Pattie Mallette struggled with many issues as a young woman and had to make difficult choices.
Her most recent autobiography, “Nowhere But Up: The Story of Justin Bieber’s Mom,” sheds light on the violence she experienced prior to falling pregnant at a young age.
Mallette is forthright and open in her memoir about how difficult it was to move past her tragic past and establish a new life for her son Justin Bieber.
The most recent book by Pattie Mallette, “Nowhere But Up: The Story of Justin Bieber’s Mum,” opens up about the challenging circumstances she faced prior to getting pregnant.
She claimed that the humiliation and guilt she experienced was typical for those who have experienced sexual assault.
Mallette eventually attempted suicide because she was so stressed out from her drug and alcohol use.
This came about as a result of years of pain that were made worse by heavy drug use.
When Mallette, then 17, discovered she was pregnant with her son Justin, it was advised that she terminate the pregnancy, but she was aware that this would be impossible.
Despite her determination to make it work and her sincere faith, she made the decision to keep him and give him the best life she could.
Mallette thought he was singing a beautiful song when he first heard Justin sobbing. Mallette described it as a delicate “A hah, a hah,” and at the time, all she wanted to do was hold him and show him how much she loved him.
