It has been nearly two decades and the couple have recently opened up to People Magazine about what the key to their long Hollywood romance has been.
Laughter is the key to their long marriage
Peter Hermann said to People, "I never thought I would have this much laughter in my life. Not just actual laughter, but also the way that Mariska is just the embodiment of laughter - of joy." While describing that laughter is the key to their marriage, Peter and Mariska share three kids together. Two sons, August and Andrew, and one adopted daughter named Amaya. They are truly a beautiful family!
