Barbara Corcoran is a shark in the boardroom — not just in the bedroom.
The 75-year-old “Shark Tank” star opened up about sleeping in separate bedrooms from her husband Bill Higgins and revealed that having sex for less time is a bonus.
“I think there’s something to be said about your own personal space. I lead a very busy life. I have a big family whom I always keep entertained. I have very honest, active friends and so I need rest more than anything, and my husband is not resting,” Corcoran said in a preview of “The Jamie Kern Lima Show,” which was received People,
The television star revealed why having separate rooms is beneficial for them, almost 37 years after they tied the knot on Valentine’s Day in 1988.
Corcoran shared that he has a lot of “thoughts” in his head and that he finds it difficult “at the end of the day to come up with the energy to listen to them, nod, and contribute to the conversation.”
“I run a little less,” she admitted. “I’d better go to my room, and I’ll have an hour to myself.”
And there is an understanding between the two when it comes to entering each other’s territory.
“If I go into the living room, my husband follows me. I go to my bedroom, he doesn’t dare to come inside. I have to invite her into my bedroom and I love it,” Corcoran said. “He never calls me back because he knows I’ll never come into his bedroom, but I have to invite him into my bedroom.”
While the entrepreneur turned TV star joked that having separate bedrooms makes sex a “small thing,” she said the two still spend special nights out together — but there’s a different kind of intimacy involved.
“My idea of a special night with my husband is a good game of Scrabble. He often calls me S or S, and I say ‘Scrabble’ because the first S means sex, and I say, ‘No, Scrabble,’ and I love to beat him at Scrabble, and he loves to beat me. Is. In Scrabble, and it was a great night,” Corcoran shared.
This is not the first time she has talked about the joy of having her own room.
In March, the “Shark Tank” personality said that not sharing space with her husband keeps intimacy “fun.”
“I have had a separate bedroom with Bill for almost 40 years,” she explained. “I have to invite him in – he invites me in sometimes.”
Corcoran also said that it just doesn’t keep their sex life alive.
“He leaves piles of stuff everywhere and I’m very neat, so I don’t sleep well at night,” she said. “Now I sleep like a baby.”
Corcoran also reflected The advice that Jen Garner’s mother gave her About daughter’s marriage.
“You really have to accept your partner for who they are and not hope for marriage they are going to changeBecause they never do that. You have to be satisfied! What you see is what you get,” Corcoran Said hello! in March.
