’ he began, reflecting on his own troubled upbringing in the public eye.
His addicted to heavy drugs and battle with mental health has been widely documented.
‘It was hard for me, being that young and being in the industry and not knowing where to turn and everyone telling me they loved me, and just turning their back on you in a second.
‘It’s hard, because I want her to know that she can count on me. But at the end of the day I’m never going to force myself to be in a relationship with her, it has to be natural, right? So I just kind of let her do her thing and if she ever needs me, I’m gonna be here for her, but just protecting those moments because people take for granted encounters.’
