'Knowing when to speak up or shut up': Jon Bon Jovi reveals the secrets to his 27-year marriage with high school sweetheart Dorothea Hurley... and insists their relationship is 'normal' despite his rock star status
Jon Bon Jovi, 54, is one of few rock greats still touring and flourishing 30-years on in his career.But his long-lasting career isn't the only thing some people consider a rarity in his life, with his marriage to high school sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley, still going strong, despite his rock 'n' roll lifestyle and huge successes.Speaking to Sunday Night in an interview which aired Sunday, the musician revealed the secret to his marital bliss, 27-years on.
Describing the secret to their success as a couple, the singer listed: 'It's, you know, mutual respect. It starts with that, right?... and listening.'
'And knowing when to speak up or shut up,' he continued.
While many in Hollywood say a long-lasting marriage is hard to come by, the same can be said for musicians in 'the rock world', but Bon Jovi says he hates the term, clarifying that marriage is hard in any work, in any world
'Well, what the f*** does that mean? It doesn't mean anything. It's in a tough world. It's not easy,' he told Sunday Night of marriage.
In a recent interview with People magazine, the singer added on the topic: 'Somehow I became the poster boy for a long married rock star... But I’ll accept the mantle because I’m so happy'.
Bon Jovi gushed to the publication about his wife, describing her as the 'glue' that keeps their family together.
