00:00 It's still so fresh in my mind that all I have to do is look at that picture of me in
00:05 handcuffs on that street.
00:07 Just makes me throw up right now just thinking about it.
00:10 Never again.
00:11 That's what John tells People Magazine about his June 2015 arrest in Beverly Hills, which
00:15 he writes about in his new memoir, "If You Would Have Told Me."
00:19 John pleaded no contest to misdemeanor DUI, but tells the magazine that's when he knew
00:23 he had to straighten up.
00:24 Where do we go?
00:25 We stay home.
00:26 We're real homebodies.
00:28 Also in the book, John gets candid about his divorce from actress Rebecca Romijn, which
00:32 he called "shattering."
00:33 The high-profile pair were married from 1998 to 2005 and announced their separation in
00:38 2004.
00:39 Nearly three months later, John admitted the public scrutiny was unbearable.
00:43 You talk about it so much in public because you're so crazy in love, you know?
00:48 And then all of a sudden weird things happen.
00:51 And all of a sudden, it's been really hard for us, the press-wise.
00:54 Today, the actor admits revisiting that time in his life is difficult, saying, "In my mind
00:58 back then, she was the devil and I just hated her."
01:01 But looking back, recognized his own involvement in the split, you start thinking, "Maybe
01:06 I was as much to blame as her."
01:23 That great relationship did come.
01:24 It was actually in 2011 he met future wife, actress Kaitlyn McHugh, while on set of Law
01:29 & Order SVU.
01:31 Years later, the two reconnected and married in 2018, welcoming a son, Billy, soon after.
01:37 The 60-year-old now credits his wife and young son for keeping him on the right track on
01:41 his sobriety journey.
01:42 How has life changed for you since Billy?
01:45 Is it all peaches?
01:46 I mean, it's a ton of diapers.
01:47 A lot of diapers, yeah.
01:48 I never want to leave the house.
01:49 I just love him.
01:49 I mean, it's a ton of diapers, yeah.
01:50 I never want to leave the house.
01:51 I just love him.
01:51 I never want to leave the house.
01:52 I just love him.
