George Michael Recollects Christmas During His Troubled Childhood  George Michael |
George Michael will always love Christmas because the festive season helped him through his troubled childhood.
The Faith hitmaker, who grew up in north London, admits his parents were always "busy" and "stressed" throughout his younger years, and he spent much of his time feeling low.
But Michael reveals his family would pull together during the holidays.
He says, "I do love Christmas. I always have done, ever since I was young. When I was young, both my parents used to work so hard and they always seemed quite stressed to me. But at Christmas everyone would calm down and be nice to each other for a few days, and that used to make me feel very safe. I didn't feel particularly secure as a child, which I think came from my parents being so busy and distracted. They were just trying to make a better life for all of us, I suppose."
