Elizabeth’s book goes into detail on the troubles between her dad and mother, the late actress Samantha Lewes, who died in 2002 after a battle with cancer.
He praised her for being candid about a dark time in her life and noted he was not shocked by her strength.
‘I’m not surprised that my daughter had the wherewithal as well as the curiosity… in order to examine this thing that I think she was incredibly honest about,’ the Toy Story star told Access Hollywood.
He went on to say that his daughter has been ‘very open about what the process is’ in regards to the book.
The memoir was released in April and examines Elizabeth’s life growing up with two Hollywood icons.
