Giovanna Fletcher says her relationship with Tom Fletcher has grown since they became parents.
The author - who has seven-year-old son Buzz, Buddy, five, and Max, two, with the McFly frontman - admits the "comfortable" nature of their relationship is what she loves the most.
Speaking about their romance, she shared: "Me and Tom have been married for nine years, together for 18. We met at 13 at theatre school. There's the whole myth of growing up with someone and it gets too comfortable, but comfort is nice. Seeing each other as parents is a whole new thing."
And Giovanna also opened up about writing, admitting it is less stressful than acting.
Speaking about whether she prefers acting or writing, she told the Private Parts podcast: "I'm able to create words and characters without the stress of acting. But with writing you're on your own and, when you're acting, you're part of a world that makes you feel alive."
Meanwhile, Giovanna previously admitted she knew her husband Tom was special from "day one".
She said of their childhood romance: "I felt it from day one. There was just something about him, something that kept drawing us in. I had a boyfriend for the 14 months we weren’t together but Tom was always there. We never left each other alone, really."
Giovanna said Tom would even send her songs he’d written for McFly, which caused her then-boyfriend to become suspicious of their bond.
She added: "He was a bit like: ‘Er, this is interesting.’ But in my head it was innocent. When I met the McFly boys for the first time Dougie [Poynter] said: ‘He literally talks about you non-stop’ and I remember being in Namibia [where she spent a month doing charity work] and thinking about Tom more than I did my boyfriend. But even then I put it down to the fact that he was my first love."
