Stephanie McMahon Discusses Being Bullied as a Child

WWE Chief Brand Officer and Monday Night Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon was a guest on Lilian Garcia's Chasing Glory Podcast and talked about what it was like dealing with bullies when she was growing up:

“I was bullied for being Vince McMahon’s daughter, you know. People either loved me just because I was Vince McMahon’s daughter, or they hated me just because I was Vince McMahon’s daughter. It used to bother me a lot that people would treat me a certain way without knowing who I was, you know. I always felt like, if you got to know me and you don’t like me, that’s fine, but at least get to know me, you know? I talked to my dad a lot about that when I was a kid, and he said, ‘Steph, look. It’s a fact of life. Not everybody’s going to like you, but as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror, and look yourself in the eyes and know that you’re a good person, that’s all that matters.’… that lesson my dad taught me was something I’ll never forget and that I try to pass to my kids… they’re going to have to deal with something I never had to, which is social media.”
