As the world is changing, people are becoming more open-minded now. This inspired and motivated the Zoolander actress and global icon Paris Hilton to come forward and talk about her past, which she had buried, thinking she would never dig it back up. Paris spoke openly about the sexual assault she had as a teenager, saying, "This was also something that I didn't want to talk about because there was so much shame around it."

She said, "I was a kid, and I was not ready for that." Paris chose surrogacy because her pregnancy in her early twenties, which she had gotten past back gushing in front of her eyes, and the trauma she went through during the abortion couldn't prepare her for having another child. Hilton also spoke widely about the sexual harassment she faced in Utah. Dark childhood stories that she had always kept hidden were all revealed in a candid moment.
