Michael said that he may have not been able to handle the scrutiny of such a public relationship as he told THR: 'When I was younger, I don’t know if I could have handled the onslaught of opinions and being picked apart, and also being conscious of what the other person’s going to go through.
'It takes a special person to deal with that.'
He went on to say that his relationship with the daughter of television personality Steve Harvey felt 'real enough' to showcase to the world.
