"I've slept with a couple of people and made some poor choices and put things in jeopardy with... what I was happy with, and that's my own fault. I've got no one else to blame about that stuff"
About this Quote
The intent is twofold. First, to accept responsibility without litigating the details. Warne sketches the outline of scandal but keeps the specifics just out of reach, a classic containment strategy: acknowledge enough to seem sincere, not enough to feed the headline machine. Second, to redirect the story toward self-accountability. "That's my own fault" is a reset button, a way of telling fans and sponsors: whatever you've heard, the moral math is simple and I'm not outsourcing guilt.
The subtext is about jeopardy, not just sex. Warne names "what I was happy with" as the real stake, hinting at a life he had built (relationship, family stability, public goodwill) and nearly detonated. The line also resists the common celebrity move of blaming fame, temptation, or other people. In sports culture, where infidelity scandals get treated like both sin and spectator sport, this is Warne trying to shift from performer to flawed adult: not asking for absolution, but demanding the right to own the narrative on his terms.
