Well, remember that “sexy” Chris that women write letters to now was somewhat shapeless when he married Shanann. (She was the beauty, though).
Here is the YouTube video of Chris singing. And moving. I don’t know the song but am I right that he has no ear for music? Do people see his moves as slightly klutzy?
My point is - he was not that attractive. He was shy. And his day was regimented by Shanann.
And then, he lost weight, made a tattoo, he suddenly became “hot”. And then SW left with the kids for six weeks.
