Actress Christine Taylor and her husband, Ben Stiller, are proof that love conquers all and that marriage takes two to work.
In an industry like Hollywood where celebrity marriages rarely last, the two are going strong after decades despite bumps in the road.
In 2017, the celebrity couple announced that they were separating after eighteen years of marriage and two children. However, in February 2022, the couple broke the Internet with news of their decision to continue their marriage. Now, Taylor is talking about how that sweet reconciliation was possible.

During a recent episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show,” the “Party Girl” star discussed how she and her husband revived their strained marriage.
Barrymore had asked Taylor how she and Stiller found their way back to each other after breaking up. Taylor answered briefly, detailing the timeline of her and her man’s relationship.
“You know we got married very quickly after meeting each other,” the 51-year-old said. “We knew each other six months, got married within a year, and then had Ella the following year. “
“The Wedding Singer” actress continued, “Family has always been a priority, but I think Ben and I both started growing in different directions, and when we decided to separate, it wasn’t something we wanted to talk about publicly. It was also not something either of us take lightly.”
The mother of two revealed the process she and her husband had to go through to get it back on track. She said, “We’re both at this impasse, like, let’s figure out what’s best, like what’s best for us in this chapter of our lives.”
He continued, “That’s going back three or four years for each of us to know who we are. I think we have these growth spurts even as adults, and I think we both have to figure that out.”
However, while the couple split, Taylor revealed that they still have a family bond. “And we always remain a family unit,” he stressed. “We continue to do things together; keep watching the show together, birthday party. Everything.”
Further into the discussion, Barrymore asked Taylor what her current relationship with Stiller was like. Taylor happily shares that she and her man have a long history together, and they’ve learned what works for them.
Before the public announcement of Stiller and Taylor’s reconciliation, a source told People Magazine that while the couple split, they were not in another relationship. An insider said, “They are the couple that friends hope will get back together. They are never isolated.”
The source continued, “Ben has just had such a busy career over the years. It keeps them apart a little. They don’t spend much time together. But when they do, it’s always clear that they love each other.”
The insider added, “Even after they decided to split up, they spent time together just the two of them. They are always fun and fun to be with. They never dated anyone else after they broke up.”

She said, “We broke up and got back together, and we’re happy about it. It’s really wonderful for all of us. Unexpected, and one of the things that came out of the epidemic.”
The “Zoolander” star explained that they learned in their relationship to respect and accept each other’s similarities and differences. In his words:
“I think we respect how we’re similar and how we’re different. And I think accepting that you can really appreciate someone more because you’re not trying to make them change for you.
The Hollywood veteran added that what helps them is understanding what works for them, as well as sharing a deep trust in each other.
Remember that in May 2017, the couple announced the sad news of their separation with a heartbreaking joint statement. The message read, “With great love and respect for each other and the 18 years we have spent together as a couple, we have decided to separate. Our priority will continue to raise our children as devoted parents and closest friends.”
