A lasting relationship isn't about marriage," she said in Porter magazine. And Goldie, who has been dating Kurt since 1983 should know. "It's about compatibility and communication. And you both need to want it to work."

"Intention is the key. It's also about not losing yourself in each other. Being together, two pillars holding up the house and the roof, and being different, not having to agree on everything, learning how to deal with not agreeing. Everything's a choice."

he added, "I've been married twice. The reality of 'Oh, oh, oh' in Beyoncé's single ladies can turn into a (depressed tone) 'Oh, oh, oh.' Basically, once you've done it once, once you've done it twice and you realize that marriage, or the act of marrying, has nothing to do with the success."

​​"A marriage ends up being a business deal, no matter how long or short it is somebody owes somebody money. I was at the short end of the stick on that one."​

"​The wake-up call every day is, 'Do you I want to be with this man? Do I want to be in this relationship? Am I willing to give something? How can it flourish and do I want to be there?' Any marriage, any ceremony, any ring will not define that truth," she said on Alan Carr's British program, Chatty Man.

As for Kurt's facial hair, if you're wondering, she's not exactly a fan, but she says, "​He wakes up every morning like a child and is always happy and he brings me my coffee and starts the day off perfectly. All of that is fine and well. So in terms of not liking his moustache, that is lightweight stuff."
