Donnie Wahlberg just revealed one of the secrets to him and Jenny McCarthy’s marital success, even when they are miles apart and travelling for work.
“We have the luxury of being able to sleep together whenever we’re apart,” Wahlberg told Drew Barrymore during a recent appearance on her show. “So whoever’s going to sleep first just calls the other one. We spend the whole night together when we’re not together and look, it’s not that we’re insecure or that we need to do this, we love to do it.”

He said FaceTime is nearly as good as being together in person. “It’s great. It’s like, why not? Right? We’re going to miss each other, why wake up saying, ‘Oh my God, I missed you.’” he added. “I tell her if you wake up at three in the morning and can’t sleep, just tap me on the shoulder through the phone and I’ll wake up and hang out with you for a while.”
Wahlberg has been married to McCarthy since 2014. McCarthy, now 51, rose to fame as a Playboy model, but transitioned into something of a media magnate in recent years, per Forbes.
