Taking to Instagram on Thursday (May 18), Jimmie shared his message.
“I want to publicly apologize to my wife Alexis for humiliating her with my affair,” he wrote. “I’m embarrassed that my choices have brought shame on her. That’s something that she did not deserve at all.”
He also apologized to his children “for being a poor example of a man and a father.”
Jimmie and Alexis had two children together, and he has another from a previous relationship.
“I’m working on becoming a better person that my kids can be proud of. My goal is to be better than the generation before me,” he continued.
Shifting focus, he addressed how the music industry affected him.
“This business takes so much from you. It’s full of temptations that can cripple you and ruin everything you’ve built. I’m ashamed that I wasn’t strong enough to withstand them,” he said. “I will no longer be a victim of my weaknesses.”
Jimmie is also facing professional troubles amid the controversies surrounding him.
