“We never text each other, can you believe that? We started that way – I was like, ‘If you want to reach me, give me a call,'” she told the Something to talk about podcast on Sunday.

“I wasn’t really a texter. I think he tried to text me a few times but I never texted back. Then I thought: this is quite fun.

‘If you really want to reach me, you have to call me. Everyone else we text with. That’s exactly the one thing we don’t do.’
