Kellie Pickler was full of tears during her performance during the CMA Awards on Wednesday night, singing “I Wonder,” which is a song about her mother who abandoned her when she was 2 years old.

Cynthia Malone, Kellie’s mother, said she was forced to leave her child because of the abusive relationship she was in. She told the Charlotte Observer in July:

“I knew God had to have a purpose for [Kellie] because there was too many times I would have miscarried because of all the hitting and beating on my stomach.”

Watch the video below, but make sure to have some tissue ready. This performance was really touching.

So who was that in the audience with her little brother??

and why would her mother leave her with the abuser?

If I remember correctly from AI, she was raised by her grandparents and that must’ve been her cousin or nephew who is like her little brother. I could be wrong about the little boy though.
