Rosie O’Donnell has cut off ties with adopted daughter Chelsea and won’t let her have any contact with her younger siblings until she agrees to a year-long therapy program thousands of miles from home, the teen revealed in an exclusive interview with Daily Mail Online.

The 18-year-old previously opened up to Daily Mail Online about how she felt like an outsider to her family after being sent away from her Nyack, New York home to a therapeutic boarding school in Utah for three years when she turned 13.

Now the teen says that she does not want to repeat the experience with the new program, which is based in Texas, and is pleading for an opportunity to address her problems nearer to home – and be allowed to see her siblings, Blake, 15, Vivienne, 12, and two-year-old Dakota.

Chelsea said she takes medication for anxiety and depression and admits she needs a therapist to help her deal with emotional problems. But she is desperate for another solution rather than being sent away.

She revealed that the stress she has been under has contributed to a recent spate of hospital visits. She has felt physically sick, had abdominal pain and episodes of dizziness, at one point while she was driving.

She said: ‘A big reason I've been so stressed lately is because I've been in the hospital a lot.’

Chelsea O'Donnell has been hospitalized twice in recent weeks after a stressful dust up with her mother. Rosie and Chelsea's other mother, Kelli Carpenter, want to send Rosie away to Texas for a year of therapy but Chelsea wants to stay closer to home. Rosie is threatening to cut all ties with Chelsea

Rosie is adamant that Chelsea go to Texas for a year. She sent this text to her daughter: ‘u have reached new lows...go to texas – this is the last offer of any kind of help. ever'

Chelsea was devastated when she received these texts from Rosie. There is no compromise for Rosie, says her daughter

‘Rosie and my other mom Kelli [Carpenter, Rosie’s ex-wife] want me to go to Texas for an independent living, therapy program. For the first 60 days it’s very restricted, you can’t do anything and it’s just strictly therapy. After that you move into an independent living program where you get your own apartment and you can have your own car.

‘People could come visit me but I don’t know if I’d be able to go home.

‘They sent me away from when I was 13 until I was 17. This is my choice and I don’t feel like I need it at this point. I’ve been in so much therapy in the last couple of years that I know everything they’re going to teach me.

‘I’m just trying to figure out other aspects of my life, like getting a job and finishing school. I can get a therapist on the side.’

Although her moms first brought up the program with Chelsea in the summer she said that a week ago Rosie issued an ultimatum through text messages which the teen shared with Daily Mail Online.

Rosie texted: ‘go to texas – this is the last offer of any kind of help. ever.’

Chelsea replied: ‘Then I don’t want ur help.’

Rosie then wrote: ‘u never have – go find another stranger to take care of u – till they kick u out – or u run away.

‘enjoy the rest of ur life. Goodbye.’

Chelsea is unsure what will happen at Christmas – but thinks she might spend it with her new boyfriend Nicholas Alliegro , a 30-year-old plumber who lives in Massapequa

Chelsea said she was now living with a friend’s family in Massapequa, New York, after breaking up with her boyfriend in Barnegat Township, New Jersey, over a month ago.

The teen had been living with her ex, Steven Sheerer, 26, at his parents’ home since Rosie allegedly kicked her out in August, two weeks before her 18th birthday.

Chelsea said the relationship had become unhealthy and she was no longer speaking to Steve.

She told Daily Mail Online: ‘I just wasn’t happy. I had no way to get around so I was basically stuck in the house, all day, every day by myself.

‘I was really nauseous all the time, getting sick and just not feeling good at all.

I was really nauseous all the time, getting sick and just not feeling good at all.

‘Steve and I weren’t getting along. His family situation wasn’t a healthy environment for me. I was miserable and so depressed. I was offered the chance to leave, and I took the offer to come down here.

‘I just didn’t want to be with Steve anymore.’

Chelsea met Sheerer on Tinder when she was 17 years old. Sheerer was on probation for convictions of possessing controlled dangerous substances and child endangerment. He was arrested in 2013 with heroin and marijuana while in a car with a woman and her two children aged one and three.

In August, after Chelsea was found staying at Sheerer’s home, he was charged with third-degree endangering a child and third-degree distribution of obscenity to a minor. The latter was the result of a nude photo Sheerer sent Chelsea when she was 17.

Chelsea petitioned a judge in New Jersey to drop charges that had been brought against him because of their relationship. The charges were dropped along with a no-contact order after a judge approved her request on September 4.

