The singer said he and his now-ex-wife spoke to their children in general terms, "just explaining to them that things will be different, you know, without going into too much detail." Just as quickly, the singer added, "But a lot of things won't change."
He insisted that the couple going their separate ways "won't change the amount of time" that they spend with their little ones. "In actual fact, it may even improve the amount of time that we spend with them ... quality time" the 'Soul 2' creator claimed optimistically.
Still, a source told Us Weekly that the celeb couple's gorgeous kids "are upset" by the news, or what they can understand of it. Allegedly, Heidi and Seal's busy schedules put a major stress on their co-parenting efforts, and thus the marriage. "It's hard to make a marriage work when one parent is with the kids most of the time. They always took turns and it led to separate lives."
But above all, the parents have vowed to always put their kids first as they embark on their separate paths. "The main thing is to make sure that they feel that they're loved, make sure that they understand that their parents love each other, make sure that they understand if there are any changes, it is absolutely nothing to do with them," Seal explained.
