Cam Newton is reflecting on the consequences of his past decisions.

On this week’s episode of Special Forces, the recruits received video messages from their loved ones, but the retired NFL star, 35, didn’t hear from any family members. Instead, a member of his production company sent him a message.

“My dark side in my life was like I was in a long-term relationship and I had a child outside my relationship,” Newton shared during the episode. “We had just moved into a house and everything was kind of perfect from the outside in, you know?”

He admitted that the situation has strained his bond with his oldest daughter. “And my relationship with my oldest daughter has suffered,” he said. “All she kept asking was, ‘Yo, why?’”
