“We’ve both gone through our trials and tribulations, and we’ve learned from those so that we can be happy in our bliss,” McCarthy added.

“I start taping ‘Masked Singer’ in L.A. again soon,” she said. “And he is doing ‘Blue Bloods’ and is also starting his summer tour with the New Kids on the Block in June, but we always make time for each other no matter what, even if it’s just flying in to see each other for a day.”

During an interview with Fox News Digital in January, Wahlberg expressed similar thoughts while sharing his secrets to a happy marriage.
“First of all, we’re very, very much in love. Two things that really have helped us the most is we put our relationship first in our lives despite the fact that we’re both very busy,” he said. “We really put our relationship first in the decisions we make in our careers. We consult each other.”
Wahlberg also explained that the two have established a lasting relationship by learning from their past mistakes. The actor told Fox News Digital that since he and McCarthy both had past marriages, they “both desperately wanted it to work.”

“So, we had to put in the work, and that’s the other secret,” Wahlberg said. “People say relationships shouldn’t be work, but if you care about something, you work hard at it. So many times people don’t want to put that work into their relationship, and they think of work in a relationship as problems, but it’s actually problem prevention and problem-solving if you put it in the work.”

Wahlberg explained that it’s very “healthy” for his children and McCarthy’s son to see the pair putting in the work and effort to maintain a successful relationship.
To Wahlberg, incorporating date nights into his routine with McCarthy is considered putting in the work.
“Date nights are work, you know? I don’t mean it’s difficult to have a date night, but you have to make the choice to give each other that time,” Wahlberg said. “It’s very easy to get caught up in the kids and the jobs and the pets and the bills and all this stuff, and you just stop caring about the relationship.”
Wahlberg pointed out that couples tend to have a lot of fun when they are dating and pursuing each other, and he doesn’t think that needs to stop once two people decide to get married.
“Do the little things that made you fall in love with each other even more after you’re married,” he said. “I think that’s what we try to do. We had a lot of fun when we were dating. Let’s continue to make the effort to have that fun now.”
