At age 13, freestyle skier Kelly Sildaru rose to international prominence as the youngest Winter X-Games gold medalist ever. Coached by her father, Kelly became a media sensation. But the young star had a dark secret: her father had allegedly been mentally and physically abusing her for years. Kelly’s story reveals the pressure young athletes face and the courage and resilience it takes to put their well-being first.
