He admitted that during the COVID-19 pandemic, however, it was very difficult as he had to be apart from them more than usual.

"You're more mindful of like, I know who's around me – no one. And I know who's bringing me the corona – no one is.

"But you send your kids out to someone else and they come back to you, and now you're prone to whoever they're with. It's a tricky one for all divorced parents."
