On the show "House MD" does Cuddy know about House's history of abuse?

Question

I know in the episode "One Day, One Room" House confesses to the rape victim that his dad used to abuse him, but I can't remember does Cuddy know about this?

Answer 1

It is never confirmed in any episode of House that Cuddy knows his history of abuse. For the most part, she knows that the two have a broken relationship but it's implied that the two know each other pretty well.

Answer 2

Cuddy knows to some extent what House has been through with his father but really she doesn't know the whole story. She does know that there is abuse there by how much House resents him and all of that.

Answer 3

That was a GREAT episode. Can you imagine being a rape victim, coming to the hospital, and ending up with the doctor who has the WORST bedside manner in the history of medicine? LOL

Answer 4

I think Cuddy can really predict House, and most likely, she knows. Wilson probably told her, because we all know he can't keep a secret.

Answer 5

One way or another, she knows.

She knows he had an awful relationship with his father and if you consider she's supposed to be a Dr, she'd definitely know that he has a history of abuse, most likely the by his father.
