During his sentencing hearing, Fogle addressed the court and said being in the spotlight for his entire life made him dependent on alcohol, pornography, and prostitutes.
"For most of my adult life, I've been in the spotlight, trying to be a role model," he said, according to The Indianapolis Star. "I became dependent on alcohol, pornography, and prostitutes."
Fogle then started sobbing and continued, "Not a day will go by when I don't think about what I did" to the victims, according to The Star's report. "I so regret that I let so many of you down."
Noting that his wife would be a single mother, he said, "Members of my family are also victims of my acts."
The judge presiding over his hearing interrupted him at that point and said: "You gave your wife $7 million, so she'll be OK."
Fogle, who was Subway's pitchman for 15 years, had pleaded guilty to one count of possession of child pornography and one count of traveling across state lines to have sex with a minor.
