In the "Say Everything" memoir, actress Ione Skye disclosed never-heard-before anecdotes about her past relationship with Red Hot Chilli Peppers star Anthony Kiedis.
At the age of only 16, the Say Anything actress started dating the rock band frontman. At that time, Anthony was 24. In her new memoir, she detailed her past relationships and surprised everyone by revealing the news of her undergoing an abortion in 1988.
Anthony Kiedis, now 62, got Ione Skye, now 54, pregnant at a young age and later took care of the expenditures for her abortion. However, the actress did not find her ex-boyfriend beside her while undergoing the procedure. She wrote in her memoir that she has forgiven him for what he did in the past.
Everything we know about Anthony Kiedis and Ione Skye's relationship timeline
Decades back, in the 1980s, Anthony struggled with drug addiction and was in and out of rehab. When he got his ex-girlfriend pregnant when she was just a teen, he was not ready to be a father.
Ione expressed her thoughts of her past relationships in her memoir, mentioning her romantic association with the rocker. Talking about the abortion, she disclosed how Kiedis
"Guiltily dropped me off at the curb."
In a conversation with The Mirror, she recalled those days and shared,
"I think in hindsight, maybe it just was all too much, like he was running from his feelings. He must have clearly had feelings about it that he couldn’t handle."
Instead of taking anyone's assistance during this sensitive time, Skye went through the process alone. She even acknowledged the fact that she freaked out even to ask anyone to join her. She shared,
"I think I thought I was a little grown up and I should just be doing these things. It was sort of lonely, but I was pretending to be a grgrown-up"
The actress believed she was
"the type of girl who’d wanted a baby since I was a baby, who used to fantasize about finding a swaddled infant on my doorstep or catching a flying ghost baby with a butterfly net."
However, the reality as a young girl was quite the opposite.
"But fantasizing was different from seeing,” she wrote. “I couldn’t see having a baby at this point."
Anthony Kiedis and Ione Skye broke up the next year after the actress's abortion. At the age of 21, in 1992, she married Adam Horovitz, who was 25 at that time. However, the former couple divorced around eight years later in 2000. She also opened up about her divorce with the Beastie Boys star in her recently published memoir.
Later, in 2008, she tied the knot with Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony celebrated in India.
Anthony Kiedis apologized to Ione Skye
Kiedis has been in and out of rehab back in the day. However, once he transformed himself and turned sober, he apologized to Skye by expressing his thoughts in a letter. He felt sorry for cheating on her, not accompanying her during her abortion, being harsh to her, and more.
While talking with The Mirror, Ione said,

"It was very thorough, really amazing. It actually did a lot to be honest."
She also shared how the Kiedis mentioned "every detail, everything he ever did that was upsetting" and the letter felt "really heartfelt and honest."
