On why their relationship works: "We just get each other. We're both laid-back people. It's never been a job to be in this relationship."
On Nicole's past: "She made some mistakes, but look at where we're from: I'm in a rock and roll band. Nicole is who she is."
On how many times he asked Nicole to marry him: "People don't know this, but I asked her to marry me 10 times before she actually said yes. I was asking every other Tuesday."
On how he asked for her hand in marriage: "I hinted around at it and she's not one to beg anyone for anything, so every time I'd kind of hint she was always so nonchalant like she was cool. She doesn't want any handouts, so I was always so confused. I was waiting for her to say, 'When are you going to ask?' and that's not the kind of woman she is. She keeps you on your toes for sure."
On when Joel finally proprosed to Nicole: "It was a Tuesday. I just woke up one morning and said, 'You know, we have two kids already,' and I was just like, 'What am I doing? I'm a fool. Why haven't I asked her to marry me?' and did it that night."
