LeAnn Rimes' E! Interview Brings Star to Tears Over Affair

LeAnn Rimes E InterviewE!

It's been almost four years since LeAnn Rimes was caught having an extramarital affair with actor Eddie Cibrian, and the singer is still having to defend herself on what seems like a daily basis. It's a subject that continues to bring the 30-year-old star to tears, as seen Sunday on an E! network interview with Giuliana Rancic.

"I never in my heart want to hurt anyone. But I don't think anything can separate anything that's super-connected ... (We) might have had so many wonderful things with each other's (previous) spouses, but something along the way broke that. You can't break what's broken already," LeAnn said, referring to her first marriage to professional chef Dean Sheremet and Eddie's to model Brandi Glanville. She then paused for several seconds to collect herself, choking back tears before adding, "No one will ever understand how much thought and hurt, even towards each other, (was) put into our decision.

"All I wish is that everybody we hurt can be happy," she continued. "I wish I handled it differently because I wish I could have been better for me, for Brandi, for Dean, for Eddie, for everyone else."

Eddie joined his now wife of almost two years for a portion of the interview, coming to her defense over the incessant public criticism of their relationship.

"My heart goes out to (LeAnn) every single time she's getting bashed for something," he said. "It's unfair for her and it's unfair for us. [The affair] wasn't frivolous, you know."

Tabloid drama and social media bullying are partly to blame for LeAnn voluntarily checking herself in to a rehabilitation clinic earlier this year. "When you look around and you go, 'I'm crying uncontrollably; no one can help me,' that's when I knew I had to seek help ... I was incredibly depressed and not quite sure of who I was."

LeAnn found herself once again on the defensive when speculation started swirling about the cause for her rehab stay, which was rumored to be fueled by everything from an eating disorder to drug addition. But the singer only admits to emotional issues, denouncing all of the ugly rumors. "People are so quick to judge and make decisions for themselves about situations they know absolutely nothing about," she insists.

The Grammy-winning songstress will release her new album, Spitfire, on April 30. Watch her perform a song from the album that was inspired by the demise of her first marriage here.

She certainly seems to have a lot of persoal problems that go public and after awhile people will associate her mostly with those, not talent or glamour.

No one can steal a husband or a wife. They leave because they want to.

See the problem is...if she didn't take EVERY opportunity she can to stick it to the ex-wife, she wouldn't be half as hated as she is.
Save your tears *****...no one's buying it!

Sounds like a cop out to me lady. Bottom line, you took another woman's husband, and no matter the issues in their marriage, you should have waited until they were settled one way or the other. Now don't cry because the public's perception of you is not so good. As for your husband, I personally think he's a jerk, don't be surprised when he serves YOU the same way.

Sorry, no sympathies for either this female *or* Eddie. You don't cheat - *EVER*. If you're that unhappy, leave the relationship first. What they did was incredibly selfish/wrong, no matter how they try and justify it. Her problem is the guilty conscience of knowing what they did was wrong, and having to live with it every day. Man or woman - if they'll cheat with you, they'll have no qualms about cheating *on* you, and I'm sure that's crossed her mind more than once. She's always going to wonder if he's being faithful, I would think (and vice-versa). If you cheat, be man/woman enough to face the consequences that come with it....

Well, hopefully Bill will never do to Guliana, nor visa versa, what these two did to their spouses. But until then....Deal with LeAnn. You did the deed, deal with the blow back.
