"People ask me, do I blame Hollywood or my parents?" she tells InStyle U.K. of her past troubles in its October issue. "No, I don't blame my parents. It had nothing to do with them. I created it and manifested it, and I got myself through it with the help of a lot of great people.
"One thing about me is that I've always taken responsibility for my own actions, whether they're good or bad," she says. "Even when I was going through my tough time, that was a situation that I created."
LOVE her! People so often seem to confuse explanations (like, I developed this habit because when I was a kid this was what happened) with excuses (it's not my fault I do this because this happened when I was a child).
It's great to see Nicole hasn't made that mistake. She's going to be a great role model for her kids.
