It’s hard to believe that Jon Bon Jovi and his wife, Teresa, are getting ready to celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary. It’s a long marriage that is one that defies the odds, but it also is one that we can look up to in other ways as well.
When a couple has been married for so long, people often ask them the obvious question of how they make it work. That is when Jon Bon Jovi steps up to the plate and says something unexpected.
The 62-year-old singer said that he has not always been the perfect partner and that may have been a revelation for some. He said that the reason why he and his wife have been together for so long is because she is accepting and patient.
He didn’t give any specifics about why Doretha may have had a reason to be tolerant of him, but he also admitted that being honest was a key to their relationship.
In speaking to a news outlet, he said that never lying about having been a saint is a very important part of maintaining a long relationship, especially as a rock singer.
He also added that he feels it is important to be honest about both his mistakes and his behavior.
Jon and Teresa were married in 1989 in a Graceland Chapel in Las Vegas. They have had a few things to work on over the years, but it’s always been enjoyable to see how well they did as a couple.
We hope that they are together and happy for many more years.
