He continued, “However, if you believe I would ever risk anything for the sake of indulging the narcissist inside me, you are mistaken. What a foolish decision it would be. What kind of excesses does a man require to feed that destructive flame? It simply isn’t worth it.”
Bon Jovi debuted their inaugural album in 1984, a time when the vocalist and Hurley were already a well-established couple. By the time they exchanged vows in 1989, he had become, in Strahan’s words, a “sex symbol.”
While Bon Jovi refrained from delving into specifics regarding past escapades, he didn’t hesitate to sing his wife’s praises. “There is no doubt in my mind that the world spins because of her,” he declared. “Because of her efforts in guiding our children, in keeping me grounded, and in the joint efforts we make to maintain stability. No doubts whatsoever.”
Jon Bon Jovi, accompanied by Dorothea and their daughter Stephanie Rose Bongiovi, was seen at the 66th Grammy Awards Pre-Grammy Gala.
“She’s not afraid to hold me accountable,” he continued, “yet she stands by me in times of need. And I stand by her in her moments of weakness. Throughout my career, through its highs and lows, we’ve been there for each other.” The singer of “Bad Medicine” emphasized the importance of “growing together” within a marriage, highlighting that he and Hurley “originated from humble beginnings, shared the same hometown, attended the same high school, and had the same peripheral circle of friends.”
Their wedding took place in Las Vegas in a clandestine manner – no one, not even their fans, was aware of their intentions to tie the knot. “Chaos ensued from the moment we disclosed our plans,” Bon Jovi reminisced. “My parents, Doc (McGhee, the band’s manager at the time), the band. One would think people would have been thrilled for us!”

In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Bon Jovi elaborated on the current status of his marriage, stating, “I don’t believe we need rules. It’s simply a mutual admiration society. You wake up each morning eager to be with one another. You admire and respect each other. It’s a joy to experience. It’s a joy to exist in.”
He described her as “the adhesive,” adding, “I’m the imaginative one with ideas swirling around, causing seams to split. She follows me with glue, thread, and needle, holding it all together.”
“Somewhat unexpectedly, I’ve become the poster boy for long-lasting rock star marriages. But I embrace the role because I am genuinely happy.”
