Anna Kendrick candidly talked about her relationship with her father before he passed away during Armchair Expert podcast, January 9, 2023.
Actress (37) said her dad, William King Kendrick died at 75 of end-stage liver cirrhosis. William and Kendrick's mom Janice divorced when actress was a teenagerand he later married his wife Judith, per People.
Actress shared that she began therapy three years ago and during sessions, she discovered that there were "Unspoken things" between her and her dad, however they "Both understood."
"I don't mean to denigrate anyone that does this, but I didn't need to have Hallmark thing where I spelled it out because we both understand," she explained.
Oscar nominee also discussed difficulties in planning quality time with her dad amid his failing health and uncertainties about how long he had left.
"Cat with nine lives, this man, absolutely. I would be in middle of production going, 'If I need to come home tell me. It will probably blow up this movie because it's a very small movie and they don't have funding, whatever, but if that's what's happening let me know, I'll go.' It was never clear," said Kendrick.
"Especially in last couple of years, there were constantly these updates about his health and we don't talk about anything. So, you know, there were these very vague but somehow very serious updates happening all time and we couldn't really read between lines and figure out what are we talking about," she said. "I would just love timeline, but we can't really ask those questions."–Agencies
