The singer Pink spoke out this week to give credit for her long-lasting marriage to Carey Hart to couple’s therapy.

Daily Mail reported that the 40 year-old singer revealed on Instagram Live on Friday that she and Hart “would not be together” if it weren’t for participating in couple’s therapy with Vanessa Inn.

“I got a lot of s*** for telling people that Carey and I have been in couple’s counseling with Vanessa,” Pink explained.  “So I talk to Vanessa on my own and I also talk to Vanessa with Carey. And for Carey and I it’s the only reason that we’re still together.”

“Because you know, I think partners, after a long time, we just speak – I can’t say it’s a man and woman thing,” she added. “I think it’s a partner thing and spouse thing that you just speak two different languages and you need someone to hear both of you and then translate it for you.”

“And without Vanessa translating for me for the last 18 years, we would not be together,” Pink continued. “We just wouldn’t. Because we are not taught as kids how to have relationships, how to get along with people.”

She went on to have a conversation with Inn on the live in which she told a story that showed how therapy helped her understand her “intimacy” problems.

“There was a moment in couple’s counseling with Carey, I’ll never forget, in our – in the office, I had been complaining about him for years, about: ‘He’s just not present. He’s not here. He doesn’t get it. He’s not hearing me emotionally. He’s not even trying to understand my language,'” Pink recounted to Inn. “And you were like: ‘Okay, everybody shut up. Stand up. Put your hands on each other’s hearts and just look into each other’s eyes.’ And this man that I had been saying won’t show up for me was, his feet were planted in that earth, his hand was on my heart, and his eyes were looking into my soul.”

“And guess what I did – I started giggling and I looked away,” Pink continued. “And in that moment I realized that I was a little bit full of s***. Like I was the one here that was just talking and there have been many of those times.”
