The Hollywood star Matthew McConaughey shocked his fans this week by revealing that he was “molested” as a teenager and was blackmailed into losing his virginity when he was only 15 years-old.

“I was blackmailed into having sex for the first time when I was 15,” McConaughey wrote in his new memoir “Greenlights.” “I was certain I was going to hell for the premarital sex. Today, I am merely certain that I hope that’s not the case.”

The 50 year-old Academy Award-winner also said that he was sexually abused by an older man three years later.

“I was molested by a man when I was 18 while knocked unconscious in the back of a van,” he wrote.

Despite all of this trauma, McConaughey said that he does not like to think of himself as a “victim.”

“I have a lot of proof that the world is conspiring to make me happy,” he explained.

These are far from the only surprising revelations in McConaughey’s autobiography, as he also wrote that his father James Donald McConaughey died while he was having sex with his mother Kay.

“I got a call from my Mom. ‘Your dad died.’ My knees buckled. I couldn’t believe it. He was my dad. Nobody or nothing could kill him. Except mom,” McConaughey wrote. “He’d always told me and my brothers, ‘Boys, when I go, I’m gonna be makin’ love to your mother.’ And that’s what happened. He had a heart attack when he climaxed.”

James died in 1992, and he’d had a tumultuous on-again off-again relationship with Kay, who he married three separate times. McConaughey was conceived just after their third wedding.

“They were, at times, violent,” McConaughey said of his parents. “As I say in the book, that is how they communicated. They were divorced twice, married three times, I mean, yeah, it was like the Pacific Ocean in a storm.”

These days, McConaughey is loving his life as a dad, as he relishes the role of father as being a “privilege and responsibility.”

“The only thing I ever knew I wanted to be was a father,” the star explained. “And it’s remained the pinnacle for me. Being a dad was always my only dream. … I can’t think of anything being more important.”
