"I’m never getting married. Everything is good."

Enrique Iglesias, when asked about the marriage in a Parade interview, told the outlet:

"I’ve never really thought marriage would make a difference. Maybe it’s because I come from divorced parents, but I don’t think you love someone more because of a piece of paper. And nowadays, it’s not taboo to have kids and not be married. What makes a difference is that you’re a good parent, period."
