I get what you mean, he really does seem like a nice, well rounded soul and has always struck me as a great Dad, it really does baffle me how he got involved with the likes of KP in the first place, let alone marry her, they are so unsuited. As a parent myself I doubt he regrets it because of Junior and Princess, but as
@Ecosse said above, he must look back and think WTF. I think he and his PR have been fairly clever in remarketing him, but there was good stuff there to work with...you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear and all that!
