Former NBA player Gilbert Arenas was asked how he thinks it's OK for the public to see the kind of relationship the two have been showing. Here's how he answered:
"What 48-year old man would date a 40-year old female? She's a single woman. Who's gonna be attracted to her at this point in her life? Younger men.
"She needs the attention. She needs someone who's going to look at her like she is the prize trophy. The only person that's gonna do that is the younger generation. If this doesn't work, it'll be another younger man."
