And even to the point where I remember BeyoncΓ© went to the Oscars one year, and I did this fabulous gown with, like, origami. It was black and gold. And everybody was going crazy on the red carpet.

First of all, I hope that I made it very clear in the book that my whole life with Matthew was not filled with heartache, that there were some amazing moments also. I also had just lost my mom at 26. He knew my mom. I knew his mom. And what he was was so kind to my family. My family is everything to me. So imagine you losing your mom at 26. Your brothers and sisters are older.

They got their own families, and you feel so alone. And like, that's my best friend, you know? And in a lot of ways, he had an issue, but he was so kind to me. And it sounds crazy, because that's not kind of cheat on somebody. I think he had, you know, he had an illness, but we were a team and, you know, we had kids and we built a life together. We built businesses together.

You know, those nuns telling me I wasn't good enough. So I was like, I'm lucky to have somebody that's successful and smart and better than me. Did you ever, in some ways, you think that?
