judds230newpic.jpgNaomi Judd and her daughter Wynonna are opening up about sexual abuse they both suffered as children.

While on The View, Naomi, 65, recalls the abuser. She tells the ladies:

    "I rebuffed him, and it happened twice more. I knocked him away. I never said anything to anybody."

The Judds will be debuting their new series on The Oprah Winfrey Network this Sunday. When asked how they handled the topic on the show, Wynona, who also admits to being abused, says:

    "I was a little resentful that the cameras were on. But we're willing to step out on faith and hope that it helps someone else to tell someone because there is a lot of shame and secrecy."

In her book, "All That Is Bitter and Sweet," younger sister Ashley Judd discussed being sexually abused as a young girl.

Find out the name of Wynona's upcoming book in which she goes into detail about her abusive past ... after the jump.

The View Reacts To Bill O'Reilly's Controversial Comments

Oct 18, 2010 10:15 AM

The ladies of The View chatted live this morning about Bill O'Reilly's controversial appearance last Thursday, which caused outraged co-hosts Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg to walk off the set.

Barbara Walters said, "We must be able to have conversations without fury, without rage, without screaming, without obscenities, without walking off. It's very dramatic, people love train-wrecks, people want us to do more of it because it's good for the ratings. You don't walk out of your own home. You can walk out of somebody else's home, you don't walk out of your own home. He was someone we invited. We are used to Bill O'Reilly. He loves this, he loves to pull your chain, he loves to get you angry. This is just what he wanted."

However, Goldberg said that she found O'Reilly both "condescending" and "disrespectful," and added, "What Bill O'Reilly did not come onto our stage with was respect. He came on and he was condescending....I know that had I stayed there, it would've got, for me at least, it would've gotten worse. And the best thing I could've done, because he was so enraging and so disrespectful just to the five of us, I just thought, I'm done."

Behar defended her actions and said, "On this show we always speak about standing up to bigotry, so I stood up."

X17 Poll

What went wrong on The X Factor today with Britney Spears?

Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight!
I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later!
I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it!
