In a new interview with America’s Parade Magazine, Janet has spoken out against her father and blamed herself for her failed marriages saying she was too loyal and giving.
On her father:
“It’s a very cold world, and to have gone through what she has had to experience, from having polio as a child to those things with my brother Michael, and then for my father to have had another child.
“I’ve been cheated on a lot. I know what that feels like and how that hurts the heart. But, I mean, to give us a half-sister, I can’t even fathom what that’s like for mother.
“For her to stay with my father all these years and never abandon her kids, that’s true love.”
On marriage:
“After two divorces, I thought I was jinxed: ‘Maybe marriage isn’t for me? Maybe it’s my fault it never works.’ “I was always faithful. I always tried to give of myself. I was very loyal.
But maybe I’m the problem. I’m to blame.” And she insists her reluctance to wed again is an effort to avoid another crushing heartbreak.
She adds, “It was awful, and I was so tired of being hurt.
