He told the site, "The lawyers wanted to know what details I included about LeAnn. I just don't get it. She already killed my happiness the first time around. [It's like], 'Move on already, LeAnn. I've moved on!'"

He added, "I worked very hard on this book and I'm proud of it. I'm on people's radar because of my past with her. I can't erase my past; I referred to it and was very respectful. I'm not the one who cheated."

So far Rimes herself hasn't made any public comments about the book.

"Eat Your Heart Out, " a gluten-free, vegan and paleo cookbook, is available on bookshelves now.
