My WH and I were watching a tv show last night. And on the show there was a married man who was kissed by another woman (she was trying to convince him to sleep with her). The married man stopped the woman from kissing him and said, "Im sorry I cant do this, I love my wife".
My WH grabbed my hand and said to me, "I wish I would have said that". And to which I replied, "I wish you would have said that too".
He then hugs me and says to me, "I am SO sorry...I love you".
And after he put is head on my shoulder and was holding me tight.
My WH has not been the model, remorseful WH. He has given me complete transparency, he still get defensive and still tries to blame shift occasionally, but this moment he seemed remorseful.
It made me happy and sad.

Well I hope this can be the start of a new chance for the two of you to move forward together and get through this mess.

I'm glad he was able to give you this small bit of peace. Even though the sadness stays at least he was willing to be with you in acknowledging and trying to repair it.

I think that I know the show that you saw, and my FWH didn't say a word. Just reached out for my hand and squeezed it.
I'm so glad that you two had a good moment! 
Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.
