Washington
(ANI):
Dame
Julie
Andrews
has
revealed
in
her
autobiography
that
her
stepfather
tried
to
kiss
her
as
a
child.
In
a
shocking
episode
in
her
autobiography,
the
Sound
Of
Music
star
disclosed
that
she
was
forced
to
sleep
with
a
bolt
on
her
bedroom
door
as
a
child
in
an
attempt
to
hide
from
her
stepfather,
Ted
Andrews,
who
once
kissed
her
drunkenly
in
her
bedroom
in
1951.
"Suddenly
he
said,
'I
really
must
teach
you
how
to
kiss
properly'
and
kissed
me
full
on
the
lips.
It
was
a
deep,
moist
kiss
-
a
very
unpleasant
experience," Contactmusic
quoted
her,
as
saying.
"Ten
minutes
later
he
came
back
in.
I
was
burrowed
beneath
the
covers,
facing
the
wall.
He
leaned
over
me
and
tried
to
kiss
me
again.
I
rolled
nearer
the
wall
and
mumbled,
'I'm
really
sleepy.
Goodnight,
now!'"
she
added.
Writing
in
her
forthcoming
autobiography
Home:
A
Memoir
Of
My
Early
Years,
the
72-year-old
Oscar
winner
also
revealed
another
incident
when
Ted
said
he
wanted
to
"cuddle"
her.
She
said
she
felt
"trapped
and
claustrophobic",
adding:
"Something
about
it
didn't
feel
right
to
me
at
all."
Andrews
adopted
Canadian
entertainer
Ted's
surname
after
he
married
her
mother
Barbara.
