Singer and actor Donnie Wahlberg has finally revealed the secret to maintaining a successful and loving relationship with his wife, Jenny McCarthy.
In an exclusive interview with In Touch Weekly, published on January 16, 2025, Wahlberg offered some rare insights into his decade-long marriage with Jenny.
When asked how the couple has managed to keep their bond thriving, Donnie credited their success to sacrifice and prioritizing each other above all else. The Blue Bloods star candidly shared,
“Always put the relationship first. Despite every other thing we do, we put each other first, and by doing that, it gives us room to do all these other things. We refer to it as holding each other’s kite strings while the other one flies”.
Donnie further emphasized the importance of mutual support and trust in their relationship, adding,
“We’re very supportive of each other because neither one of us is worried that we’re not giving the relationship everything we have”.
