Like I mentioned to you before, there are a lot of people who I think have handled celebrity more adeptly and more adroitly than I have, Jennifer among them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers. As happens in\u00a0relationships, you don&#8217;t always have the same attitude towards these things. And so I thought, Oh, this is interesting because how do you reconcile that? Because exactly what [the interviewer] said is true. I love and support this person. I believe in them. They&#8217;re great. I want people to see that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And I think the thing that I said in that documentary or the piece that they used was where I said,\u00a0<i>You don&#8217;t marry a ship&#8217;s captain and then say, &#8216;Well, I don&#8217;t like going out in the water.&#8217;\u00a0<\/i>You&#8217;ve got to own what you knew going into any relationship. And I think it&#8217;s important to say that wasn\u2019t the cause of some major fracture.
