AUDIO: Ashley Judd Says Family Not Upset Over Tell-All Memoir

The release of her book has lead to reports that her sister, Wynonna, and mother, Naomi, are upset about the family secrets being spilled and the light being shed on them - but in a radio interview with WBAL in Baltimore, Maryland, Ashley says that's not the case.

"That's actually not true... I'm abstinent from all press and media about myself for precisely that reason," Ashley said.

"It works really well because it's none of my business what people think of me. I'm absolutely powerless and have no control over what the media does... My mother and sister are beautiful, charismatic, likable, funny people."

Ashley admits to being unprepared for how people would receive her book and the backlash that would follow.

"I don't mind being called a fool about it because I really didn't expect it," Ashley said.

"With regard to the book coming out I have been wholly unprepared for the two or three chapters about my back story presently dominating the media narrative in a book which is really about international human rights, public health, and is based on diaries that I've been keeping since 2004 visiting slums and brothels."
