“Don Gummer and Meryl Streep have been separated for more than six years, and while they will always care for each other, they have chosen lives apart.”

Meryl Streep once talked about how one needs to shut up every once in a while for a long-lasting marriage

In a 2002 interview with Vogue, Meryl revealed that their secret to a long-lasting marriage was their willingness to bend and shut up occasionally. She further added:

"There's no road map on how to raise a family: It's always an enormous negotiation. But I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life. I can't imagine eschewing one for the other."

In an interview with Sydney Morning Herald in 2019, she elaborated on their partnership, saying that Gummer was the ‘good cop’ to her ‘bad cop’. Meryl Streep further emphasised that she was grateful to have a partner who was always happy to look after the children when she had to travel for work. Streep added:

"Teamwork is everything. My husband Don was very involved. He was a little more relaxed when it comes to raising kids. I was more of a tiger mom."
