We went out with a bang. They are one of country music's most enigmatic families, with another member on Hollywood's A-List, to boot. Collectively known as "The Judds," Wynonna and Naomi Judd became one of the most popular country acts of the s. The living legends were even honored with an exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame, but all was not cowboy boots and love songs. The Judds' lives are an ever evolving story of perseverance, a true testament to human strength that started long before fame.
Over the years they've shared their emotional struggle through interviews and memoirs or, in the less fortunate cases, it was caught by the tabloids. Though they've been through the ringer one thing is true: the Judds always come out the other side swinging.
This is the sad, tragic story of the Judds. According to excerpts of the book published by Today , Judd alleges that she was "sexually abused by a family member" as a child. She was also the victim of rape after being taken advantage of by "a creepy Frenchman" when she was pursuing a modeling career in Japan at just 15 years old.
Another assault followed that experience, when "an adult male model who lived above her" tried to force himself on her until she "was able to persuade him to stop. Judd also alleged that her mother and step-father, Larry Strickland, engaged in "wildly sexually inappropriate" behavior in front of her and her sister when they were growing up.

In the time since Ashley's damning revelations, both her mother Naomi and sister Wynonna have confessed to being sexually abused by men in their lives as well. In , Ashley Judd uncovered a tracking device on her car and immediately filed a police report suggesting her half-sister Wynonna Judd was to blame, according to ABC News. Come to find out, the device was registered to a private investigator working for Wynonna. In a bizarre twist, the car was never driven by Ashley, but by Wynonna and Arch's year-old daughter, Grace.
Ashley believed the device was planted due to an ongoing custody dispute between her and Wynonna as the girl was in Ashley's care. According to another article by ABC News , Ashley released a statement about the family drama saying, "The issue at hand is the illegal violation of my privacy in that a tracking device was secretly and unlawfully placed on my vehicle.
For my safety and that of everyone around me, I naturally filed a police report, as any citizen would and should. She also slammed the police department for leaking details of the report to the media. In , Wynonna's life would be changed forever after learning that her second husband, D. Roach, was arrested on child sex assault and battery charges. At the time, the couple had only been married for four years. Despite the news, Wynonna knew the type of man she married.
She delivered a shocking confession saying, "I knew what I was getting into and I tried to change it. I knew that both Roach and I had issues with addiction when I married him. I know my life. I know the people I chose, I know why I chose them and I really thought that I could change people through loving them enough. It doesn't work that way. She claims that singular action "blew the door open to my soul. She confessed to knowing Roach's victim and explained the healing phase had begun for his or her family.
I literally had to physically, emotionally and spiritually literally place them at the feet of Jesus. She adds that Roach was in recovery. As for her personal life, she's trashed anything that reminded her of Roach's memory. I don't wish him dead or anything like that. I just wish to be one of those people that doesn't spend my life being defined by that. Important days like weddings usually call for heaps of family and fun.
