I'm not so sure the ring means anything. I've known many men who have continued to wear their wedding ring even if it was clear there was no chance of reconciliation.

Being a public figure, if there was something going on that he didn't want to talk about regarding Marta, it would only make sense to keep the ring on so people don't ask questions... like the women who notice those sorts of things. :)

What I think is even more telling is the fact there was zero mention of Marta in the show. He would mention her at least once in nearly all the previous shows. Today when he was talking about all the people who supported him, Marta did not come up. He said nothing like "all your good wishes really helped Marta to cope." He said nothing related to growing with his family. He did not even pass along a "thank you" from Marta.

Based on all this, if he was talking to me guy to guy, I would assume that Marta became a part of his past in this process. I may be wrong, but when a married man can go that long talking about himself and not mention his wife when he has a history of mentioning her, something is wrong.
