Patrick Stewart Opens Up About 'Horrifying' Experience of Being Raised in a Violent Home: 'I Felt Shame'

Patrick Stewart opens up about being raised in a violent home in a new ITV documentary.

In an interview for the new ITV documentary Her Majesty The Queen: Behind Closed Doors, the actor said, “Domestic violence was something that people never spoke about. Stewart went on to say that he and his brother Trevor "used to sit on the steps leading down from the bedrooms, right behind the door that opened up into the one living room." "So with that, we would push open the door and burst into the room, and my brother Trevor, who was taller than me, would force himself between my father and my mother so that he couldn’t reach her," he continued, according to The Times.
