, on ABC, to talk about their lives and current projects. Actress Ashley Judd appeared on April 6, 2011 to talk about her new book, "All Things Bitter and Sweet." On April 7, mother/daughter Country Music duo, Naomi and Wynonna Judd appeared to talk about their new series on OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.
Ashley Judd (Double Jeopardy) has enjoyed a successful acting career, a commercial venture with her beauty line and a marriage to race car driver Dario Franchitti. It seems like Ashley Judd has everything a woman could possibly want, but she has been hiding an ugly secret, a childhood that included sexual abuse. Ashley Judd also revealed that she felt terribly left out, when her mother, Naomi, and older sister, Wynonna, skyrocketed to success as a Country Music Duo. "All Things Bitter and Sweet" is Ashley Judd's story of the trials and tears behind her success story.
Naomi was a single mother and supporting her two daughters when the Country Music duo shot to fame. While The Judds were a successful singing team. When they were offstage, there was acrimony between the women, who were probably spending too much time with each other. Naomi and Wynonna talked about being in therapy and revealing that they had also been sexually abused as children.
The Judd women said they never discussed the abuse with each other, or anyone else. Now the veil is being lifted. Behind the story of success and fame, the women have been keeping secrets. The subject will be explored on the two hour premiere of The Judds, on OWN, on Sunday, April 10, 2011.
