80s pop icon Sinitta has revealed she was sexually abused at the age of four, and now fifty years later, feels the past is finally ‘catching up with me’ as she opens up about suffering painful flashbacks.
In a brave and honest admission to The Mail on Sunday, the American-born singer said she had been abused by a family friend she called ‘aunty’ while staying at her grandad’s dilapidated and cockroach infested house in Detroit, while her mother was away working.
Sinitta, who has been left feeling ‘fragile’ and ‘in a dark place’ said: “She would get into bed with me, strip naked and make me massage her body.
“It was claustrophobic in the dark under the covers, but I was afraid to stop until she would just collapse on top of me.”
