“And the outcome of that was I didn’t say anything sexual. I’ll have to repeat this again. I didn’t say anything sexual.
‘Despite what the newspapers suggest, no one accused me of flirting or hitting on anyone six years ago.
“And the reason I say this is because of my wife Anna. I have always been faithful to my wife Anna and have never flirted or had sex with anyone in twelve years [since] I met her and fell in love with her.
“And it’s important that, so people don’t misunderstand that, I’m faithful to my wife.”
