Bryan Brown revealed the secret to his successful 40 year marriage to English-born actress Rachel Ward on Friday.
The actor, 75, adheres to the same advice husbands have often jokingly spouted over the years.
He also revealed the two of them decided to get married after they had a 'massive argument'.
'I was in London to film Give My Regards to Broad Street with Paul McCartney. Rachel came with me,' he said.
'We took a week off to go to Ireland and had this massive argument. I just thought if we're gonna argue like that, we may as well get married.'
It was love at first sight for Bryan and Rachel, 64, when they met on the set of The Thorn Birds in 1983.
They played husband and wife in the show and got married that same year only months after filming wrapped.
Bryan said no matter the 'work opportunities' the mini-series created for him, he would 'always be more grateful to it for my 40-year marriage and family'.
The long-time lovebirds married at Rachel's childhood home in Oxfordshire, England before settling in Australia and having three children - Rosie, 38, Matilda, 35, and one son, Joe, 30.
Since his big break, Bryan has built a career playing tough as nails characters.
However, the veteran Aussie actor recently revealed the Acorn TV mini-series Darby and Joan he filmed in Queensland triggered his anxiety.
He opened up to The Daily Telegraph about how the 18-week production took a toll on his mental wellbeing, causing him to struggle with insomnia.
Bryan went on to say it was a combination of the extended shoot and being away from his family for so long.
He added the ongoing Covid pandemic affected the overall mood of the production.
I was an Assistant Director on The Thorn Birds. It's hard to believe its been this long. I remember the day they first met. They were a pleasure to work with. I wish them both the very best!!
nice to hear this about them, I'm a fan of BB
Oh, great, write some article or a book about the whole Thorn birds memories! It will be really interesting read!
@@avagrego3195 Me too, love Brian Brown. But, then again, I've always loved all the Australian men!!🥰
You should be so Proud. "The Thorn Birds" was a Milestone in TV History. It would have been a massive hit if it was amended/released to Theaters back then. I remember my Mother years ago ask me "Hey, sit down with me and watch this TV Mini-Series...I think you will like it!"...I was so taken by the story, I watched it all night after night. And NEVER FORGOT Ralph and Meggie 🌹💔🕊️
@@avagrego3195 Love love love Brian Brown! Australian men are always the best, imo! ♥️
The Thornbirds is still my all time favorite Mini series 💗
Mine too!❤
It was Epic !
I could never watch it. The novel is so much better and the two actors pale in contrast
Ditto they make a lovely couple
To think these two would never have met, never got married, never loved one another, if it wasn't for The Thorn Birds!
I am so happy to see them still together!
I say they move out of LA or Hollywood that how their marriage lasted 40 years.
@@LaraCroftEyes1 Milk outlives marriages in LA haha
Good one and Cockroaches last longer than most marriages in La LA land.
Loved Rachel Ward in the Thorn Birds. She’s still looking good and has aged naturally 😍
Was just talking about Rachel Ward, loved her in Against All Odds. It was such an under- rated film.
I had no idea they were married! Good for them!
I think it was love at first sight for any man who ever saw Rachel. I am glad to hear of this happy union.
I sobbed like a baby watching The Thornbirds, it was so , so good 👍
Funny my friend and I watched it from dusk to dawn coz we didn't it was set on slow
I think the fact that he missed his family so much being away from his family tells the tale, he loves his wife and family that much. I love the line 'we argued, and zi said if we are arguing we should just get married' *lol*. If you want to see him really act, find 'A Town Like Alice'.
Wow amazing. Big love and long marriage. True love❤️🇱🇺🌹🙏God bless them
I used to follow the series on French TV in the '90s and I didn' know these two were married and still together ever since! They were both young and beautiful. They still are a beautiful couple who grew old very well! Congrats 👏
Lovely couple and great actors
I don’t like the word ‘secret’. There is no secret? Mutual respect is a fantastic start.
Loved this, thank you. Nice to read about couples that weather the storms of life, well done to you both. ❤❤🇮🇪
Two great actors ❤ Very happy to see you are still happy, and married.
💖🙏⚘️Oh Yes The Thornbirds Never Forget That,So Beautifully Made💖🙏⚘️And 40 Yr Already?May God Bless Them All💖🙏⚘️
Bryan Brown had once believed he wouldn't marry or have children, because his own parents divorced when he was young. Rachel must have changed his mind.
They are soul-mates! 😍🥰❤️💐
Love from Marseilles
My mind is so blown right now. I watched Thorn birds as a kid and loved it. I recently watched the series again and it’s still one of the best I’ve ever seen. I had no idea that Rachel and Brian we actually married. Wow 🤩👍
He was great in a Town Like Alice. Excellent film .
Here is the missing quote from this, which is his actual secret... 'The main thing is to say "yes" to your wife all the time, and if anything goes wrong say, "It's my fault." If men understood that they'd be happier.'
Wife: does my bum look big in these jeans.
Husband: YES...too big.
Women, self entitlement, no accountability are synonymous.
What a terrible attitude to bring to relationships.
Hence why only 10% of relationships work. They had a massive fight Bryan wasn't saying YES and it's his fault I can assure..
So your theory is wrong and delusional.
Wait, I don't get it... what was the secret?? What advice husbands often jokingly spout?? This is clickbait!!!
The secret? 😂 I’ve been married for 30 years, and there is No Secret. It’s just the every day, magical, ordinary, work of Love
lol, that's the secret. Many couples don't have that.
And sometimes when people last that long there just in a comfortable rut and time passes on….
Beautiful Couple.
Did I miss something? What was the secret he revealed "to his 40-year marriage"? Rachel was so gorgeous in "The Thornbirds".
Hello how are you doing?

Love is not the only magic. Everybody gives and takes. Compromise and go on your life.
Noooooo ,these many years passed and i didn't know Megan is married to Luke O'Neill 😲😲😲😲😍
Compromise and be your self. Give and take. Not only take. Accept the other for what they are. That's the secrect.

Очень красивые и талантливые артисты, благодаря им фильм прекрасен, жизненный, побольше бы таких настоящих шедевров!
Felicidades bella pareja o mejor ideal pareja como dos gotas de agua......sigan siendo felices y honestos....
Shoot the second season of Darby and Joan near home. I absolutely love that show. I also suffered from anxiety since I was a child and panic attacks from the age 28. 70 now. It’s scary business. Triggers are a bitch. I loved Greta as his colleague in DARBY AD JOAN. Still waiting for a project for MR Brown and his dynamo wife, Mrs Rachel to do together in front of the camera. Loved Palm Beach movie. Super talented family! Been a fan since Thorn Birds. I read the book first and was so impressed that the series stayed close the book. It’s one of my fav stories.
Meggie e Luke forever ❤🌹🥂🍾
gorgeous looking couple
Is it because he prepares a mean Cocktail?
The secret to being married for 40 years to Rachel Ward is Rachel Ward.
What are lovely couple
Very good actors, I'll tweak them both!

His secret, HE'S MARRIED TO RACHEL WARD!!! Not much of a secret.
The music so over dramatic
She is and was beautiful. She always been one of my favorites. She was sexy a hell in Sharky’s Machine.
Shocking I love my wife
When your wife is someone as divine as Rachel there is no secret to a 40-year marriage.
the secrets obvious if you are punching above your weight you do everything in your power to keep her, i did
You never did give the big secret of how they stayed together so this was a waste of my time
👍❤️🙏🏻🥰Wundervoll ❤️🙏🏻
The eternal married to Jesus!
E dire che nella fiction dovevate detestarvi. ...
