Tears for Fears singer Roland Orzabal has revealed in his new memoir that he fell in love with another woman before his first wife, Caroline, died following a long battle with alcohol-related illness. The disclosure marks a candid moment for the "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" star, who describes reaching a breaking point after years of watching his wife's health decline.

The admission features in Orzabal's memoir, "Welcome to Your Life," in which he opens up about the strain of Caroline's illness on their marriage and his personal life during that period. Further details of the relationship and the timeline of events were not fully specified in the available extract of the book or article.
