Jennifer Siebel Newsom has opened up about the death of her older sister in Hawaii and revealed that she accidentally ran her over with a golf buggy.
Governor Gavin Newsom's wife admitted that days before her seventh birthday, she had been playing on the carts with several other children, including her sister Stacia, in Hawaii in 1981.
The second-eldest of five daughters, Siebel Newsom, 48, had been on a family vacation when the cart reversed and killed her sibling who she hadn't seen hiding behind her buggy.
Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, she wrapped her arms around herself as she told the story, expanding that she felt the need to push herself in all aspects of her life to make up for her sister's death.
'I felt the pressure to be perfect, to make my parents forget, by being two daughters instead of one,' she said.
'I'm sure there was survivor's guilt, and I'm sure, in my subconscious, it's like I have to make up for that loss.
'And I have to do something to improve other people's lives or have an impact, double my own, which is a little crazy. I don't use the word 'crazy.' But you know, it's aspirational.
'I realized that I'm really hard on myself. I realized that you can't blame a 6- [or] 7-year-old. You can't ask them to understand things.'
She also opened up about having her case against disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein dismissed in 2022.
Jurors could not reach a verdict, meaning that the disgraced movie mogul has been facing the possibility of a retrial.
She claimed Weinstein sexually assaulted her during a 2005 meeting – telling her: 'Relax, this is going to make you feel better.'

What is it with rich people killing folks?
Golf carts don't just "reverse", they have a handle that needs to be moved and it's typically tough to move from drive, thru neutral, to reverse, especially for a 7 year old.
get all the bad news out early so it can disappear into the media black hole.
Why do people feel the need to expose all the nasty bits of their lives?
Jerry Springer just died last month. Let’s let this narcissistic dirt spilling die also.
That is not a skeleton, but a sob story for some sympathy.
What utter horse crap— from the wifey. No believable and NOT the public’s problem to need to know or subjugate logic of the lunacy of a clown like Newsom (a dictator self absorbed pimp with intermarriage relationship to the Pelosi crime family. It will not assuage intelligent people- only the real stupid whining a@@holes who spend their days reading Parade.
If she killed her sister as the story says it isnt survivors guilt she’s feeling its guilt. They’re different things.
I am thinking the same. They are getting out ahead of it.
Paul Pelosi's brother was killed in a car accident while Paul was unhurt.
Take the keys away from both.
Yes, trying to humanize these creeps and engender sympathy to garner all the soccer mommies and heads of mush.
Ever ridden in a Nash Rambler?
I owned a Rambler, but forget which one it was, it had a clutch so not one of the luxury models.
"Hey buddy, how can I get this car out of 2nd gear?" BEEP! BEEP!
I expect if the guys above (#37) don’t get the reference, you can help ‘em out.
