Who is julia holcomb

Recalling how the relationship ended, Holcomb wrote: "Steven was already involved with other women at that time. The fact that he was my guardian complicated things for him because he was legally responsible for me. I was young, had dropped out of high school, and did not understand my legal rights at the time.

I felt completely powerless. I left Steven in February and returned to live with my mother and stepfather. Steven called a few times after I returned home and then I never heard from him again. The experience of the forced abortion traumatized her so much that she is now a pro-life advocate with the 'Silent No More' awareness campaign, an anti-abortion campaign.

Holcomb, at the age of 70, opened a facility in Memphis for girls who have been neglected or abused. Tyler reflected on his abortion experience in his autobiography. And it comes out dead. I was pretty devastated. However, Tyler has faced zero consequences for sleeping with an underage girl who was his ward, impregnating her, and abandoning her, which technically puts him in the same club as Woody Allen — except Allen actually married his ward.

Over the years, Holcomb's tragedy that Tyler forced on her has become his go-to story about how seeing his unborn son's fetus messed him up.

In contrast, he has never spoken much about how he messed up Holcomb. Holcomb, however, has been angered by how Tyler has talked about their time together including them having sex in public spaces — something Holcomb disputes. She said in an interview: "He has talked of me as a sex object without any human dignity. I have made a point over these long years never to speak of him, yet he has repeatedly humiliated me in print with distortions of our time together. But we know about her life situations when she was young.

When she was still a child and before she met Tyler at 16, she had a very sad life. Holcomb had been in a tragic car accident. She lost her brother and grandfather and was severely injured her.

Her father had abandoned her mother was abandoned and her second husband was to an alcoholic. These conditions were probably the reasons why she started to hang out with a much-older friend who as per her, encouraged her to seduce a rock star. Also her mother just signed away her guardian rights to Tyler. He was in his late twenties and a drug abuser.

Julia Holcomb was the ward of Steven Tyler who had promised her mother that he will take care of her education in return for her being signed over. While still in the hospital recovering from smoke inhalation she was coerced into a horrific saline abortion. She is the author of the memoir The Light of the World - the Steven Tyler and Julia Holcomb Story, published on LifeSiteNews and credits her faith in Jesus Christ as the life line that helped her rebuild her life after her abortion trauma.

She writes, "I pray that all those who have had abortions or have participated in any way in an abortion procedure may find in my story, not judgment or condemnation, but a renewed hope in God's steadfast love, forgiveness and peace. Marriage and the family are the building blocks of all virtuous societies. I pray that our nation may find it's way back to God's plan by respecting the life of unborn children and strengthening the sanctity of marriage.

Julia is also an accomplished artist, having studied painting at the University of Houston and the Toronto Academy of Realist Art. She specializes in iconography, portraiture and landscape realism. Today, Julia is happily married to her husband of 30 years and together they have 7 children.

She represented Jesus with excellence through her testimony. She was very generous to donate the remainder of her speaking fee to our ministry! We were pleasantly surprised at how much money we raised! Thank you Julia, and Ambassador Speakers Bureau! Diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy does not hold The car accident and family trauma triggered a chain of events that led to my mother and first stepfather to divorce.

My stepfather was committed to a mental hospital briefly, and mother had an emotional breakdown. My sister and I went to live with my aunt and uncle for some months.

When we returned home to my mother after the divorce, things were not the same. My mother seemed wounded and disillusioned with life. She was still working as a teacher but she was living with my second stepfather, though they were not married yet. My sister and I were left on our own most of the time. Previously, I had been raised going to church, but after the accident we just never went back. My sister and I became angry and rebellious. My sister left home when she was about 16, and backpacked around the country with her boyfriend.

There I was at age 15, my sister gone, and feeling like I was in the way. My friendships changed from the kids we knew at church to the kids who hung out at the local Teen Center. Some of them took drugs and drank. A few months before I met Steven, while I was still 15, I became friends with a girl who had access to backstage parties at concerts. She was 24 years old, and although our acquaintance was brief, she was a pivotal change in the course of my life, and ours was one of the most dangerous friendships I ever formed.

She quickly taught me to dress in revealing clothes to get noticed and use sex as a hook to try to catch a rock star. I still remember dressing to go to the Aerosmith concert, intending to get backstage with her. I went to the concert hoping to meet Steven and after the concert we met for the first time. At that time, I thought he was the best thing in my life. My sad, vulnerable story, as well as my youth and personal attractiveness captured his interest.

My mother signed over guardianship of me to Steven after I had moved to Boston. I remember my surprise when Steven told me she had signed the papers and trying to take this in mentally. A sense of vulnerability came over me, knowing that I was his ward, but we were not married. He had not expressed his intentions of a long-term relationship with me. He had mentioned that he wanted guardianship papers so I could travel across state lines when he was on tour.

I had told him my mother would not sign me over to him. I asked him how he had got her to do it. Steven was really my only hope at that point. I became lost in a rock and roll culture.

When we first lived together I took the birth control pill. It is not true that my pregnancy with Steven was unplanned, as has been written. After some months together, Steven spoke to me of his desire to have a child. He had grown up in the New Hampshire countryside and at times he behaved like a down-to-earth farm boy. He wanted a family and he asked me if I was willing to have a child with him. I was touched by his sincerity and said yes. I wanted children, and began to believe he must truly love me since he had made himself my guardian and was asking to have children with me.

He threw my birth control pills off the balcony of the hotel where we were staying, into the street far below. Within a year I became pregnant. I had never been pregnant before, contrary to what Steven has written. At first Steven and I were both happy about the baby. He asked his grandmother if he could give me her wedding ring. His parents were conflicted about the idea of Steven and I marrying. His mother was supportive of everything Steven wanted and I remember truly loving her.

She was such a kindhearted lady, with a wonderful sense of humor. His father had grave reservations because of my youth and immaturity. His grandmother declined to give us the ring. She loved Steven but expressed concerns that if we divorced, the ring would leave the family. Things went quickly downhill from there for the two of us.

When we left that night, Steven and I had a heated argument: I felt he should buy me a ring at a jeweler and we should get married anyway. He did not. Looking back, I do not fault him for a change of heart after his parents expressed concerns. Marriage is a serious step that should not be jumped into, even when a baby is on the way.

Still, I was in a bad position. I thought I loved him, I wanted to marry him, and he had asked me to marry him; now the wedding was off and I was very angry with him for not standing by me. It seemed like a cowardly change of heart after he had asked me to have a baby with him and purposefully set out to get me pregnant. For the first time I realized that I should not have been foolish enough to conceive a child outside of marriage with a man who might not be interested in a life-long relationship.

His guardianship of me complicated things further. I was subordinate to him as in a parent relationship and felt I had little control over my life.

I had trusted him and now was the moment of truth. It was the fall of We returned to our apartment in Boston, and within a few weeks he was touring with his band.

Steven would call me every day to check in with me and I asked him for money to get groceries. He promised to send Ray Tabano over the next day to take me shopping. I remember waiting by the window for Ray to arrive.