In the past month, Chelsea had around 12 tattoos done by an artist in Massapequa. Perhaps the most striking is a red and black design of symbolic objects on her right forearm, a reminder of her siblings. She said: ‘I got the roses for my little sister because her middle name is Rose and it makes me think of her'

‘I have some birds, then the words “honesty is key” and “patience”, as reminders. I have a knife going through a hand with roses and then a rose with a dream-catcher on my side with the word “breathe"'

Chelsea is now living with the family of an old school friend after the boy’s mother offered her a place to stay.

‘They have been really helpful and they’re a big part of my life right now. I’m happy there,’ she said.

But her new living situation has caused conflict with both of her mothers.

‘Rosie and Kelli are not happy that I’m staying with this family,’ Chelsea said. ‘Rosie has been really mean to the lady I’m living with over text messages, like texts she’s sent me in the past. It gets to the point where the lady is crying because my mom is being so mean.’

Chelsea has not seen the text messages that Rosie had sent but said she witnessed the woman’s reaction.

The teen said: ‘They were hurtful messages and she [Rosie] told the lady that she was a stranger and a crazy Rosie fan. Rosie was like, “You must just love me and want to get to me.”’

‘But excuse me, nobody likes Rosie anymore. She’s not that special.’

Kelli and Rosie divorced around the time Chelsea was 12. The couple started dating in 1999 when Chelsea was a baby and married in San Francisco in 2004 when gay marriage was legalized there. The pair share custody of their four children.

In 2012, Rosie, 53, married Michelle Rounds, 44, and adopted a baby girl, Dakota, in January 2013. The couple separated a year ago and reached a divorce settlement last October. They agreed to share joint custody of their toddler, Dakota.

Chelsea would not say where she spent Thanksgiving but was too upset about not being with her family to elaborate.

‘I was by myself, I was alone,’ she said.

She is unsure what will happen at Christmas – but thinks she might spend it with her new boyfriend Nicholas Alliegro , a 30-year-old plumber who lives in Massapequa.

Chelsea and Nick met at a Dunkin Donuts store in the Long Island town last month.

She said: ‘We have everything in common. He makes me feel really good and he brings out the best in me. He’s very supportive and sweet, he makes me laugh, and does small things to make me smile. He goes out of his way to do nice things for me.’

He is helping her find an apartment and Chelsea hopes to spend the holidays with him.

‘I don’t have plans for Christmas, I’ll probably be with him [Nick]. I won’t be able to be with my family so I’ll be down here on Long Island for Christmas,’ Chelsea said.

She claims she won’t be allowed to return to Rosie’s Nyack estate for Christmas with her family because she is refusing to agree to her moms’ ultimatum of the year-long therapy program in Texas.

Chelsea last saw Rosie a few Sundays ago when she went to introduce Nick to the TV star at her home.

‘I was seeing a friend in the area and I texted her. I went over there to talk to her,’ Chelsea said.

‘I went to the house and I saw my little sister Dakota. She was sick but when she woke up, it was really nice seeing her.’

Chelsea said that the meeting went well and that Rosie was pleasant to her new boyfriend.

‘She was nosy and asked him a bunch of questions about his family,’ she said.

But Chelsea and Nick were then shocked to discover that on December 3, Rosie published a poem to her blog, which appears to reflect on her meeting with Chelsea – and includes personal details about Nick’s family.

Chelsea said: ‘It’s about me. I read out to Nick and he said “she wrote about my family?” We were both like, what the hell, why are you posting personal information like that? It’s none of your business.’

‘It went alright but now Rosie has texted me saying that going to the program was my last chance for her to help me, otherwise she was done. We’re not talking anymore.’

She passed her driving test about six weeks ago and bought a second-hand car with her savings. She got another pet – an English bulldog called Angel – to join her beloved dog, Bear. Yet her financial situation remains precarious, she says

Chelsea said that Child Protective Services had visited Rosie’s home about a month ago after she revealed that the TV star liked to smoke weed.

In an interview with Daily Mail Online in October, she revealed details of O’Donnell’s life away from the public sphere, including how she likes to lock herself away in an ‘arts and crafts house’ to paint, blast Madonna on the stereo and smoke weed.

Chelsea said: ‘I mean, she smokes weed – not around us – but the whole house smells like it.’

According to Rosie’s eldest daughter, CPS interviewed her younger siblings.

Rosie accused me of calling Child Protective Services and said it was all my fault.

Chelsea said: ‘Rosie accused me of calling Child Protective Services and said that it was all my fault. I said to her, “I just mentioned you smoked weed, I didn’t say you did anything to hurt my siblings. You do it by yourself, I can smell it in the house.”’

Chelsea also spoke of her anguish at being unable to speak to her younger siblings.

‘My parents have said that I’m not allowed to see Vivvy and Blake. But I went out to dinner with my older brother, Parker, two or three weeks ago. We talked and hung out for a while.

