Kelsey Grammer has opened up about his conflicting feelings over his ex-girlfriendâs decision to have an abortion during their relationship.
The Frasier star, 70, recalled the difficult milestone in his newly published memoir, Karen: A Brother Remembers, which recounts the tragic 1975 rape and murder of his younger sister and the impact it had on his life and family.
In 1974, just months before his sisterâs death, Grammerâs then-girlfriend became pregnant. She did not want to keep the baby and decided to abort it. Although Grammer insisted he was âwillingâ to keep the baby, he admitted he âdid not plead with her to save his life.â
Instead, Grammer wrote in an excerpt obtained by People, he âvolunteered to have my sonâs body vacuumed out of his motherâs.â
âI regret it. Thatâs all I meant to say.â
âI know that many people do not have a problem with abortion, and though I have supported it in the past, the abortion of my son eats away at my soul,â Grammer continued.
Kelsey Grammer released his debut memoir 'Karen: A Brother Remembers,' which details the rape and murder of his younger sister (Getty Images )âI supported the idea that a woman has the right to do what she wants with her own body. I still do. But itâs hard for me,â he wrote. âStill is.â
The Cheers alum further criticized the doctor who performed the abortion, saying: âThe doctor, or so-called doctors, who have executed generations of children in this manner â I have no idea how they call themselves doctors. Something about the âfirst, do no harmâ thing. But I offer no controversy.â
Grammer is currently married to his fourth wife, British TV producer Kayte Walsh, with whom he shares three of his seven children: Faith, 11; Gabriel, 10; and James, 8. He shares his oldest daughter, Spencer, 41, with his first wife, actor Doreen Alerman; his second daughter, Greer, 33, with his then-girlfriend, hair stylist Barrie Buckner; and his daughter, Mason, 23, and son, Jude, 20, with his third wife, former Real Housewife Camille Donatacci Grammer.
In a recent interview with The Times ahead of the bookâs release, Grammer was asked if his sisterâs murder shaped his conservative political views.

âWhen I was a little boy I just thought, you know, thereâs a right and a wrong,â he said. âThis grey area thing doesnât have a lot of value⦠I get you can have feelings about certain things, and I want to respect everybodyâs feelings. But, you know, you learn in AA that feelings are not facts. And thatâs where I think we get confused a lot these days.â
Grammer, who is one of Hollywoodâs few outspoken conservatives, reiterated his support of President Donald Trump, saying: âItâs great to have somebody who actually means what they say.â
Karen: A Brother Remembers is out now.
