Ice-T and Coco Austin have decided to share details about what keeps their relationship lively and fun. The couple, who have been married since 2002, still find ways to keep their connection fresh, even after more than two decades together. Their openness about maintaining romance and intimacy has surprised and delighted many of their fans.
Coco, who is now 45, attended Heidi Klum's 23rd Annual Halloween Party in style. While dressed in an eye-catching outfit that seemed inspired by Harley Quinn, she spoke candidly on the red carpet about how they make their relationship work behind closed doors.
She emphasized the importance of effort in keeping their bond strong. "You have to keep it healthy," she told E! News, adding that consistency is key. "I would say good and healthy is three times a week." Coco believes that maintaining an active and passionate relationship is part of what has kept their marriage thriving for so long.
With a playful smile, she also shared, "I think that's good after 23 years. I think you have to keep it up." This insight gave a glimpse into the couple’s lighthearted approach to their relationship, showing that they don’t take themselves too seriously and that humor plays a role in their dynamic.
Referring to Ice-T’s costume for the event, she joked, "We usually wear a mask like these," Her comment added a touch of fun to the conversation and showed the couple’s playful side.
Ice-T, who is now 66 and known for his long-standing role on Law & Order: SVU, attended the party dressed as a killer clown, proving that he is as bold as ever. Beyond their private life, the couple finds joy in spending quality time together through activities like going out for meals and dressing up for each other. They make an effort to prioritize time as a couple, which helps them maintain their bond.
Reflecting on their relationship, Ice-T noted, "When you first get with somebody, you want to have sex, right?" He added, "If that ever ends, it's a wrap. When that feeling goes away, forget about it." His words underscored the importance of keeping the spark alive and reminded others that nurturing a relationship takes continuous effort.
Ice-T and Coco are not the only celebrity couple who have opened up about their personal lives to share what keeps them strong. Goldie Hawn, who has been with her longtime partner Kurt Russell for over 40 years, also shared her thoughts on what makes a relationship last. During a recent charity event, she offered some straightforward advice that many could relate to.
The iconic actress stressed the need for maintaining closeness and connection in a relationship, and her tips resonated with many attendees. Goldie’s candidness showed that even after decades, it’s important to keep finding ways to connect and grow as a couple.
Speaking plainly, Goldie shared: "You have to have good sex." She went on to say, "Sex is something that connects you and creates more belonging."
Her words emphasized that emotional and physical connection play a huge role in keeping love alive.
She further explained, "People who have healthy sexual relationships usually last a lot longer."
The 78-year-old actress took a moment to explain that while the act of intimacy itself is important, it is the 'warmth and the intimacy' that truly matter in the long run. She pointed out that other essential aspects contribute to a relationship’s longevity, such as mutual respect, shared experiences, and taking time to appreciate one another.
Goldie’s advice served as a reminder that maintaining a long and healthy relationship involves more than one single element. It requires attention to the small things that make a relationship feel special. While the focus on physical intimacy is significant, it is the overall bond that keeps a partnership strong throughout the years.
