Sunrise host Edwina Bartholomew has revealed she sleeps in a separate bed to her husband – and it hasn’t affected their sex life.
The Channel 7 star says having a different bedroom to her husband Neil Varcoe is “the secret to our happy marriage” – and pointed out that it had not stopped them from having two children.
Bartholomew, 39, said they started sleeping separately about seven years ago.
“When I would get up for work, he would struggle to get back to sleep so we decided to trial separate rooms,” she write in a column for News Corp Australia.
“When we had kids, it continued. I would sleep overnight with the baby in my room and then he would wake up early to take over. Ten years into our relationship and five years into our marriage, it works a charm.”
Bartholomew and her husband share two children – Molly, three, and Thomas who is almost one.
Despite being a relatively new mum, she backed calls for ‘adults-only’ suburbs with no children.
“I think it’s a brilliant idea. I love my kids. I love their company but I don’t love the sound of someone else’s screaming child,” she wrote.
