Eric Roberts, in his new memoir *Runaway Train: Or the Story of My Life So Far*, publicly apologizes to his sister Julia Roberts for previously claiming credit for her successful acting career. Roberts admits his past statements were 'asinine' and acknowledges the harm his drug addiction caused to his relationships with Julia and other family members. The actor had often stated that without him, neither Julia nor his daughter Emma Roberts would have become celebrities. Eric's memoir details his early career successes, his struggles with addiction, and the subsequent estrangement from his family, including a custody battle over Emma. He hopes this apology will help mend his relationship with Julia and other estranged family members.
