The
longtime couple first met in 1994

"We like each other and we have wonderful sons and we have a creative life. It's always about solving problems and how you solve the problems and how you can deal with them and the strains of life," he said.
Pierce continued, 'But she still makes my heart sing and she still makes my world turn. She allows me to go out into the world and create what I do as an actor. And that takes a strength and a stamina and yeah, we just enjoy each other's company."
