Back in April, during an interview with host Bruce Bozzi on the iHeartPodcast Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi, Rob opened up about the secret behind their long-standing marriage.
He emphasized that the secret isn’t exclusive to Hollywood but applies universally.
“Sheryl was and is my best friend,” he shared, adding: “So if you marry for anything other than the fact that she is your best friend, you’re at a disadvantage from the jump, because that will sustain when the other stuff ebbs and flows.”

“People say marriage takes work. I’m not sure if it takes work, but what it does take is forgiveness, and being really cognizant of what hill you’re willing to die on,” he stated.
He further underlined the significance of keeping the physical spark alive in a marriage or any successful long-term relationship.

In a 2014 interview with Haute Living, Rob talked about how his life changed after meeting Sheryl.
“I had met my now wife, Sheryl, and was attempting my first try at monogamy — which was not really in my nature at the time — and I wasn’t able to do it,” he said.
“It made me examine how I was living my life. That led me to getting sober, which led me to changing my life and giving me everything I now have.”
