’’The woman I married eight years ago, to whom I am still married, and with whom I hope to continue living all my life.
‘’I have already apologised to her personally here in prison, but I must do it publicly, because the story is public, the offence is public and she deserves a public apology.
‘’These have been, are being, and will be very hard days for her. I thank her for everything she is doing for me. Her role is not easy. I love her and during this time in prison, I have thought a lot about our marriage.
‘’I am certain that I was not wrong to choose Joana as my wife. Although perhaps she did make a mistake with me.’
