He said in a statement: “I love Regine with all of my heart. We have been together for twenty years, she is my partner in music and in life, my soulmate and I am lucky and grateful to have her by my side. But at times, it has been difficult to balance being the father, husband, and bandmate that I want to be. Today I want to clear the air about my life, poor judgment, and mistakes I have made.
The singer went on to detail the struggles in his personal life but insisted he wasn’t making excuses. The Ready to Start singer has the support of his wife, and she is “certain” he hasn’t done anything his accusers had not agreed to.
