However, like everyone else, they also tried to get their relationship out of the rut and tried mending the relationship. Gina shared about the matter through a statement that said,
“We went to therapy 12 times. I tried to leave five times and I just didn’t have the strength but the fifth time I held on to that. It became necessary for me to find my path.”
The two are parents to two kids, daughters Shelbi and Spenser. Spenser is Gina's daughter from her previous marriage.
Now their lives have moved onto separate paths, but Gina shared that they are still good friends with each other.
“Business is business. Let’s be clear about that! Life happens, honey. What are you going to do? Cry in a bowl of milk? At the end of the day, Pat and I are real people. Life happens. I had dinner with Pat on Friday. We’re still good friends, but it just happened. You don’t stop living because bad things happen. You keep going!"
Glad to know that there is no malicious feeling between them.
