Sting and Trudie Styler ‘Are Definitely Marriage Goals' 32 Years in: ‘Still Wildly Attracted'
Sting and his wife of 32 years, Trudie Styler, are more in love than ever, as evidenced by new pics they shared from a vacation they took around this time last year, as a source exclusively tells Closer their famously New-Age lifestyle with working wonders for their marriage and being an inspiration to all those around them. 'They're still just as devoted to their daily yoga practice as ever and it's very obvious that it's helped to keep them both incredibly fit and flexible,' the insider says. 'People love to joke about Sting's love of Tantric sex, but there's a lot more to the Tantra lifestyle than just long sessions in the bedroom.' The 'Shape of My Heart' singer, 73, revealed in the 1990s he and his wife, 71, engage in seven-hour Tantric sex sessions, which caught a lot of attention at the time and had the unfortunate side-effect of oversimplifying the public's understanding of the fairly obscure esoteric yogic tradition to a system used to pump up a couple's love-making game, which The Police frontman himself has attempted to straighten out. Tantra can encompass a lot of different specific systems, as it originally comes from a Sanskrit word meaning 'to weave,' a reference to interwoven layers of conscious awareness that defines the practice. And while the Western world developed an acute fascination with just the sexual aspect of 'neo-tantra,' traditional tantra is complex and can encompass diverse spiritual practices. What many overlooked was that, in addition to the sex, the couple really meant they were putting effort into a deeper connection than what's normally shared via day-to-day conjugal activity. 'If we had seven hours, I'd show you what I mean,' the iconic musician joked in a 2014 interview with The Guardian, while Trudie added, 'We have a great time every time.' The source explains they carry their practice into other aspects of their lives. 'It's a daily practice, even when they don't have sex, they do breathing exercises together morning and night to nurture their connection.' And It's clearly been working. Trudie recently shared a series of throwback pics of them on vacation in the Maldives in March 2024, looking relaxed and happy on a white sand beach. Appearing totally in sync, they strolled hand in hand around the tropical landscape, which the source notes is one of their favorite grounding activities. 'They're both big outdoor enthusiasts.' 'They're always doing something,' the insider adds, 'whether it's bike riding or hiking or gardening, they're very in touch with nature and they insist that's a big part of why they've stayed so full of vigor.' There doesn't seem to be any slowing down in sight for the septuagenarian couple, either. Every year their connection grows stronger, the insider explains. 'Even after all these years they're still wildly attracted to each other, if you didn't know how old they are you would never think they were 71 and 73, it's really amazing to see a couple that's taken such great care of themselves physically and mentally.' 'They are definitely marriage goals.'
