Pattie Mellette is a scriptwriter and producer – but today, she’s most known as the mother of pop sensation Justin Beiber.
However, few people know much about her and the challenges she has faced over the course of her life…
Justin Bieber is one of the biggest stars in the world, and in the eyes of many, the Canadian star has everything you can wish for.
But even famous people have issues and suffer crises – often without the public’s full awareness. Justin Bieber’s relationship with his mother, Pattie Malette, has been rocky – and considering her tough background, it’s not too shocking that things got complicated.
”I was sexually violated so many times that as the years went by it began to feel normal. It’s a strange marriage – knowing something is wrong yet at the same time finding it familiar and commonplace,” she said.
As a child, Mallette developed a passion for acting and singing. By the age of nine, she was making appearances on local TV shows, such as Romper Room and Big Top Talent, a children’s talent program broadcast in her area.
