Sarah Michelle Gellar Reveals the Secret to Her 17 Year Marriage to Freddie Prinze Jr.

Sarah Michelle Gellar is opening up about what makes her relationship with Freddie Prinze Jr. work. They’ve been married since 2002!

“I think the truth of any relationship is that, whether you’re a couple, whether you’re friends, whether you’re business partners, is you have to put the work into a relationship. We live in a very disposable society and people don’t want to have to work. They want immediate reactions, they want immediate responses. It takes work,” Sarah Michelle Gellar said to Us Weekly.

She continued, “It takes work to have a good friendship. You have to call and check in and dedicate that time, and most people aren’t willing to put that work in. So to have a successful relationship, whether it’s marriage, whether it’s friendship, whether it’s business, you have to put the time, if you want to see the results.”

If you missed it, Freddie recently had to be replaced in a hot new CW show.
