“Mom had really, she really wasn’t a healthy boyfriend,” she explained. “She saw him like James Dean. The reality was that he was not James Dean. He is the guy who is creepy.

“I was old enough to know that something was wrong. I remember being a very, very aware of this man who watched us in the tub and, you know, lying on me while watching television.”

Wynonna said their mother was not at home often, and she became “amazing, incredibly protective of Ashley.”

She also remembered that she herself dealt with the shrimp in the motel room when she was a young girl.

“Mom worked and then went out at night, so I was in this strange place with the prawns. I just slept all the time,” Ashley said.

“It was a childhood depression,” Ashley said, referring to the disease she would continue to fight, most of the time unnoticed.

“I would just watch commercials and take out the cleaning products that were advertised and just copied what I saw on television,” Ashley remembered to take care of herself in the motel.

She said that when her mom later found out from Ashley’s Diary about the attack, Naomi “attacked” the idea, referring to the man who raped her as her “boyfriend”.

“But I was a girl. I wasn’t a participant. I was a victim. No consent, and my mom and I had a lot of these conversations later in my life,” Ashley said. “And her understanding of a sexual attack and rape was not a perspective she grew up and evolved. She just had no information and a perspective.

“So her reaction was to attach to me. I closed myself in closed. My own experience and reality canceled and denied, which would be a very painful misery in her heart today.”

“One of the reasons why I decided that Mom left this world because of trauma, generational trauma, family things that never cured or fixed.”

“I was bullied at 12, so my whole matter of sexuality was really impressed because, at only 12, I really turned off,” Wynonna revealed. “So, I carried weight, literally and figuratively.”

Her weight, which she said she had put it because the food became a “saint” for her like a drug or alcohol, became a problem after she and her mom managed as a duo from the country.

Wynonna noted that this was the same thing her grandmother told her mom who grew up.

“That’s why I would get so angry because I knew it was transmitted,” she added.

She said to her mother’s sexuality on stage when she was “so worsened” together.

“She was 36. She was ready to be fire,” Wynonna laughed. “As the kids would say today, she dripped. She was a fox and she was ready to score. Man, she lowered her modus, but at that time I was so worsened by her sexuality.”

She added that she wanted her mom’s relationship could be harmonious like their music, but “there was a lot of dysfunction.”
