Grant Credits Cooking With Marriage Success

British actor RICHARD E. GRANT is convinced his culinary skills have kept his marriage alive for 23 years - because he shares his passion for cooking with his wife.

The Jack & Sarah star has been married to voice coach Joan Washington since 1986, and they have a daughter, Olivia, together.

And Grant is adamant the secret to their successful relationship is their shared love of food.

He says, “I’m a good cook and my wife and I love cooking. We alternate, she cooks one night and I cook the other night. That’s what has kept our marriage going. Cooking is essential.”
