Summary

This week, Father Cooper sits down with Emma Kenney. Emma spent more than half of her life starring as Debbie Gallagher on the TV show “Shameless” and in this episode Emma spills all of the tea about growing up on set. Emma even dishes which co-star she had a crush on. She gets personal and opens up about her decision to go to rehab at a young age and shares new insight on that experience. As a child actor on the set of an adult show, young Emma was exposed to many explicit topics (Weed! Cocaine! Dildos! Nymphos!) and even had her first kiss with the cameras rolling…and her dad in a front row seat. This episode sheds light (and many funny stories) on what it is like to grow up on the set of one of the most popular TV shows. Enjoy Daddies! Learn more about your ad choices.
