Speaking to Revolt in early December, she said: ‘People think I’m being catty for saying this: it’s like, there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband.
‘And guess when it happened? When those kids were little.
‘For 10 years, while we’re trying to build our careers and worrying about school and who was doing what and what, I was like, ‘Argh, this isn’t even’.’
‘And guess what? Marriage isn’t 50/50, ever. Ever. There are times I’m 70, he’s 30. There are times he’s 60, 40. But guess what? Ten years.
‘We’ve been married 30. I would take 10 bad years over 30 — it’s just how you look at it. People give up — ‘Five years; I can’t take it’.’
