I don't get why he's so defensive unless someone struck a nerve. Who cares what STRANGERS think? As long as your family and friends support you, then why respond to random strangers?
people aren't stupid. Everyone knows when you leave your wife and then are seen with a new woman right after what was up. Own it and move on.
This just confirmed for most people that he is an asshole bc getting up crying about a woman having cancer and then 2 years later gushing about your new younger chick is kinda asshole-ish
