Armstrong Reveals the Reason He Split with Crow
Lance Armstrong reveals that the discussion of marriage and children led to his split with Sheryl Crow in February 2006, FOXNews reports.
The relationship for the couple, who were engaged a year earlier, became rocky just two weeks shy of Crow's 44th birthday, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Armstrong, 37, said, he wanted a family, but not right then. "I had just gotten out of a marriage. I'd just had kids (Luke, Grace and Bella). Yet we're up against her biological clock -- that pressure is what cracked it."
The bicyclist has a book coming out in July titled Lance, in which he talks about these details. Armstrong said amid counseling, they decided to break off their engagement because "really there's no way to counsel that situation."
"Because if somebody wants a child -- man, that's the greatest gift you can give to a woman -- so who are you to stand there and say I don't want one. So we were at different points in our lives. We were not compatible on that issue."
However, the once twosome have now moved on. Crow finally has a child of her own; an adopted son named Wyatt Steven Crow, and Lance gets to be a father for the fourth time. His girlfriend, Anna Hansen, is to give birth in June.
