“I very rarely intervene in what the newspapers write about me or my relationships, but since my loved ones communicate with @jonathanstadlen about it, I think it is worth clarifying what I have said in each interview when asked about our relationship . and whether we are married or not,” he began in the post, which included a photo of the article in question.
“I always try to respond in a thoughtful, respectful and sincere manner, while firmly believing that people in my life who are not in the public eye have a right to privacy. Jonathan and I agree on what we’re happy to say publicly about our relationship.
“Therefore, I am mortified to see that my words and feelings have been negatively manipulated by certain daily media outlets. Luckily for me, @jonathanstadlen is a very understanding partner and although I try to never read the articles, he has been alerted to them.”
