Eric Roberts talked to us from his current movie set about battling addiction for many years and tells us the process it was to get to the good place he is at now. The one thing that everyone has to remember about addiction is that it does not only involve the addict but the family members as well. Eliza and Keaton gave us an inside look on what it is like in dealing with that. Keaton was estranged from his step dad Eric for many years. He said, “It took me figuring out how to love myself first, before I was able to forgive him.” This was a powerful segment, and you could see the family love between them all.
