'You know sometimes the public and press gets it wrong,' he told People magazine. 'This is one of those times.
'2010 was actually the best year of my life because I fell in love with my best friend. An amazing woman who stood behind me when the world turned their backs.
'I have never met anyone so kind and loving and committed to making the world a better place every day.
'My love for her is beyond description. So honoured that she said 'yes.' Growing old with her is going to be a f****** blast!'
