“We were friends. We talked a lot and we continue to do it now. We had a very strong emotional connection, we understood each other very well. This feeling continues, and I believe that in time it will become even stronger,” Kristaps reveals to the publication.

“When we met, we were both married, we both have kids, and it’s all very complicated. To build something on such a complex foundation, you have to be real,” emphasizes the former athlete.

He continues: “Of course I have a sense of guilt … But it’s not a sense of guilt that I left the family, because I was clearly aware that I myself had to be happy for the people around me to be happy. And for that reason – it will probably sound selfish – I chose to leave the family. It is very difficult to torture each other and stay in a relationship just because of the children. “
