Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley are proof a 35-year marriage is possible.

In an interview with Planet Chronicle Digital, Bon Jovi frontman revealed that he and his wife do not require rules in their marriage.

""I believe that we don't require rules. Instead, it's a mutual admiration society where we appreciate and respect each other. It's as simple as waking up in the morning and feeling excited to be with each other. We admire and respect each other, which makes it a pleasure to be together," he stated."

In an interview with Planet Chronicle Digital, Jon revealed how being in a successful band for 40 years has affected his relationships, particularly his marriage.

"Jon stated that the relationships with his family and the family known as "the band" have only strengthened over the years, and the trusts that have been built are what make them special. He emphasized the importance of relationships and how they can bring about magic when written about in a personal way."

In 2016, People reported that Jon Bon Jovi, 62, and Dorothea, 61, first met at Sayreville War Memorial High School in their New Jersey hometown.

In 1989, at the peak of Bon Jovi's fame, the couple ran off to Las Vegas to get married.

Bon Jovi admitted that their marriage has had its share of challenges, but they manage to make it work.

He stated, "She's the glue." "I'm the crazy visionary with numerous things flying, and the seams are all splitting. She's the one following me with the glue, thread, and needle, keeping it all together."

"Despite being unexpectedly thrust into the spotlight as the poster boy for a long-married rock star, I am accepting the role because I am so thrilled."

Jon, echoing his previous comments, revealed to The Independent that he has never lied about being a saint during their 35th wedding anniversary.

"He revealed to the outlet that rock stardom is full of clichés, including never admitting to being a saint but not being foolish enough to ruin one's home life."

Jon and Dorothea will commemorate their wedding anniversary on April 29. They have four children: Stephanie, 30, Jesse, 29, Jake, 21, and Romeo, 20.

Jake, the up-and-coming actor, made his big screen debut in "Rockbottom," which was released on Amazon Prime in March. The rocker spoke to Planet Chronicle Digital about Jake's acting aspirations.

Jon remarked, "Well, he's undoubtedly my son, isn't he? You know that DNA is powerful." He added, "I watched the movie. I believe it's an excellent first film. He filmed it two years ago, so he's already emotionally detached from it."

"Although he was just starting out, I was proud of him for landing a role in his first movie. As an aspiring actor, he had to begin somewhere, and he would build upon this accomplishment. Nonetheless, he would excel."

In April 2023, Jake, 21, and "Stranger Things" actress Millie Bobbie Brown, 20, made headlines with their engagement announcement on Instagram.

Jon, at the time, didn't believe their age should hinder their son's engagement from saying "I do."

"Jon Cohen on SiriusXM's "Radio Andy" in May said, "I don’t believe age is a factor when it comes to finding the right partner. If you can grow together, that's what truly matters.""

All of my kids have found the people they believe they can grow with, and we like them all.

Jon and his bandmates will star in the upcoming Hulu docuseries, "Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story," which premieres April 26. Additionally, Bon Jovi's 16th studio album, "Forever," will be released on June 7.
