Lily Collins Holds Nothing Back in Open Letter to Her Dad Phil Collins

Lily Collins wrote an open letter to her dad Phil Collins for her new book of essays, “Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me,” and she holds nothing back at all!

The 27-year-old actress has had an up-and-down relationship with her dad, a famous singer, over the years and she tells him that she forgives him for the mistakes he’s made.

“Because my dad was often gone, I never wanted to do anything that would make him stay away even longer,” Lily wrote in the book, out in stores now. “I became extra careful about what I said and how I said it, afraid he’d think I was angry or didn’t love him. And the truth is, I was angry. I missed him and wanted him there.”
