I am reminded of one of Ben Affleck’s acceptance speeches. He talked about how marriage is such hard work but there was no one he would rather do it with than Jennifer. People made fun of the speech at the time and predicted the end of his marriage, but there should be no shame in admitting that a relationship is hard and takes continued effort. That doesn’t mean that the relationship is doomed. Although I suppose in Ben and Jennifer’s case it did. And in Lindsey’s case, the struggle did not end successfully either.
I just hope he remains close to his children. He needs that. Sometimes kids take sides. I am glad that Stella is 17 and will be in college soon. They had their dad (when he wasn’t on the road or in the studio) for their whole childhoods.
