Haim and Corey Feldman both admitted they had been molested by different men when they were just 14 on a recent episode of their U.S. reality TV show Two Coreys.

And Haim - who claims he has been sober for 10 months - says the abuse led him to a battle with alcohol and has accused Feldman of failing to support him.

He says, "(Feldman) said to me, 'I'll always have your back.' But he knew there was a rape issue going on with me for about two years, and what did he do about it? Nothing."

But Feldman says Haim is playing the "blame game" and refuses to speak to him until he sobers up.

He tells People.com, "As a friend and somebody that cares deeply about the guy, I'm not going to watch him destroy himself.

"I think that he needs to demonise somebody. As a 14-year-old, how could I be responsible for actions that happened between him and another person?"
