I agree with CadoDoan. I didn't notice anything wrong with his response, because of the phrasing Belle used and what happen afterwards.

Belle: I'm sorry. I'm sure it must not have been easy growing up without your father.

David: It was. Of course, it wasn't easy when he was there either.

So, David is saying "It was [not easy]" if you compare it to what Belle said.
