Beaten by my ex for 7 years, those around me feigned indifference

Heather Parisi he said he was beaten for 7 years from a former partner whose name he preferred not to make. Barbara d’Urso's guest at “Live – Non e la D’Urso”, the dancer wanted to open a breach on the most painful part of her past. A man who was his companion for years would have used physical and psychological violence:

I decided to tell what happened to me to give strength to women who suffer violence at home. I lived it but I managed to save myself. I am not proud of this subject and I do not want to pass as a character who intends to exploit this story. I will not give dates or places and I will never talk about him. In that condition you feel alone, you are ashamed, the anger is very strong. I know that women at home can understand and I want to give them courage: get up and leave home. This should not be a taboo subject.

Who knew and remained silent: the story of Heather Parisi

Heather goes on to say that someone at the time knew how much happened to her. Those same people would have left her alone, forcing her to solve that terrible problem without any support. A terrible story that the dancer and showgirl tells only today, years after those dark moments:

I tried to talk about it shyly years ago. Someone knew it but in front of thirds they turned their faces from the other side, it's more comfortable. I became small and complex. I felt like a boxer with his hands tied. I was beaten for 7 years, kicked, slapped and punched. Physical violence of any kind heals, it is what remains inside that is dangerous. I was threatened. He told me I was a foreigner, that they wouldn't believe me. He called me American chicken.

When Heather Parisi rebelled

After years of violence and abuse, Heather has decided to rebel. He chose to say enough about that life, to archive that sick relationship at any cost, even if this meant staying out of work and without money: "I lived in hell and now I feel strong. From day to day I took the bag and left home. I didn't care about money and television. He told me that I would no longer work but that was fine with me. I was psychologically and physically raped. It is a shame that all this happens again".
