"I’m so grateful that I get to choose to wake up every day and love this woman. But after 11 years of marriage, what has made things so sweet, and what has allowed our relationship to get better and better over time is the fact that I don’t just love her… I also like her. Like, a lot," he wrote on Instagram.

"We chose someone who is on a lifelong search for growth, who never stops being curious, who stays accountable, and who never, ever gives up. We both have these same qualities and while so many things about us are opposite, no matter how far the world tries to pull us apart, each of those things brings us back together like glue," he continued.
