Robin Thicke Opens Up On Marriage Split

Robin Thicke has said that the breakdown of his marriage to Paula Patton was not down to allegations that he had been unfaithful.

Instead, the 37-year-old singer argued that it was he had become "selfish" and "greedy".

Thicke made the comments in an interview with New York's Hot 97 radio station. Opening up about the couple's separation, he admitted: "It's not that simple. It was right [but] sometimes people grow apart. You don't build love in a day and you don't lose it in a day.

"We're apart because we just couldn't be together any more, for a while. There's a 100 different reasons, there isn't just one. There's a long list. I changed, and I got a little too selfish, a little too greedy, a little too full of myself."

He added: "Maybe a year or two off, we'll become our own people without each other and it'll be more stable."

The singer, who revealed he has not seen his ex-wife for four months, has named his new album after his partner, but said: "She hasn't heard [the album, called Paula]. She's only heard a few songs and I don't think she wants to hear it right now. I can't speak for her, but I think space is an important part of any healing process.

"She's the best girl in the world, a great mother, and still a good friend. I want to wish her well and let her know that she's a great person and she deserves to have a good life.

"She was my rock. Everything we have right now, we built together. I'm a man. I messed up and had to lie for a while. Then I stopped lying."

Thicke has tried to win back his childhood sweetheart ever since the split by offering a number of public apologies to her regarding his behaviour. The couple first met in 1991 and started dating two years later. They married in 2005 and have a four-year-old son, Julian, together.

In February 2014, it was confirmed that the couple had decided to separate.
