Although he anticipated that people would perceive the match as odd given the circumstances, Matt said he is comfortable with it. He went on to say he’s dating a new lady and wants everyone, including Lhotse, Cathy, and Tony, to be happy.

Mr. Goodman said that Hawk had informed him that he was dating his estranged wife and mother of his two children, which he accepted. Matt, on the other hand, alleged that even before Hawk’s confession to him, he had sensed something similar. The skateboarder and the actor have been friends for more than 30 years. They were so close that Goodman was a groomsman at all three Hawks weddings.
