Per The New York TimesParker and Broderick crossed paths in November 1991, courtesy of Parker’s older brothers, Pippin and Toby.

Silver, baby. 25 years and counting. X, your wife.”

Although the celebrity couple has managed to keep their marriage out of the public eye, they took to the big screen together last year, uniting their talents to portray a married couple in the Broadway play “Plaza Suite.” According to Broderick, the experience of playing a role that invited public scrutiny about their relationship proved to be quite unnerving. He shared that it was “a terrifying thing.”

In a rare joint interview with The Hollywood ReporterParker shed light on their approach to maintaining a successful marriage amid the demands of fame. Reflecting on their long-standing philosophy, she remarked, “I’ve always said one of the reasons we’ve had success is because we don’t talk about our marriage.”

She added, “I’m not flattering myself that anyone’s discussing my marriage, but we’re certainly not going to add to it by saying, ‘Well, this is why it works.’ Next thing you know, there’ll be a very public divorce. So we try to respect each other.”


Although the couple has been married since 1997, Parker disclosed that their role in “Plaza Suite” marked a milestone in their togetherness. She candidly revealed that before “Plaza Suite,” she and her husband had never spent such an extensive amount of time in each other’s presence. “


Even when we were dating,” she said. “But it’s a very different kind of time. It’s not like we’re spending more time together talking. We’re spending time together working in an alternate universe. We’re not ourselves.”
