Pattie Mellette is a scriptwriter and producer \u2013 but today, she\u2019s most known as the mother of pop sensation Justin Beiber.<\/p>\n
However, few people know much about her and the challenges she has faced over the course of her life\u2026<\/p>\n
Justin Bieber is one of the biggest stars in the world, and in the eyes of many, the Canadian star has everything you can wish for.<\/p>\n
But even famous people have issues and suffer crises \u2013 often without the public\u2019s full awareness. Justin Bieber\u2019s relationship with his mother, Pattie Malette, has been rocky \u2013 and considering her tough background, it\u2019s not too shocking that things got complicated.<\/p>\n
Pattie Mallette was born on April 2, 1975, in Stratford, Ontario, and comes from a French-Canadian background. Tragically, her early childhood was marked by an unimaginable loss. When Pattie was just 2 years old, her 5-year-old sister, Sally, was struck by a car while crossing the street and sadly lost her life. This devastating event would forever leave its mark on Pattie\u2019s family and her early years.<\/p>\n
Pattie gave birth to Justin at the young age of 17. She was single at the time and was not unfamiliar with dealing with obstacles. According to Daily Mail, Pattie raised Justin all by herself in a low-income housing space in Canada. She had some help from her parents, Justin\u2019s grandparents.<\/p>\n
According to Pattie, she dealt with years and various instances of abuse and violence, starting at the age of 3. She explained:<\/p>\n
\u201cMy offenders include a male babysitter, the grandfather of one of my friends, and neighborhood children reportedly mature beyond their years,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n
As she grew to the age of 14, she began to use different substances. Around this time, she was also beginning to shoplift at stores and was expelled from her school for starting a fire in the bathroom. Sadly, the book sexual abuse continued. In her book, Patti describes date rape at age 15.<\/p>\n
\u201dI was sexually violated so many times that as the years went by it began to feel normal. It\u2019s a strange marriage \u2013 knowing something is wrong yet at the same time finding it familiar and commonplace,\u201d she said.READ MORE BELOW…<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pattie Mellette is a scriptwriter and producer \u2013 but today, she\u2019s most known as the mother of pop sensation Justin Beiber.
