Getting divorced was the right decision for me, but it's not the right decision for everyone else.

It's a disservice, really, when we put celebrated people on a pedestal and don't allow them to be human. It's a very lonely experience for the individual. It's not a sustainable way to live.

I grew up very conservatively and traditionally. I wanted to save myself for marriage.

It's so important to just be kind to one another because we aren't walking in that other person's shoes.

I think that happens to a lot of people who find themselves thrust into the spotlight and becoming famous before they recognize what's happening to them. Life becomes a little distorted for them.

And as such, we need to be empathetic and understanding.

For so long I just let people surmise what they would about my life and my choices, and other people have written books and told tales.
