“Why would I want to avoid growing old with the person I love most in the world? Am I missing something, or are you just vapid, insecure, and moronically short-sighted?” another asked the hater.
“They are obviously devoted to one another. She is the mother of his children,” read another comment. “He watched his first wife d*e of cancer and deserves all the happiness and love in the world.”
