Eddie Cibrian has voiced his commitment to being a dad amid a mini-storm over the outing of his relationship with country singer LeAnn Rimes.
“From the outset I have made a conscious decision to try and keep this matter private and not discuss it in the press. While my wife and I are dissolving our marriage, we will work together to parent our two children.”
He says of sons Mason, 6, and Jake, 2: “I love my boys very much. I want only the best for them and am committed to being a devoted father.”
Cibrian of CSI:Miami is seeking a divorce from former model Brandi Glanville. Rimes has split with her husband Dean Sheremet.
Glanville appeared to be moving on when she said Rimes was welcome to Cibrian. She also said she sensed the attraction between the pair when they were filming Northern Lights.
Cibrian adds: “I will continue to be respectful and sensitive to this issue by not doing interviews about this ongoing private matter. I wish everyone would do the same.”
