“How about that? When I met Meg I was here as far as career thing and she was here and then it just went like that,” Quaid replied, indicating with his hands that Ryan’s level of fame rose well above his while together.

“I tried to be a big person and tell myself that didn’t bother me, but people are human,” the star continued. “She was ascending as I went into rehab and Meg is really such a great, sweet person and really talented and deserved all her success.”But I don’t regret anything about my marriage to Meg, and we got Jack Quaid out of it who is really going on to maybe eclipse both of us,” he added.

Meg and Quaid’s son has continued to land major acting roles in recent years, including becoming a series regular on “The Boys” and having a supporting role in the hit film “Oppenheimer.”

This isn’t the first time Quaid has reflected on Ryan’s rise to prominence during their marriage. He previously admitted that, at times, he felt somewhat overshadowed by the “Sleepless in Seattle” alum.

“When we met I was the big deal,” Quaid recalled during a 2018 appearance on “Megyn Kelly Today.” “We’d go out on the streets of New York and it would be like, ‘Meg! Meg!’ And I have to admit it, I actually did feel like I disappeared. I didn’t think I was that small, but I was. It was a growth opportunity — I learned from that.”
