“Forty years ago, I made a huge mistake and I feel deeply sorry for it,” he told the media. “I have been working on it since then. I decided to solve these problems publicly because two months ago various news organizations published recordings made by then-wife Faye Grant in a confidential marriage therapy course in January 2012. This session was recorded without the therapist or my knowledge or my consent or my consent.
“In the recording, I describe events that happened 20, 32 and 40 years ago,” Collins continued. “The publication of the recording led to assumptions and allusions about what I did, which went far beyond what actually happened. Still, I hope people know the truth.”
“I did have the opportunity to do this with one of the women after 15 years. I apologize and she is very kind. But in the immediate situation where I learned during treatment that I was directly experiencing these problems, I could actually make them worse by opening old wounds, and I didn’t get close to the other two women, one of them in the 50s and now the other in her 30s.”
