PR "Scandals" Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and his 16 year old ward Julia Holcomb

The following interview appeared on Life Matters in June 2013 after Tyler released his second autobiography publicly revealing the story of his relationship with a then 16 year old Julia Holcomb. The interview discusses her relationship with the singer, how she became his ward, and how she moved on and found meaning and comfort through her faith and marriage. Julia is now an active pro-choice advocate.

In December 2022, Holcomb filed a lawsuit against singer Steven Tyler for accusing him of sexual assault, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The lawsuit was filed following California legislation that temporarily waived statutes of limitations for childhood sexual abuse allegations.
