Waddell clarified that they broke up the day after Thanksgiving and before they “had been in therapy for years”.
“We tried for a long time to make it work,” she explained. “We focus much more on the kids than on ourselves and, in the end, I think that was probably our biggest downfall. The kids got to the top of the pyramid and we never put ourselves at the top.”
