The secret to a happy marriage

By May 1, 2023Culture

secret to a happy marriageWho knows how many books have been written that supposedly reveal the secret to a happy marriage? They are countless, because there’s probably no single secret.

The late, great celebrity chef, Julia Child, had a simple formula:

“The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person. You know they’re right if you love being with them all the time.”

The 2009 biopic movie, “Julia Julia,” provided a warm glimpse into the success of Julia Child’s marriage. It’s pretty simple: the couple liked each other. They loved being with each other all the time.

In the scene below, you get a feel for the comfort they provided each other. Ms. Childs (as portrayed by Meryl Streep) gets a letter from her sister announcing her latest pregnancy, a bittersweet reminder that she and her husband (Stanley Tucci) have been unable to conceive.

His simple embrace is all she needs to focus on her sister’s happiness rather than her own sadness.

Julia later says:

“We had a happy marriage because we were together all the time. We were friends as well as husband and wife. We just had a good time.”
