“I think we’re both reluctant to bury 20 years of marriage. We’re human, we make mistakes and that’s the human condition. You have to put pride aside and you don’t want to prove you’re right or find out who’s to blame. Because It can be both of you and there’s a moment when you have to accept it,” the actor said, highlighting their “wonderful year.”

We had a wonderful daughter who we both love and this is the end result of our relationship, the most beautiful. Things we did together.”
