MLB legend Reggie Jackson expresses regret for being unfaithful to his partners during MLB career

Reggie Jackson, the New York Yankees and Oakland Athletics star, admitted that he repeatedly cheated on his partners.

The admission took place on March 22 at Howard Stern's show on SiriusXM. Jackson married Jennie Campos in 1968 but the two separated in 1973. He has also dated Sheila Johnson, Jenilee Harrison, Edy Williams and Carole Mallory.

During the show, Howard asked Jackson indirectly if he would be marrying his new beau. After hearing the response of the right fielder who said that marriage was hard for him, Howard asked if opening his heart was hard for the player. Jackson responded:

“It wasn’t hard for me to open my heart, but it was hard for me to be loyal. As a man, I cheated a lot.”

Jackson continued:

“I won’t blame it on any excuse. I just cheated. I saw a pretty girl, and I tried to sleep with her. I had access, and I took advantage of it, and I missed a couple of wonderful ladies in my life, and it was my fault. I didn’t get it.”

Listen to the interview starting from the 0:44 mark.

Reggie Jackson was brutally honest in the interview and did not shy away from the truths that might darken his image.

"No, I am not anti-marriage. I probably would get married."
