Ted Danson’s wife Mary Steenburgen reveals questionable phrase he says after having sex

Ted Danson’s wife Mary Steenburgen reveals questionable phrase he says after having sex

Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen are set to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary this October

Ted Danson’s wife Mary Steenburgen has revealed the hilariously questionable phrase he says after having sex.

Now, Danson and Steenburgen first tied the knot back in 1995 and have since enjoyed three decades of marriage.

When the 71-year-old Book Club: The Next Chapter star first met Ted, 77, she initially thought he was a pretty 'slick' guy due to his extensive work in the 'biz.

However, it didn't take long for her to realise this was far from the case after finally doing the deed.

Last Friday (3 January), Steenburgen opened up about her and Danson's love life on the Golden Gala red carpet and made the bombshell confession.

"I admired him so much as an actor, but I didn't personally know him," she recalled to People. "And I had this stupid idea that he was, like, maybe kind of a slick guy."

"How wrong I was," she joked before revealing exactly what phrase Danson would blurt out after 'making love'.

She shared: "Slick guys don't say, 'gosh-a-rooni', after making love. I'd like to apologise to my granddaughters."

It's clear the whole 'gosh-a-rooni' thing hasn't been a setback in their relationship as Steenburgen took the opportunity to also gush about her hubby's 'kindness'.

"There is a reason that Ted is treasured by everyone who works with him," the actress continued. "Ted sets the tone.

"He's just so loving and takes such joy in acting that all of us who are hard at work away from our families for long hours get to work on a set that is dictated by his kindness."

While Danson and Steenburgen have no children together, they have four children from previous relationships.

Steenburgen added: "And as his wife watching the respect and love that crews have for Ted has always made me very proud of him.

"I also fell in love with the sort of father that he is and with his beloved daughters... Ted loves them with all his heart and yet had space in there to love my Lilly and Charlie so perfectly as well.

"It's pretty thrilling to go through life with Ted Danson."

So, other than keeping it fun in the sack, what's the secret to a 30-year marriage?

Well, according to the couple, it's having one-on-one time together at '4:30 in the morning'.

"The most fun is the early mornings [...] coffee in bed, playing Wordle, Connections, and Spelling Bee, talking and laughing and sharing," Danson previously told People. "To both of us, it's like heaven on Earth."

"Even if she's working in a different time zone, we will wake up in time to be able to play our games and have coffee over the phone," he added.

Coffee in in bed, Wordle and a 'gosh-a-rooni' or two thrown in for good measure - noted.
