It seems like all Farrah Abraham ever wants to do is convince the world she's all grown up. But have you ever wondered why she's so desperate to leave her childhood behind? We finally got a hint on tonight's Couples Therapy.
As usual, Farrah managed to dominate the drama in a house that's full of some pretty dramatic people. And -- surprise, surprise -- it all came down to that sex tape/porn flick.
During group therapy, Farrah accidentally spilled that there was a cameraman present as she had sex with "a boyfriend" before furiously back-pedaling and claiming it was just her and her man in the room the whole time. What she can't seem to understand is that no one really cares if she did a porno. Everyone in the house would just like to her to own up and be honest about it! They'd respect her -- and like her -- a lot more if they didn't feel like she was lying to them all the time.
Granted, I think we all knew Farrah had trouble interacting with people way before the sex tape or porno or WHATEVER IT REALLY IS that was actually filmed. Remember how rude she was to more or less everyone on Teen Mom? Even the people she supposedly loved? She was often standoff-ish, if not downright rude.
But for the first time, she really has people who are telling it like it is, including celebrity therapist Dr. Jenn Berman, who flat out told Farrah she was "bristly" with people in theCouples Therapy house from the get-go. It's definitely a lot nicer word than some would have used!
But Berman got Farrah to open up about her childhood relationships during a one-on-one session, and I have to say it was pretty moving. For the first time since the show started, it felt like we were seeing the REAL Farrah Abraham.
And grown up or not, porn star or not, the real Farrah Abraham is a scared little kid who doesn't want to make the wrong move and doesn't want to be judged ... because that's all she's ever known. She's judgmental and, yes, kind of bitchy, because that's how her parents were with her!
Tonight we heard from a girl whose parents called her a whore for dating as a teenager! We heard from a girl whose parents would call her a bitch.
Her own parents!
Is it any wonder the poor girl turned out the way she did? Your parents are supposed to be your first line of support and the people who love you unconditionally. The bond you form with them is what teaches you HOW to bond with other people.
Farrah didn't have that. And 22 years later, look at where she is. Trying to figure out how to be a grownup when the grownups who raised her didn't act very ... grown up!
And now Dr. Jenn has warned that Farrah's parents are going to be brought on Couples Therapy to talk about how they affected their daughter. That is going to be one episode NOT to miss.
