She tells GQ: 'I just got my mom out the mental institution... Literally all my money goes into my grandmother and my mother.
'I got a two-bedroom apartment and moved my sister in so she could be monitoring [our mom]. I got nurses for my mom. My grandma bumped her head and had to have her brain drained, and she's dealing with Alzheimer's. I've got meal services coming to the house for her and for my mom.'
