He said: 'Most marriages go through rocky patches and ups and downs and luckily we've come out the other side of those and it's just made us stronger.'
To which his wife responded: 'We quite like each other still as well, which helps. We still laugh at each other and we still get annoyed with each other... he's alright!'
She shared: 'Who really knows what the key to a long marriage is other than hard work and patience... on both sides, this is not just one-sided.
'And I suppose understanding, and communication and trying to understand the other person's point of view which is something we've always tried to do.'
