LeAnn Rimes Reveals How Eddie Cibrian Marriage Has ‘Endured’ Despite Struggles
LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian‘s relationship didn’t begin in the most conventional way (they were both married to other people when they got together), but more than 14 years later, they’re still going strong.
The couple celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary in April, and Rimes is opening up about the secret to making the romance last in a new interview.
“If I look back at our relationship, I’m really in awe of the things that we’ve endured and how we’ve grown together,” Rimes told Us Weekly. “The place we’re in now is just so comfortable and calm and quiet. We really find our quiet together. That’s really important.”
According to the 9-1-1: Nashville star, the marriage works because she and Cibrian “love doing simple things together” and are “very normal.” She explained, “The normalcy is what allowed us to have this relationship in this crazy business. Our relationship is better than it’s ever been. I really do have very major moments of gratitude.”
Plus, she noted that she and her husband are both always “changing” and evolving, which helps them constantly learn new things about each other. “It’s really about choosing to connect and making an effort,” she revealed.
As she’s dealt with some health issues over the years and is now going through perimenopause, Rimes said it’s been helpful to have her husband’s sense of humor. “Just having that levity is super helpful because I’m not one to joke about it,” she admitted. “He pulls me back out of it into this lighter realm.”
Right now, she and Cibrian don’t have any plans to work together professionally again, but she said they “love” being on projects together. “We’ve definitely talked about writing some stuff for us to do together in the future,” she teased. “We are one of those couples that can actually work together fairly easily and still go home and not hate each other.”
