Jerry O’Connell has surprised fans with a very personal confession about his wife, Rebecca Romijn.
The actor admitted that he does not mind her natural body odor and even finds it comforting.
Jerry made the comments while speaking on the Thanks Dadwith Ego Nwodim podcast.
During the chat, the Stand by Me star revealed that Romijn prefers using crystal deodorant instead of regular deodorant.
He joked that the product does not do its job, saying, “And I’m here to tell everyone, it doesn’t work. The crystals under the arms doesn’t work.”
Jerry then shared a surprising reason why it does not bother him. “Now I don’t mind the way my wife… it doesn’t offend me. I actually… I kind of like it when I can smell my wife’s body odor,” he said.
He added, “It’s kind of like, yeah… she’s alive, we’re alive, we’re living. It’s, like, a little kicking and like, it’s a little funky town.”
The couple, however, have been together for more than 20 years and will celebrate their 19th wedding anniversary this month.
They also share 17 year old twin daughters, Dolly and Charlie.
The interview came after the actor recently joked about his wife’s former husband, John Stamos, saying that the two have now moved past their old differences.
Despite the unusual confession, Jerry’s comments left many fans laughing and showed the playful bond he shares with his wife.
