The interview, conducted by Hot Press senior editor Jason O’Toole, offers a fascinating insight into Kevin Spacey’s childhood. Randy also tells Hot Press that he now wants to sit down with his estranged brother over a glass of Bailey’s Irish Cream this Christmas to openly discuss their past for the first time. Randy says that he always “sensed” that Kevin was gay – even as a “shy” child.

Randy states that being sexually abused by their father warped his own attitudes towards sex, adding that he will never forgive his father, who is now dead.

Revealing that both of Kevin Spacey’s parents were abused themselves as children, his brother Randy sensationally reveals, “My mother was abused, beaten. Not sexually abused. But father was sexually molested by a scoutmaster. He evidently enjoyed it. It wasn’t any big deal to him, as he said.”

On wanting to kill their paedophile father, Randy says, “I sat in the closet with a loaded luger that he had brought back from World War II. I figured out how to load it. I was going to blow his ass away. I sat there all sweaty palmed with that gun in my hand: a little 14-year-old kid in the closet. And if he would’ve opened up that door, I can guarantee you it would’ve been all over.”

On how being sexually abused by their father warped his own attitudes towards sex, Randy reveals, “I was extremely intimidated by intimacy. Women were objects. I detested homosexuality with a passion. I didn’t want to have anything to do with sex with men. I lacked the emotional stability to understand how to truly love somebody with all your heart.”

On the possibility that their paedophile father actually raped Kevin, Randy reveals, “I spent my childhood trying to escape ‘the creature’ and protect my little brother. Could I have been there all the time to protect him? My efforts may have been for nothing. The allegations against my brother are scary. To think that I could’ve spent an entire childhood protecting my brother from nothing! It shows how cruel life is.”

Kevin Spacey’s brother has much more to say to Hot Press. The full interview is available only in Hot Press magazine.
