Nicole Avant Decided Against ‘Victimhood’ After Her Mother’s Home-Invasion Murder: ‘I’m Not Going to Suffer to Be Sane’ | Video

Jacqueline Avant, the wife of the late Motown legend Clarence Avant, died after the Beverly Hills break-in two years ago Friday

Nicole Avant, the daughter of the late Motown music legend Clarence Avant and philanthropist Jacqueline Avant, says after her mother was killed by a home-invasion assailant two years ago she coped by making a reasoned effort not to be overwhelmed by feelings of victimhood.

“I don’t want to sit in darkness, and I don’t want to sit in victimhood,” Avant told Bill Maher on his “Club Random” podcast show. “I can’t. I’m like, you know what I had to decide Bill? I’m not going to suffer to be sane. I’m not suffering for my sanity. That, I’m not doing.”

Jacqueline Avant died at 81 on Dec.
