Paige is currently in the middle of a media blitz to promote her new biopic, Fighting With My Family. In a new interview with the New York Post, Paige opens up about the privacy invasion back in 2017 and is very candid about the depression this caused her:
“To be publicly humiliated like that was terrible, and I don’t wish that for anyone. I didn’t go to work; I didn’t do anything. I felt so rock bottom”
Paige also shares a touching story of the little girl who approached her that ultimately helped her rise above the depression:
“Of course, she didn’t have the internet and thought I was the most beautiful and most successful woman in the world. It opened my eyes to so many things. I was like, ‘I’m gonna let videos get in the way of things?’ I thought, what am I doing? I need to be successful for her. My whole journey was supposed to be about inspiring people.”
Fighting With My Family will release next Friday, February 22, in theaters.
