He was faith-based. He was ambitious,” she said. “He had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so he understood the madness.

He paid attention to me.” Writing about their divorce, she said, “Honestly, I think Nick and I could have worked it out between the two of us, but egos and emotions got inflamed (which can translate into many billable lawyer hours, and ultimately it did).

It was tough. We both wanted to make sure everything was cool for our family. We will always be family, and we make it work.”
