Speaking with South Carolina news station WIS-TV, the parent stated that when the King Richard star slapped her son, he slapped all of them in the family.
“When Will slapped Chris, he slapped all of us”, Rosalie stated candidly. “But he really slapped me. Because when you hurt my child, you hurt me.”
