Actually, I am far more concerned with him being so stupid as to have an affair with this woman (with a history of taking men) than I am about some rant said in public. A shame how this highly talented man has made a mess of his private life.
I do agree he’s become (or maybe always was) an idiot. I suspect years of substance abuse. His wife probably held him together as long as she could. And he is very talented, combined with rugged good looks, a winning combo. But this business of recording private moments and then using them to ruin people is just crazy. We all say things, that if recorded would look very bad. It says as much about the recorder as about the recorded.
