Courtney B. Vance Shares the Secret to 21-Year Marriage to Angela Bassett

Teamwork! Courtney B. Vance exclusively shared with Us Weekly the secret to his 21-year-long marriage to wife Angela Bassett at the Avengers: Endgame premiere on Monday, April 22 — and says it’s all about pitching in to help each other.

Celebrity Couples Who Prove Love Isn't Dead

“It’s, ‘Yes, dear. How can I help? What do you need me to do?’” he tells Us of the twosome’s longstanding union.

More than that, however, Vance, 59, says a successful marriage is all about prioritizing what’s most important. “Our focus is on our children and what we need to do as a family,” he explains. “Careers and things follow that.”

The Black Panther star, for instance, turned down a role in Broadway’s A Trip To Bountiful in 2013 in order to honor prior commitments she made to Vance and their children. “I just couldn’t make it work … and then be there for my husband, who is doing Broadway in The Lucky Guy with Tom Hanks,” she told WENN at the time. “We have twins with the nanny … so I had to let that go.”

The pair, who share twins Bronwyn and Slater, both 13, also make sure to spend quality time together. “We used to go see two and three movies a night,” the actor recalls. “Just fun things.”

One of those fun things includes Vance throwing his wife — and 300 guests — a party for her 60th birthday on August 16, which also included a special rendition of “Happy Birthday” by Troy Andrews.

Bassett, who said her “I dos” to the Emmy winner in October 1997, told Net-a-Porter in August that her husband is not keen to divorce anytime soon. “He always said divorce is not an option,” the American Horror Story alum explained. “I’ve always told him: ‘Do what you want to do’ – meaning pursue his dreams – ‘because I don’t want you to get to the end and blame anything on me.’”

Aly Raisman: A Day in My Life

Aly Raisman ’s life has looked quite different since she officially hung up her leotard and retired from gymnastics in 2020. But even though she’s not spending as much time at the gym, the former gymnast, 26, still makes it a point to live a healthy lifestyle. On a typical day in her life, Raisman will do a Pilates session to maintain her svelte physique. After years of intense training, the three-time Olympic gold medalist found that the method — which involves low-impact flexibility and muscular strength and endurance movements — not only benefited her body, but her mind too. “When I have a good workout, I feel more calm and I feel more connected to my body,” she told Women’s Health in January. “That is a very different answer that I would have given you a couple of years ago. If I were training, I would have probably said a good workout to me is when I push myself as much as I can … I think I pushed myself enough for most of my life. So, now I just want to leave the gym feelin...
