The 'Hart of Dixie' Star explains why she reveals her dark past, 'I realized my silence said I cannot help nor change and that is not who I am.'

AceShowbiz - Jaime King made an emotional shocking confession on Instagram following Lady GaGa's Oscar performance dedicated to rape victims. The "Hart of Dixie" star called herself a "survivor," revealing that she suffered years of abuse as a minor.

Tagging the Mother Monster, she's grateful to her husband of nine years, Kyle Newman, and their two children. She also thanked her friends Lena Dunham "for her relentless bravery that always leads my Spirit to stand up" and Taylor Swift "for being there no matter what."

"Thank you to the only people I have told," the 36-yer-old star wrote in a lengthy caption of her picture when she was teen. "Thank you to @unwomen & all organizations that have tirelessly worked to somehow comfort & make right."

"Thank you to myself to choosing to not make this a cover story though that was what was suggested to me but to express from my heart to you all personally which felt the most honest way for me to speak | Thank you to my Soul, body, mind, emotions, my inner child, my younger self, I love you."

She added, "It's a night of celebration, of change, of not being ashamed of your race, creed color, situation, circumstances and environment, or past. Now I am free, somewhat. Thank you for the switch that went off inside finally when I realized my silence said I cannot help nor change and that is not who I am. I love you all very much for creating a safe space. The time is now."

"I was about 14 here," King explained her young look in the picture, before revealing when the abuse started, "It started at 12." She concluded, "Peace Be Still."
