Ashley Judd had shocking things to say about her mother and sister in her new memoir, but in a new radio interview the actress says they're not upset about it.

You can hear the audio on Breaking Celebrity News.

In her tell-all book, All That Is Bitter & Sweet, Ashley detailed a childhood filled with abandonment, sexual abuse and uncertainty.

"I loved my mother, but at the same time I dreaded the mayhem and uncertainty that followed her everywhere...I often felt like an outsider observing my mom's life as she followed her own dreams," Ashley wrote.

The release of her book has lead to reports that her sister, Wynonna, and mother, Naomi, are upset about the family secrets being spilled and the light being shed on them - but in a radio interview with WBAL in Baltimore, Maryland, Ashley says that's not the case.

"That's actually not true... I'm abstinent from all press and media about myself for precisely that reason," Ashley said.

"It works really well because it's none of my business what people think of me. I'm absolutely powerless and have no control over what the media does... My mother and sister are beautiful, charismatic, likable, funny people."
