Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance say their 25-Year Marriage is Like a Rock Band

Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance reflected on their long-running marriage, in an interview, where love's definitely got to do with it's success.

Speaking with People, Vance likened his marriage to Angela Bassett with a Rock Band, "Talking, communicating and allowing each other to have your own space and then come back together, It's like a rock band, The Temptations or The Stones or The Eagles."

"Initially it was about, 'they made it,' and then 'what about my individual glory?' And 'I don't want to get so caught up in the band and talks about going our separate ways.' And then going, 'You know what? We're better together and stronger together,'" he continued.

The Emmy Award winner added, "To see those groups still doing it 30, 40, 50 years later and making even more money is just, it's a good feeling, the same thing."

Talking about her husband's constant support, Angela, who recently won a Golden Globe said, "It's great to have someone there in your corner supporting you. It makes the success all the more sweeter. All the more sweeter."

The couple, who share fraternal twins Bronwyn Golden Vance and Slater Josiah Vance, 16, celebrated their silver wedding anniversary with 250 guests in October 2022.
