"Everything was mutual. It was all consensual," he said in the interview.
"If I have a camera in front of your face and theres a flash, do you know that I'm taking a photo of you? That's as simple as it is."
Within the interview, he apologized to Cecilia Cheung who criticized Chen for not apologizing to her earlier. "I wasnt allowed to talk to her in the initial because of the police request and they were investigating me, which already had troubled me a lot... I really do feel sorry. I really am sorry to her."
Further along, Chen described the misery and the pain he had to endure over the past year.
"I was afraid to go anywhere. I was travelling around when I was still in Hong Kong in trunks of taxis, literally, just to get to places," he told CNN.
"I had to be in the trunk for 15 minutes. I didnt even know if I had enough oxygen to be honest with you."
"Even when I had left Asia and I had went to Canada and America, it took me three months to really get out of the shell that I had put myself in. I mean, I was in darkness for five days," he added.
"I had my drapes closed and I didnt even want to go anywhere."
