00:45To play sports and you can just have fun with, it's good.

00:48See, even if the relationship side doesn't work out, at least you have bros.

00:51You make some bros.

00:52That's the idea.

00:53That's the worst.

01:04Nice.

01:05Looking to get into more sports analysis, breakdowns.

01:07My true love is sports.

01:19It's different.

01:20What about you and your fiancee?

01:22Are you guys sort of...

01:23Believe it or not, we just celebrated two years together.

01:26It has been the biggest blessing to share my life with her the last two years.

01:30Only advice I could say, you know, me and him linked up this week, and I was just giving

01:36him advice on how to get through the ups and downs and challenges with relationships,

01:40and it's not easy in the limelight.

01:42It's really not.

01:43Every day I learn that I have to re-love Hannah.

01:45I love her dearly, but every day it's just a different way that I can just wake up and

01:50re-love her.

01:51It's work.

01:52Yeah, it's work.

01:53It's work.

01:54Bottom line is relationship takes work.

01:55And if somebody doesn't want to work as hard as the other, it's not going to work.

01:58So when's the wedding going to be then?

02:00We don't have an exact date yet.

02:01I'm actually going into a meeting right now, and that's kind of what we're going to talk

02:04about in my transition, so it's exciting.

02:06I'm ready for the marriage, for the baby, for whatever you name, I'm ready for it.

02:11Hell yeah.

02:12Best man right here.

02:13He's been ready.

02:14He's going to be in the wedding for sure.

02:15Yeah.
