Here's what Chris had to say:

On understanding the extent of what happened: "...with the situation...it's not something you could take lightly and not something you could push under the rug...it's a really serious situation and it's something that I regret and I wish I didn't do it."

On being questioned about his sincerity in previous interviews: "...I just feel like at the end of the day I'm human...I can only tell you how I personally feel...I can't make everybody love me, but I can just try... and I can honestly say that I am sorry."
