“Because this woman personified love, she forgave me more times than I deserved. She would relentlessly not give up on me as a human being. Even when she said, ‘maybe we must just cut our losses’, she said it with love. Any other person would have probably walked away long ago but because she was love, she didn’t give up.

“The only thing I owe her that was meant to be delivered last week when we recorded the podcast, was an apology in public for heartache I had caused her. That was the point of that podcast — a public apology for any heartbreak, any heartache, any embarrassment, people’s eyes that I caused you.

“I apologised to you and the children, but it was not complete until it was done in public.
