^ I don't associate any sense of right or wrong with their being public ... that has to do with risk-taking (in the beginning) and with a sense of euphoria now. They are over the moon with all those fabulous hormones
I agree that there's no point in judging anyone, but at the same time, compassion (in this case for the wife and kids) never went amiss. I was an adult when my parents divorced, and still it was quite difficult. (Not least because it was dragged out for so long.) My brother was on the cusp of adolescence & I saw an overnight change in him (and not for the better). It is never easy, and it can't be made easier with publicity I'm sure.
Hopefully next time each of us is in the throes of new love, we'll take a moment to consider whether there's anyone we should be feeling a little compassion for ...
