When Kathy Hilton reacted with shock to Paris Hilton’s book and the revelation that Paris had an abortion, it really highlighted their complicated dynamic. Kathy is clearly very loving, but also emotionally distant in a way that suggests she does not want to hear the nitty gritty, painful details of anything. I also found it interesting how Nicky Hilton takes on an almost therapist like role, gently trying to help Kathy understand Paris’ perspective. Kathy seemed more upset that Paris did not tell her about the pregnancy, abortion, and other traumatic experiences than she was about Paris’ emotions or the shame Paris carried around them. There is also the story from Paris’ childhood about a diary she had hidden in her room. One day, she overheard her mom and her mom’s sisters laughing about it. That likely taught her at a young age that her feelings were something to be mocked or dismissed. The way Kathy described Paris as a “wild animal” and an “alien” while she was growing up was also striking. When Paris explained that hearing that made her feel bad, Kathy responded by saying, “No, you’re unusual.” Nicky then stepped in and said Paris was like that because she had been through so many horrific things. Also, Rosanna Arquette told Kathy that “something went down,” meaning she believed Paris had been SA’d. Kathy said she would have known if that were true, but even after hearing this, she never asked Paris about it.

“What is it about not knowing the truth about your child’s struggle that scares you so much?” This was an intense question for the therapist to ask Kathy Hilton, but it felt necessary. Kathy has always seemed distant when it comes to the trauma her daughter Paris experienced. Kathy explains that she does not want to know the full truth because she lived it and went through it. She admits that sometimes fear can outweigh love. When Paris, Nicky, and her other children were away at school, Kathy says she would lie in bed and cry. Other times, she would lie there feeling nothing. Kathy also spoke about her own childhood during therapy. She admitted that she never fully processed her parents’ divorce and described her mother, known as “Big Kathy,” as very controlling. The therapist reframed this by suggesting that her mother controlled situations in order to keep everyone safe. That was the environment Kathy was raised in, and as the oldest child, she learned that it was her responsibility to do the same. But then the therapist made a point that really landed. Sometimes, without realizing it, we think we are protecting our children when in reality we become the source of their pain: “Kathy, sometimes we don't even know that we aren't protecting and we've actually become the hurt. We've actually inflicted more hurt trying to protect them." Kathy then shared that the therapist had watched Paris’ documentary about her boarding school trauma and other experiences but Kathy admitted she has never watched it, not even the trailer. She is afraid to see it and says she has always been someone who prefers to sweep things under the carpet. It was especially interesting when Kathy said that Paris is the complete opposite of her and is not afraid of anything. The therapist gently challenged that, saying, “I think she’s afraid of a lot of things.” Show: Paris in Love 2022
