The couple work together, which Jill previously confessed has helped their marriage stay strong.
“It allows us to spend time together where we’d otherwise be unable to,” she said.
“Paul travels a lot so when he is around, we get to have lunch dates. If we didn’t work together, chances are that may not happen as often. I think it’s helped us stay close.”
