He added: “I’m very grateful and respectful of her. Our marriage didn’t work, and that’s difficult. Both of us really believe that it’s important for kids to see their parents respect one another and get along, whether they’re together or not. When you have children with somebody you’re connected to them forever. And I’m very lucky she is the mother of my children.”
