opened up about how hard the divorce was for him, claiming that it was a "scary" and "sad" time in his life that made him "pull everything into focus."

The "X-Men" star confessed that, until that moment, most of the things in his life came easy to him. After claiming that it probably had to do with the "certain unearned privileges" that being a White man had, he said:
"My life hasn't been filled with sorrow and deep struggle. When the divorce happened, it was the first time I felt I lost my equilibrium."
According to James, he and his ex-wife were simply too young when they got together, so their divorce was just a matter of them growing apart from each other.
Separating from Lisa was only part of the problem as he also had to separate from the "bonds of home and family" and his children, something that was especially hard for him because being a father is one of the things he is most proud of.
