Lancaster then shared that she and her husband “never take each other for granted,” all these years later.
“We don’t take each other for granted and make sure we have date nights together: dinner, the theater, or whatever, doing the school run together and having an ‘a deux’ coffee on the way home, long romantic walks together...” she said.
