Actor Bijou Phillips says she knew her half-sister Mackenzie Phillips had consensual sex with their father, Mamas and the Papas leader John Phillips.

In a statement read by Oprah Winfrey, Bijou says she was 13 when Mackenzie told her about the sexual relationship. Bijou, 29, says the news was confusing and scary. She says it was "heartbreaking" that her family would leave her with her father.

On The Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday, Mackenzie said their father "had changed his ways as much as he was able to" and she felt Bijou Phillips was safe.

Mackenzie says she did go get her sister when she "felt like she wasn't being watched properly."
