“We have to be teammates, not opponents, not assets, not liabilities. I appreciate what she brings to me, and I think it’s the other way around. We appreciate each other,” Ice-T explained.
After being married for more than two decades, he told the newspaper that finding the right partner is important for someone who is “ready for all scenes” in life.
“Getting married is like choosing actors for a movie,” he explained. “You have to cast someone who’s ready for all the scenes. Now, there’s going to be fun scenes. There’s going to be sad scenes. There’s going to be tough scenes. There’s going to be fight scenes. A lot of people don’t sign up for the whole movie. They just sign up for a good part.”
