Ted Danson didn’t 'grow up emotionally' until his 40s, but he 'wouldn’t choose a do-over'

"Cheers" star Ted Danson opened up about his emotional immaturity in his past just before he married his wife of nearly 30 years, Mary Steenburgen.

"… I won't be too specific, but I didn't really grow up emotionally until I was in my 40s, and I was a bit of a liar in my relationship. I'll leave it at that," Danson said. "And I started to work on myself very seriously around that time. I went to clinics and a psychologist and a mentor. I worked very hard to not be that person who hid his emotions and left out the back door."

Danson confessed that the situation had been hard on his parents, and it had apparently played out in public.
