"Even if it never happened and it's all a lie, he's gonna be judged for that for the rest of his life, and she's gonna have to deal with it, and people shaking their head and going, 'Why are you with him?' And it's, it's just unfair."
"But at the end of the day, it's what we sign up for," Glanville continued. "And Kristen is a strong woman, and she will hold that family together no matter what."
