The Secrets of Marlo Thomas and Phil Donahue's Loving, Lusty Marriage

It was love at first sight for Marlo Thomas in 1977, she and husband Phil Donahue have been making it work ever since.
Please bear with us, but Marlo Thomas and Phil Donahue's love story is about to get super-corny.

"I know my husband loves corn on the cob," Thomas told E! News in an exclusive interview. "I mean, he would kill for corn on the cob."

Long story short, Thomas makes sure to have it in their home at all times, even during the winter, "so that he can enjoy it," the actress said. "I see him all lit up whenever it's served."

Better yet, Thomas doesn't even like corn all that much. But she adores her husband of 43 years.
