Mother of Steven Tyler’s aborted baby joins post-abortive support group as a spokesperson
Post-abortive support group Silent No More announced today that Julia Holcomb has joined its roster of speakers:
For 36 years she has kept quiet about her relationship with the rock star Steven Tyler and the abortion he talked her into in 1975. But Julia Holcomb will be Silent No More.
Janet Morana and Georgette Forney, co-founders of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign, have announced that Ms. Holcomb has joined the Campaign that gives women and men a platform to speak about the way abortion has harmed them and millions of others just like them, and to let those who are still suffering in silence know that healing and redemption is possible.
Ms. Holcomb’s incredible story is proof of that.
Now a married mother of six sons, Ms. Holcomb is setting the record straight about her relationship with the Aerosmith frontman. “I had decided I would never talk about Steven, but he continues to talk about me, including in his two books,” Ms. Holcomb said. “I decided it was time for me to tell the truth about our relationship.”
Julia began to talk publicly about her horrific experience this past spring and is now speaking to pro-life audiences. Arizona Right to Life featured Julia at its state conference on September 24.
Look for Julia to speak on behalf of Silent No More at the 2013 March for Life on January 23. View her touching videotaped testimony at the SNM website. Also see the interview she gave to LifeSiteNews.com.
We welcome this courageous mom to the pro-life fold!

That’s good news – I hope she finds a lot of support from that wonderful community.
I can’t help but wonder if the reason Steven Tyler still talks about her is b/c of that abortion. I remember a past post where he described it as horrific. No doubt he has a lot of demons about that (among other things).
What Steve must be thinking…
Entertainment Tonight should get his reaction, stat!
Welcome, Julia!! Standing with you as one who is silent no more.
You are in my prayers.

im so glad she joining snm. what a wonderful group of women who are not afraid to tell the absolute blunt truth about abortion. just like model jennifer o neil. she exclaimed “i had an abortion and i payed for it for the rest of my life” im sure shed give it all back for that baby.
Heather, reminds me of actress Shelly Winters who cried and said she would give back all her awards and fame if only she could have the children she aborted.
I have friends who have said that to me “If only I could go back and have my baby again.” But abortion is forever. Problems are only temporary.
sydney m. i didnt know about shelly winters. thats so sad but what good do material things do when your kids are dead. 2 or 3 abortions later my sister in law and her husband remain childless by her “choice”. im not one bit envious of the fact that they own their home and cars. what will happen if one of them dies or end up sick? a nursing home means kissing all you own over and you wont ever have any kids to come and see you. more and more women are choosing not to parent and i happen to know older couples or single who have not. i see a common thread in all of them~lonliness.
sad part about jennifer o neil was that she wanted that baby. the man did not and she was shattered. im sure all the nice clothes men cars and expensive gifts in modeling are nice but its temporary
But abortion is forever. Problems are only temporary.
Profound comment, Sydney. I told you about the baby brother my parents had aborted. Many years later, my father said “we could have kept that baby.” I know they still think about him. I sure do.
Dorothy Dandridge, Margaret Sullivan, Judy Garland, Gloria Swanson, and other actresses all at some time or other had abortions that they later regretted.
@Heather — why does your sister-in-law keep on getting pregnant if she doesn’t want children?
