Despite the rough end to her relationship with Fred, Elisabeth expressed her gratitude for that chapter of her life. “At the same time, it turned out for the best. I’m glad that I’m not there,” she added. “I’m glad that it didn’t happen when I was 50. I’m glad I didn’t have kids. And I got that out of the way. Hopefully. Like, that’s probably not going to happen again.” The same outlet also reported that Fred labeled himself a “terrible husband” during an appearance on Howard Stern.
