Carey Hart Reveals the Secret to 19-Year Marriage to Pink (Excl)
Carey Hart gave Us his best-kept secret about his two-decade marriage to Pink.
“I’m at the 19-year mark, so I’m still getting called an idiot,” Hart, 49, exclusively joked to Us Weekly while discussing his appearance on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. “I look forward to 35 and I’m no longer an idiot.”
Jokes aside, Hart did have a real answer to share with Us.
“I guess it’s communication, having a teammate [and] talking through bad situations,” Hart said. “Marriage isn’t easy, and it’s always coming back to the table.”
Hart and Pink, 45, met in 2001, tying the knot in 2006. Despite separating two years later, they ultimately reconciled in 2010. The singer and Hart welcomed daughter Willow and son Jameson in 2011 and 2016, respectively.
According to Hart, he and Pink are “highly competitive at anything.”
“Everything is a competition, especially with me,” Hart quipped. “We are highly, highly competitive people.”
The former motocross racer will next bring his competitive spirit to Special Forces season 3, but it was admittedly “tough” to be apart from Pink and the kids.
“My wife is about to wrap up a 2-year tour, which I came off tour to do this show, and we eat, sleep, breathe together and so, yeah, it was hard,” Hart admitted to Us. “It was probably a nice vacation for my wife, being away from me for a couple of weeks, but it was tough.”
Missing home ultimately became a “secondary thought” for Hart after becoming “so immersed” in his Special Forces training.
“Once you’re there and you step onto that boat for the start of the show, the intensity and the lack of sleep, and lack of thought process in anything other than what you’re doing at that moment,” Hart recalled. “Your nerves are running high, your anxieties are running high, your adrenaline is running high. It was just a full immersion situation.”
It’s not to say that any part of the Special Forces was easy to tackle.
“For me, the hardest part was the unknown. We’re all in control of our lives. We get out of bed, we move through our day, we make decisions,” Hart said. “When you relinquish those opportunities to decide for yourself, and to fall in line and to follow the D.S. and to go through this experience; that was probably the most shocking piece for me.”
Hart also learned to be able to “dig a little deeper” to keep pushing through barriers with each task.
“It’s easy to throw the towel in when you’re in your everyday life, and this was a situation where, if you threw the towel in, you went home,” Hart said.
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 3 premieres on Fox Wednesday, January 8, at 8 p.m. ET.
