BB\'s Pete was molested at 14
 
Quote:
It has emerged that Big Brother favourite Pete Bennett was molested as a child.


Amidst a troubled year when the Tourette's sufferer spent a year being taken in and out of hospital while being prone to fits, 14-year-old Pete told his mother Anne that he had been abused.


Speaking to Heat magazine, she said: "He isn't a hateful person, but he hates the person who did that to him. I knew the minute I saw him that something bad had happened, because he was white as a sheet and having a fit. He told me that he had been touched inappropriately. I didn't go to the police because Pete was too ill to testify. I dealt with it in my own way and I made sure the person responsible never came near Pete again."


Pete's mother also spoke about her son's referral to a special school for kids with problems and how his best friend Julian was killed on a railway despite Pete trying to save his life.


"It totally devastated him," she said. "He was so low and vulnerable and, like vultures cashing in, he was offered drugs. Thankfully he had a dream that told him to stop."


But charismatic Pete appears to have his troubles behind him as he remains completely smitten by brattish Nikki on the Channel 4 show and is favourite to win the competition with odds of 1/5.

You know what I find hard to swallow? It's not the gory details of his personal life hitting the tabloids.. it's the fact that his own mum speaks openly to all and sundry about some very personal stuff indeed. Does she have no discretion?

You know telling the world about this stuff can be good therapy.

It's nothing to be ashamed of. The person that did it is the one who should be ashamed. And punished!!!

I respect her for talking about it.

Au contrare. I would respect him for talking about it. I agree it's nothing to be ashamed of, but it's his decision whether he wants to speak about it or not. I don't think it's her place to discuss this kind of thing.. Unless they agreed before he went in the house of course.

I just feel that it's a private matter and it's down to Pete whether he wishes to discuss it or not.

Girardsky 17-08-2006 06:41 PM

I would assume his own mother knows for sure whether it's something he would want kept private or not.

no one would make a sik lie like that just to win BB

Bubs 17-08-2006 06:45 PM
I doubt very much a loving mother would make up this kind of thing!!

ferg_luvs_bb7 17-08-2006 06:45 PM
Oh well, i still dont want him to win

lily. 17-08-2006 06:46 PM
I don't think for one minute that she made it up... I just have an issue with some of the stuff the family says to the media. I know you basically give up your privacy when you enter BB, but some things could just be handled with a bit more tact in my opinion.

Had his mum been an hm and her mum exposed private
deatails about her,would she have like it

lily. 17-08-2006 07:08 PM
That is my point exactly. I'm not sure how Pete will feel when he emerges from the house to discover that some very private details have been disclosed to the media by his own mother!!!

Ella 17-08-2006 07:14 PM
OMG Petey :sad:

Thats terrible :sad:

Ollie! 17-08-2006 07:19 PM
The timing of this information is very suspicious. Poor lad though.

DizzyLizzy 17-08-2006 07:22 PM
I think this kind of subject should be treated delicately, If it is true we shouldnt disrespect pete by incinuating that it is just information given for his own gain

Your sick...His mum has finished her chemo, so hopefully better now. If his mum didn't stand a chance, I think he would of been by her side, instead of going on BB.

It's a sad thing. But, it's just another sympathy vote to add to the massive mound of sympathy that's already swarming around this man.

Poor Petey!:sad:
