He Britain’s GQ magazine: "When the papers said all of these things, like I wasn’t a good father, and they painted me in this really bad light, it was like a nightmare."

"I remember lying in bed thinking I wanted to die on the spot. I wasn’t going to jump out a window because with my luck I’d land on someone and we’d both be paralyzed, and then I wouldn’t have any money to leave my daughter because I would get sued."

"But I would go to bed, and I would say, ‘Please don’t let me wake up. I can’t face another day.’"

His daughter is the center of his world. "I don’t hesitate to say that as a father, I feel like I’m in the top one percent. I’m commuting to Los Angeles every other weekend to see my daughter. I just worship Ireland."

"Everybody who knows me knows that when I’m with Ireland, I’m her slave."
