>> we don't know what goes on. >> that's what i'm saying. is it just for the prepress. >> something that struck me about her relationship with her husband. i remember being envious is a strong word, but thinking, wow, they are very, very lucky. i remember how it seemed how deep it was, how open it was, and how it seemed to be steamy, very kind of public steamy relationship. she kept saying, you know, we always keep our relationship, you know, keep the home fires burning, and sometimes after 11 years, you think god, if they can do that, why aren't we doing that? >> it's hard to keep home fires burning if you're not home. it's very hard. he's on the road. that's a grueling schedule. she's an actress. almost never shoot movies and things where you live. you're almost always on location. it takes a very, very extraordinary relationship to last through that sort of stuff. >> but back to the question, do people who seem to have all that chemistry and they talk about it and you peek in, is it real and why don't i have that. we saw that with heidi klum. >> i don't know why you don't have it, i pray for you every day. >> mock tail, i don't even want it. >> we were so surprised when they broke up. >> heidi klum and seal. they got married every year. >> renewed their vows. >> every time you saw them, they were kissing. >> beautiful babies. >> ashton kutcher and demi moore seemed to be publicly affectionate. when you saw them, you peeked in and thought if i could just have that. >> not just that that keeps two people together. it helps. i think that's a big part of our culture problem. >> what's that? >> the media tells us that it's all about sex. sex is a wonderful part of a good relationship but it's one component. you could have the world's greatest sex life and have a lousy marriage. >> but you always hope you can still have the steam after years and years and years and years. what's the truth? >> you can't. >> that's the end of that. >> you can't. you can have something that's even better and deeper. if that's what you want is just steamy and steamy, first of all, your bodies are going to tell you differently. you age and men lose their testosterone by the time they are age 50, they've lost half of it. women go through hormonal changes. >> cranky. >> setting yourself up for -- why don't you find a different kind of contentment and have those moments when you still rekindle what you have. >> you need the rekindling moments, too. >> you're not the same person you were when you were 18 years old. >> you can still have romance and you can still have hot sex. >> yes, you can. yes, you can. not as often or as long.

great blessings on the couple? >> they were fine. >> that's the last thing l.a. needs, more people stopping traffic. >> they did one on broadway. cinderella is on broadway, a couple got up on stage, a man proposed to her -- police officer proposed to his girlfriend up on stage. >> why that one doesn't bother me, it doesn't impact other people who are not interested in you getting -- you know? >> i do wonder about public proposals. it seems like there are certain things you want to say. people like it on the jumbotron or jay leno. >> we live in a society that really doesn't -- nothing's sacred anymore. everybody tells everybody about everything. >> all the details. >> i'm reading a book right now, i'm not going to talk about the book. i can't believe one person wrote that about another person in their life. i think, what does that tell you about the person that wrote the book?
