Her Autobiography
If you thought Chrissy has touched millions already, just wait until people read her new memoir, This Is Me: Loving the Person You Are Today. In her memoir, she gets deeply personal about some of her most intimate and painful moments in life. The part autobiography, part guide, details very traumatic experiences, such as her father’s abandonment and even her mother’s next remarriage. Of course, Metz also writes about body image struggles and her self-discovery journey in the book too.
Finding Forgiveness
Out of everything in her memoir, Chrissy said writing about her father was the toughest. When she was just nine, he left her and her mother. Recently, her father came forward to tabloids to say that Chrissy had abandoned him. To this Chrissy responded, “How does a child abandon their parent?” Despite this, she’s spent years trying to forgive him and maintain a relationship. She added, “But I also have a lot of love for him because, of course, he is my father.”
