Chloe Lattanzi's Anorexia Recovery
"Oliver Newton John’s 21-year-old daughter, Chloe Lattanzi, has been suffering from the eating disorder anorexia nervosa for two years.
The mother and daughter duo recently gave an interview to the Australian magazine ‘Woman’s Day’, in which they discussed Chloe’s eating disorder and the role Olivier has played in aiding her daughter’s recovery.
Chloe revealed that while she was in denial that she had an eating problem, she is taking very good care of herself now, and realises how lucky she is to be recovering from the potentially fatal disease.
“I have gone through an eating disorder. I don’t hide that. It’s nothing that I’m ashamed of,” said Chloe.
Her mother, Olivier, said parents need to be there for their child if they have an eating disorder. They must be supportive and prepared to listen, and try to understand the cause of the disorder.
Olivier advised: “The parents need to look at why their child has developed such a detrimental disease. And look at the issues causing the disorder. Listen to your child. Be supportive. Eating disorders are usually nothing to do with food. Parents need to be with their child to see them through it.”
Chloe has received help from a specialist therapist who deals with eating disorders, as well as advice from a nutritionist. Even so, Olivier believes: “All the therapists in the world can’t help if the parents aren’t present, loving and supportive”.
Chloe is now concentrating on her recovery and pursuing a music career just like her mother. She has already had a few acting roles and has sung alongside Olivier on stage. Chloe is now preparing to release her debut album ‘Lonely Nights in Paradise’.
Olivier was a good friend of the Grammy award-winning singer Karen Carpenter, who, in 1983, tragically collapsed and died from heart failure due to chronic anorexia at the age of 32. "
The phrase that struck me from Grazia was that Chloe thought it was important to be truthful about her disorder (which I presume is that she's healled enough to admit it?) & she is quoted as saying "I've gone through an eating disorder. I don't hide that. Its nothing to be ashamed of. She admits that she'd been ill for about 2 years but had been in total denial of it.
I hope that she continues to improve., as it's nice to hear of stars/stars' children talking about these things (imo).
(but I also noticed that they'd spelt Olivia's name Oliver all the way through which made it weird...)
If that picture is of her "improved" I'd hate to have seen her when she thought she was ill. She looks hideous
Jeeze...sure are a lot of eating disorder stories coming out amongst tinseltown lately...or maybe it's just me...
I don't know but having suffered from eating disorders myself it is one of the worst possible things you could ever go through...sadly the numbers of suffers of eating disorders are climbing and this is a becoming almost an epidemic it seems...
Truly saddening...
Hopefully she'll recover and learn to be happy and healthy. =)
The brain doesn't need blood. It just needs to be kept wet.
I don't understand it when anorexic wear such skimpy clothes. You'd have to pretty comfortable with your bod to wear such short shorts.
She's also had plastic surgery on her face. Once she moved to LA, she went weird. And it looks like a boob job too; if she just had anorexia and is that thin, i doubt she'd had breasts that big.
Her mother looks better than her- still natural looking.
Wait-I thought ONJ raised her daughter in Malibu? She's had a place there for years.
Oh, i was under the impression they moved from Sydney to LA. Chloe was normal in Sydney, i remember she got messed up when she moved.
"Newton-John was married to Matt Lattanzi from 1984 to 1995. They had one child during their marriage, a girl named Chloe Rose Lattanzi, born in 1986. Chloe was to launch her own pop career later in 2006 with her debut album Lonely Nights in Paradise.
From 1996, Newton-John lived with gaffer/cameraman Patrick McDermott. However, on June 30, 2005, directly before her new album Stronger Than Before hit stores, McDermott went missing following a fishing trip off the coast of California. The Coast Guard has not ruled out the possibility of foul play but concedes that they have few leads. Newton-John, who was vacationing at her self-owned Gaia Retreat & Spa in Australia at the time, is not a suspect. [2]
Fox News Network reported on June 4, 2006, that some witnesses claim to have seen McDermott alive and well in Mexico. A theory is that he staged his disappearance in order to avoid court proceedings brought by an ex-wife concerning child support payments. Newton-John has refused to comment on such speculation." (hope this helps).
Chloe was born in CA in 86.
The article did say that she moved schools a couple of times as a teen & that this didn't help - maybe that was it? & Chloe is stated via IMDB as being in the Oz version of Hair....?
Poor Olivia... she really doesn't seem to have much luck does she. I hope things work out for her, she's lovely.
Curiouser and curiouser...
Chloe always seemed to be a bit of a starstruck child. From very early on she wanted to be in the same biz as her parents. She used to be a chubby carbon copy of her dad. To see her like this now is quite shocking, but at the same time not so. You know how you have stage moms. But there are those kids, like Chloe, who have a need within themselves to seek the limelight. Weird.

I nearly died when I seen the pics of Chloe. Last time I seen her (in pics) she was this gorgeous brunette with a healthy figure. I would not of even knew it was her only for the article.
I also noticed this about her boobs. What'd she do to her face, nose job?Originally Posted by StayYoung&Pretty
She looks like a much skinnier version of this girl I went to college with. Which is interesting because Donatella's daughter looks like her too. Must be that sunken eye look.
Also, is it just me or does her midsection look fine? I mean she doesn't look too thin until you look at her arms and legs.
All you can do at life is play along and hope that sometimes you get it right.
I'm not sure....

Id guess that she might have had the tip of her nose refined & her boobs done (no brainer really) however, I wonder how much is the anorexia? & what she'll look like when she returns to a "normal" weight?
I love the picture from 2003 & think that she looks really pretty there!
more pics etc www.myspace.com/chloelattanziofficial
Her songs are very 80's...
I kinda like them actually.
