“I just can’t let it go,” he later said. “I don’t know why it’s such a struggle. It’s curling my toes. I need some grief counseling or something. I don’t know what’s going on here with my attachment. I can’t let go.”

“I want to apologize for being so angry,” he told her. “I just said, ‘Christine what do you want?’ And you said, ‘I just want to be free.’ And I’m sorry I was so angry. I’m sitting here going I’ve had to do a lot of introspection. I need to get to a place where I can rejoice about your happiness and your freedom.”

Christine smiled and responded, “Thank you and that is like the sweetest thing that you have ever said.”

Later, she told cameras she appreciated Kody’s effort. “I just want to thank him for trying to support me. That’s the sweetest thing that he has said to me in years.”
