Julia Roberts and her siblings makes headlines again after her half-sister Nancy Motes' suicide letter is presented in court, revealing new details.
Julia Roberts may be "America's Sweetheart" but she definitely wasn't the apple of her half-sister Nancy Motes' eyes. The actress has once again been thrust into the limelight for being the potential reason behind Motes' suicide earlier this year.
Nancy, 37 died of a drug overdose in February. Previous reports revealed that Motes left behind a 5-page suicide note, blaming the "Pretty Woman" for her death. New details related to the note reveal that Motes blamed Roberts and her family.
"My mother and so-called 'siblings' get nothing except the memory that they are the ones that drove me into the deepest depression I've ever been in," Motes wrote. "I have suffered thru this disease all my life, however It has never been this bad."
The new information was revealed in documents presented in Los Angeles court as part of a legal battle between Motes' fiancé John Dilbeck and her family over her estate. Motes was a professional dog walker and pet sitter operating in the area. She was also a production assistant and reportedly didn't get along with her famous half-sister. Last August, during an interview with NY Daily News she claimed that Roberts teased her about her weight when they were younger. However, she did reveal that the two are trying to mend their broken relationship though it's still a "work in progress." Even days before her death, Motes took to twitter to call Roberts "cruel and a "B**ch."
The accusations throw forward the pitfalls of celebritydom and how it affects near and dear ones. A mourning Roberts has made it clear to the media that she's very disturbed with the whole incident.
This is not the first time a famous celebrity has been accused of being cruel to siblings or family and it won't be the last - probably not to this extend though!