‘Parker was telling me to make up with Rosie. He didn’t talk about his feelings but he said “it would be so much easier if you guys just made up.”’

But the teen doesn’t feel it’s that simple.

She said: ‘I have a life here and I have things that I’m not willing to leave to go to a program for a year, really far away.

‘They [Rosie and Kelli] are saying right now that I have to go to Texas, in order to have my siblings in my life. I have a lot to think about I guess.

‘Unless I go to this program they are like, “We’re done. We want you not to contact anyone else in our family.” They’ve cut me out completely unless I text them and say that I’m going to do this. It’s really upsetting.

‘I asked if there was any alternative options – like if I could go to therapy every day for a year or go to a day program close to home. I’m just trying to find different options. But they are just sticking with Texas.

‘I want my siblings in my life. So I guess I have to figure out a way to do that.’

In the past month, Chelsea had around 12 tattoos done by an artist in Massapequa. Perhaps the most striking is a red and black design of symbolic objects on her right forearm, a reminder of her siblings.

She said: ‘I got the roses for my little sister because her middle name is Rose and it makes me think of her. The camera is for my older brother because he loves photography and he’s really a great photographer. There’s a picture coming out of the camera of a ghost for my little brother because I call him Blakey Boo. And I haven’t thought of one for my baby sister yet but when I do, I’m going to add that on to it.’

She also described the rest of her collection: ‘I have some birds, then the words “honesty is key” and “patience”, as reminders.

‘My friend and I got matching “pinkie promise” tattoos. I have a knife going through a hand with roses and then a rose with a dream-catcher on my side with the word “breathe”. And I have panda, because I love pandas, I’m obsessed.

‘There are butterflies going into the roses [on the right arm]. The tattoo artist is going to make it all go together in a sleeve.’

Chelsea said she has been interested in tattoos from a young age and paid for them with her savings.

‘Since I was little, I always wanted tattoos. I talked to my parents about getting tattoos and they said “when you’re 18”. So I turned 18 and went and got a whole bunch.

‘I probably got them all within two weeks. I kept going back because I wanted to start a sleeve.

‘I want to go for that Kat Von D look, that’s my goal. I dye my hair a lot, now it’s purple. It’s easy because my hair’s blonde.’

Chelsea says that her other mom, Kelli Carpenter, agrees with Rosie that she should go to Texas for a year

Chelsea said she is focused on getting her high school diploma and interviewing for jobs.

She passed her driving test about six weeks ago and bought a second-hand car with her savings. She got another pet – an English bulldog called Angel – to join her beloved dog, Bear. Yet her financial situation remains precarious, she says.

‘My parents haven’t been helping me financially since Rosie kicked me out in August,’ Chelsea said.

‘I finally got the insurance card from Rosie which has been helping with my hospital bills and stuff. My friend’s family have been helping me out, trying to steer me in the right direction.

‘I’m trying to get a job right now and trying to find a way to get back into school so I can get my diploma. If I can’t do that then I’ll just work for the next year and then try to get my GED.

‘I need to figure it out with my transcripts, what I need to do to finish school but it might just be easier to go to a local school and have it figured out there.’

In the summer, Chelsea was considering a move to Wisconsin to live with her biological mother, Deanna Micolley. The pair were reunited last November after Chelsea reached out to her birth mom.

The teen spent a week in August with Deanna, her husband and three children in the small town of Niagara but despite becoming close with her extended family, she believes that it would not be a healthy situation for her.

Chelsea said: ‘Deanna wants me to move back to Wisconsin and keeps pushing me to do that.

‘Things with her aren’t good and she doesn’t respect me. The way she talks to me and the things she says are just inappropriate. She’s just not someone I want to associate myself with.

‘Deanna’s brother and his wife just had a baby. They wanted me to spend the holidays down there but I wasn’t able to go. But they did offer.

Chelsea claims she won’t be allowed to return to Rosie’s Nyack estate for Christmas with her family because she is refusing to agree to her moms’ ultimatum of the year-long therapy program

‘It was nice to meet everyone and to still have that as part of my life. I don’t know if I want to build a relationship with her [Deanna] but I definitely want to keep in contact with the rest of the family.’

Chelsea said that although she is still struggling with many of her emotional issues, she is trying to get her life on track.

She said: ‘There’s some parts of my life that I’m happy with right now and some that I’m very upset with.

‘Physically, I’ve been sick and I’ve been in the ER four times in the past week.

‘I got pretty upset when Rosie texted me on Sunday. She was accusing me of doing drugs, saying that’s why I was in the hospital because I took too many of my medication and that I was selling drugs. These things aren’t true.

‘I was really struggling emotionally, and I still am, but it’s getting better.’
