“I had it on a much smaller level, but even my husband had to just go through everything in front of everybody and make lots of mistakes in front of the entire world,” she said. “There was nothing that he could do that would get by the media.”

She went on: “It always made me feel really sad for him because so much of what was going on was what anybody his age would be doing, except it was on this much bigger scale.”

“There was so much more pressure on him to be, like, this perfect example to people, and I always say to him, ‘I’m so impressed with how normal you are,’ because I don’t even know what that feels like to go through mentally, emotionally, physically,” she said.

Hailey went on: “I know that it did have an effect, a big effect, on him, and I’m just grateful that he’s able to be the mature, stable adult that he is now.”

“After getting married, especially, it really opened me up to this new kind of level of attention," she said. “I think one of the biggest things I struggled with for sure was the comparison aspect of body comparison, looks comparison, behavior comparison.”

She continued: “I think when you’re going through a situation where you just have so many people hounding you with the same thing over and over and over again, it starts to mess with your mind, and then you start to question everything.”
