Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy, despite 14 years of marriage and four children, have never shied away from discussing the complexities of their relationship in public.
Recently, on their podcast Therapy Crouch, Abbey joked about the couple living “separate lives”—a sentiment echoed by Peter, who admitted that Abbey’s newfound passion for horse riding has left him feeling sidelined: “I feel like you’ve got a passion, but you’ve f***ed me off.” Abbey’s sharp retort, “Now you know how I feel,” highlights the playful yet honest dynamic that has become a hallmark of their public conversations.
Their candid approach is not new; Abbey has openly reflected on previous rough patches, including a time when she and Peter “hated” each other during her pregnancy with their third child, Johnny.
She once said, “I don’t even know how I got pregnant to be quite honest… The pregnancy with our three-year-old Johnny was hell, I hated [Pete] and he hated me.” Despite these admissions, the couple credits their willingness to pursue individual interests—Peter with golf, Abbey with horse riding and now tennis—as key to maintaining a “healthy relationship,” a view supported by research from the Gottman Institute, which suggests that couples who maintain independent hobbies often report higher relationship satisfaction.
Abbey’s commitment to fitness, especially after a recent illness, underscores the importance of self-care in their lives, as she shared, “I ride for like over an hour, just over an hour, because I’m building up my fitness, because since skiing, I had that bug.
My chest is still not 100%.” Their openness has inspired Abbey to consider sharing their experiences more widely, with plans to offer relationship advice as a “celeb agony aunt,” while Peter remains cautious about publicizing their struggles.
As they continue to balance personal ambitions, family life, and public scrutiny, their story resonates with many, showing that even in the spotlight, honesty and humor can sustain a partnership through its ups and downs.
