While it is personal for his family, it's one thing if you're Joe Bagadonuts and nobody cares who you are, but if you're on the world's center stage, and something like this happens it's not quite easily to deal with it "as a family" while the whole world watches.
Regarding national security, those foreign governments who seek to compromise us look for weaknesses in people whether it be debt, gambling, drinking or a wandering eye. People caught up in such acts are easy to blackmail. With all of the general's experience he should know exactly this. For him to compromise himself, his nation and his family for a roll in the hay is mind-boggling.
