NEW YORK, Feb. 3 (UPI) -- U.S. actress Mackenzie Phillips says the incestuous relationship she had with her late father, singer John Phillips, was not consensual as she has said before.
Phillips, 49, described her sexual relationship with her father as consensual in her memoir "High on Arrival," which was published last year.
However, TVGuide.com reported Wednesday she said on Joy Behar's HLN chat show that she didn't categorize the relationship properly in her book and that her father actually raped her.
"I'd like to reframe my word, 'consensual,'" Phillips said. "As I was writing the book, I thought, this word, it kept sitting wrong with me, but I used it for lack of a better word, and since then I've been schooled by thousands of incest survivors all across the world that there really is no such thing as consensual incest due to the inherent power a parent has over a child."
