“I am in no way another Matt Baier,” Andrew told RadarOnline.com exclusively. “I don't want any monetary gain or material possessions that she has. I just want to make her smile and experience things together that we both wanted to experience with our exes but couldn't.”

“She's read the statements made by my exes, but still hasn't spoken to me about it,” he revealed. “No one is perfect, but we can always do better. I am willing to share every experience I've had, good and bad, because I am not the only one with a past.”
