\u201cWhy it fractured, that’s a lot of things,\u201d she explained to Today while discussing the memoir. \u201cI think by the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Will\u2014who is dad to son Trey Smith<\/strong>, 31, with ex Sheree Zampino<\/strong>\u2014echoed the statement at an event promoting her book.<\/p>\n
