We were in a relationship for eight years, and we maybe saw each other, total, for a year.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It was a mutual relationship.
After a number of years dating, we decided we were good partners.
I may not have seen my girlfriend for two or three months, but then we can spend two or three months together solidly. It's swings and roundabouts.
I've had a couple of long relationships. And I've had a couple of shorter relationships.
We are still so close, David and I. We were at a party the other day at my mum's house and I was sitting on his lap. We're very affectionate. And I looked at him and thought after being married for 11 years! We were the only couple who were even near each other at that party. We're soul mates.
We have lasted this long close together, so we must have something going for each other.
The fact is that we like each other very much, and we of course see each other on stage all the time, but this means more time to spend together, and that's great. We couldn't be happier.
We've been together 32 years and married for 27.
Here we spent so much time together - eight months of our lives almost - and it was so great because we all got so close and that really made us not afraid to improve with each other.
You date somebody, and you have this obviously intense experience where you share a life together in whatever way that is for how many years.
