Despite his previous teasing regarding the matter, he emphasized that he was serious about the separation.
According to him: “I’m separated right now and people thought it was a joke but it wasn’t. And some people were like, ‘Do you want to promote a show?’ And I was like, you definitely do not know my design. I do not bring my personal matters on a public platform and put my personal things out there”
“But it was something that I needed to do and for reasons best known to me. And I did that. And yeah, we’re cool, everything is fine.
