“I didn’t understand it until I was about nine years old. When my mom died as a result of suicide, there was an amazing support structure from my siblings and mothers who stepped up. So I respect the tradition,” he said.
The 38-year-old, when asked if he would consider taking on another wife, stated that as long as everyone is happy, he would consider.
