Bobby Bones recalls the feeling of displacement he had as a child in this emotional preview clip of RunningWild:
champion joins Grylls for an adventure in a Norwegian fjord on Tuesday's new episode -- traversing giant rock formations and rappelling down a 300-foot waterfall -- and along the way, he opens up about the painful past that's inspired his outgoing public persona.
"I do stand-up so I can feel love," he admits in ET's exclusive preview. "For me, I never had that...My mom was an addict, a lot of drugs and a lot of alcohol. She died in her 40s. So she was never really present even though she was there." Bones gets emotional as he recalls the feeling of displacement he had as a child. After his biological father left the family when Bones was just"five or six," he lived with his grandmother for a time, but never had a room of his own. The Arkansas native recalls sleeping on couches and keeping his clothes and possessions stowed underneath.If you are using ad-blocking software, please disable it and reload the page.
However, Bones admits to still carrying guilt about his late mother's struggles."She got pregnant with me when she was 15 years old, and so she never had a shot," he notes, wondering to himself if she would have had a more"valuable" life if not for him.
