Hollywood actress Jane Fonda, who removed a cancerous tumor on her face, told a terrible story about her mother's suicide.

In the new documentary HBO "Jane Fonda in Five Acts" the star admitted that the death of her mother, Francis Ford Seymour in 1950, was one of the defining events in the life of the artist.

When this happened, Jane was 12.

"If your parent is not capable of showing his love, it has a big impact on your self-perception. As a child, you think that it's your fault, because a child can not blame an adult, because it depends on him in every sense. It takes a very long time to overcome feelings of guilt, "said the Foundation..

About what happened to my mother in fact, the star learned much later, after reading an article in the journal. Prior to this, the actress's father told her that her mother had died from a heart attack.

In fact, a 42-year-old woman who suffered from bipolar disorder cut her throat in a psychiatric hospital.

The Foundation gained access to medical records and began to carefully study the history of my mother.

"When I wrote my memoirs, I dedicated them to my mother, because I really wanted to understand her. I never knew her, because she suffered from bipolar disorder. But when you do research and start to learn everything, you begin to sympathize with these people and you can forgive them, "- shared the actress.

Recall that in March 2017, Jane Fonda shook the news of her rape in childhood.
