Paris
Hilton
recently
opened
up
about
the
2004
sex
tape
leak.
The
Hollywood
star
during
an
interview
with
Vanity
Fair,
said
that
the
tape
was
released
without
her
consent
by
her
ex-boyfriend
Rick
Salomon.
Hilton
revealed
that
the
release
left
her
with
long
term
trauma,
and
calling
it
"humiliating" she
added
it
is
"something
that
will
hurt
me
for
the
rest
of
my
life."
The
tape
was
meant
to
be
kept
between
Hilton
and
her
then-boyfriend
Rick
Saloman.
Reportedly,
Saloman
himself
posted
the
tape
on
the
internet
without
Hilton's
knowledge.
After
Paris
publicly
claimed
that
the
tapes
were
released
without
her
consent,
Salomon
sued
Hilton
for
defamation.
Hilton
then
countersued
him
for
the
release
of
the
tape.
They
settled
out
of
court
a
year
later
in
2005.
The
sex
tape
had
turned
into
a
media
sensation.
Recalling
the
incident
Paris
said,
"It's
always
there
in
the
back
of
my
mind.
When
it
happened,
people
were
so
mean
about
it
to
me.
The
way
that
I
was
spoken
about
on
nightly
talk
shows
and
the
media,
to
see
things
with
my
family
was
just
heartbreaking.
I
would
be
in
tears
every
single
day,
I
didn't
want
to
leave
my
house,
I
felt
like
my
life
was
over."
Hilton
added
that
she
felt
betrayed
as
it
was
a
private
experience
between
them.
"You
love
someone,
you
trust
someone
and
to
have
your
trust
betrayed
like
that
and
for
the
whole
world
to
be
watching
and
laughing
...
It
was
even
more
hurtful
to
me
to
have
these
people
think
that
I
did
this
on
purpose
-
that
killed
me."
Talking
about
facing
PTSD
she
added,
"It
still
gives
me
post-traumatic
stress
disorder
to
talk
about
it."
Paris
has
been
quite
open
about
her
every
public
traumatic
experience.
She
had
also
revealed
about
having
to
go
to
a
"behaviour
modification
school"
when
she
was
younger.
Currently,
the
Hollywood
celebrity
has
moved
on
with
her
life
and
recently
got
engaged.
Her
Boyfriend
Carter
Reum
had
proposed
to
Hilton
on
her
40th
birthday
after
dating
for
over
a
year.
