During a sit-down withOff Camera with Sam Jones, Shepard got very honest about his early days with Bell, wondering if her generous spirit was the right fit for him. After being around her for a while, he realized — obviously — it was.
“I just slowly through time watched what fruit she bore out of the way she moved through life. I looked at the results of how she lived,” he said. “And they’re pretty undeniable. So here’s me who thinks she lets people take advantage of her and live for free off of her and maybe she pays this manager too much or whatever the cynical, protective part of my brain was saying. I could also acknowledge: She’s bringing in a lot more money than you. She’s getting ahead. For all these people that are making a fool of her, she’s doing a lot better than you are.
