Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox have been together for 13 years, and they’re clear-eyed when it comes to what makes a marriage work.
“I don’t know what the secret is. Just stick it out. Like fighting and making up, believing in each other,” Green told People magazine at the Women’s Choice Awards on Wednesday. “I’ve dated people before and you kind of get to that point where you go, ‘You know what, I don’t feel the same way,’ and I’ve never reached that with her.”
“I mean we fight, we disagree on things,” he added. “But I don’t want to go anywhere and she doesn’t, you know? So we stick it out.”
The pair, who have three children together, married in 2010 and split in 2015, when Fox filed for divorce citing “irreconcilable differences.” The two reconciled last year while Fox was pregnantwith their third child.
While Fox has not spoken publicly about her relationship recently, in a 2014 Cosmo interview she echoed a similar sentiment.
“You have to be with someone who loves you at your absolute worst, because you can’t be an actress every moment of the day forever,” she said. “Brian and I have done everything you can do to ruin a relationship and we still love each other. I don’t want to be boastful and say that we would never divorce, but I can’t imagine a scenario we couldn’t work through.”
