Going public about one's sex life is not something we hear very often.
But apparently, to the Three's Company alum, Suzanne Somers, it's nothing to be ashamed
of.
Not only did she get explicit with it, but she also used it as a basis to dispel myths
associated with old age and sex.
Join Facts Verse as we dive into the details of why Suzanne Somers isn’t shy about what
she does in the bedroom.
In March of 2021, Somers made headlines when she went public about her active sex life
with her husband.
She has stated that they sometimes have sex three times before noon.
During quarantine amid the pandemic, she received attention from the media for flaunting her
thriving sex life.
Additionally, she used the occasion to counsel other couples on how to rekindle their sexual
lives.
For a couple as old as they are, one would have a hard time believing her claim.
She did state, however, that they achieve their desired sex life with the help of hormones.
She reported that her husband, Alan Hamel, 85, has been on hormone replacement therapy
for the past two decades.
Whenever the couple decides to have a good time in the bedroom, she injects her husband
with testosterone.
They then wait until the following day, when the hormones have kicked in, to have a good
time.
According to Somers, she and her husband have enjoyed an awesome relationship and have done
an excellent job raising their kids.
The couple has worked hard to pay for their college tuition, pay for their marriage, and
have helped them to a great start in life.
So now they are working on their romantic lives and having a good time by themselves.
The pandemic also played a role in the flourishing sex life of the couple.
The quarantine period provided them with more than enough free time.
Which they chose to invest in their love lives, and believe me, it is paying off handsomely.
Unlike many older couples, they seem very satisfied with each other, and they have the
love life of newlyweds.
Somers believes that other couples her age and older do not have an active sex life because
they believe it is acceptable not to.
She also claims that this is due to the fact that they have yet to identify the right triggers.
Friends from her inner circle have expressed concern about the frequency of intimacy in
her life.
But Somers believes it is exactly what she and her husband require.
Her vibrant love life is sourced from her philosophy of what it means to be healthy.
To Somers, being healthy not only entails getting enough exercise, eating a balanced
diet, and being free of illness.
She believes that a healthy person is also sexual.
Maximizing her sexuality is essential to her in order to live a healthy and youthful lifestyle.
One might wonder how much Somers knows to be publicly confident in counseling others
about their sexual lives.
Indeed, she has authored a number of books on a variety of subjects ranging from wellness
to aging to hormones and everything in between.
So it's safe to assume she knows more than the average person.
She is also passionate about teaching women how to rebalance their hormones and nutrients,
which is what inspires her to write more.
She also revealed one of the secret sauces to her juicy sex life: dates nights.
You heard me.
Date nights, according to Suzanne, are as important as anything else, especially in
a long-term relationship.
Despite being together for over 54 years, Suzanne and Alan only discovered the benefits
of date nights five years ago when they first tried it.
Initially, their date nights were held at an outdoor bar.
They would both drink, sing, dance, laugh, and have a good time like they were in their
thirties.
During quarantine, their date nights became a regular occurrence.
So every other night, they'd meet at Big Al's bar, their in-house bar, and have a real conversation
over a bottle of tequila.
And since they couldn't invite anyone over, it would just be them having a good time like
it was nobody's business.
The 75-year-old gave out another of her secret sauces, and this time, it's using progesterone
cream and drinking tequila at 5 pm every day.
It sure sounds weird, but she's living proof.
With regards to the progesterone cream, she recommends the melanocortin-based peptide
PT-141, which stimulates sexual desire.
And for those who love her books, you are in for a treat.
Her 28th book is currently in the works, and it will teach you everything you need to know
about the exciting new world of peptides.

Suzanne Somers and her husband, Alan Hamel, have been together for 54 years but married
for 45 years.
Suzanne and Alan first met while working on the game show, Anniversary Game, in 1969.
Somers was a prize model, while Hamel was the host of the show.
After noticing each other for a while, the two went on their first date.
At that time, the California blonde was 23 years old and naively went against the advice
of her mother on what not to do on a date.
She had her first pot brownie as a result of her fear and uncertainty about Alan's feelings
for her, which led to her first sleepover on a first date.
Fortunately, they began dating soon afterwards and lived together for almost a decade before
getting married in 1977.
Apart from being couples, they have established a variety of different types of relationships
between them.
They are also best friends, business partners, lovers, companions, and a whole lot more.
Somers attributes a portion of her marriage's success to the amount of time and attention
she and her husband devote to one another.
For her, it's the small gestures that matter, such as hugging him, rubbing his hair, and
being told she's beautiful by him.
One of the most beautiful parts of her life, she claims, is when they fall asleep and awaken
still holding hands.
Over the years, the couple has never hesitated to display their affections for one another
publicly.
Whether they are in the comfort of their bedroom or under public scrutiny at award shows, they
are always spotted getting cozy and wrapped up in one another.
During the celebration of last year's Valentine, Hamel set aside his pride and performed a
striptease to the song "Let Me Entertain You" from the 1959 musical Gypsy for the love of
his life.
The pair commemorated their 44th wedding anniversary in November 2020.
Somers took to social media to publicize her anniversary with a video that featured a timeline
of their photos up to that moment.
She captioned the Instagram post.
"Happy Anniversary Al!
My darling, @therealalanhamel — how I love being your wife," "Married today 44 years
and together 53 years!
I don’t want to spend a day without you.
What a life!
Happy Anniversary!
Before Somers became Hamel's life partner, she was previously married to Bruce Somers,
with whom she had her son Bruce Somers Jr.
Their union fell into despair, and by 1968, they had been divorced.
Hamel, on the other hand, was the father of three children from a previous marriage to
Marilyn Shapiro.
Somers and Hamel do not have children together, which is understandable given their combined
family size of five.
Despite enjoying the undying love and longevity in their marriage, it hasn't always been a
smooth ride.
Just like any marriage, Somers and Hamel had a fair share of the cake, which began with
their children.
After becoming stepparents to each other's children, they had the responsibility of uniting
the entire family as one.
But that proved quite impossible as the children were not happy about the newly formed union.
The attitude of the children almost jeopardized not only the stability of their home but also
the foundation of their parents' marriage.
The children's indifference set the marriage of the couple to a really rough start.
A large part of this was due to the couple's lack of experience managing blended families.
In those days, blended families were uncommon and no one anticipated that it would come
with such a problem.
Apart from the children's constant misbehavior, the couple locked horns over parenting styles.
Somers tried to establish ground rules for the children, but Hamel wasn't up for it,
further complicating their disjointed household.
Despite their diametrically opposed parenting styles and their children's unwillingness
to coexist peacefully, they managed to keep their families together.
To make matters worse, their children were subjected to the influence of their estranged
spouses, which only added insult to injury.
The couple's anxiety was compounded by their tendency to be overly protective of their
children.
The thoughts that were fed into the kids by their other parents were at odds with what
the couple tried to establish.
However, the couple was not ready to give up just yet.
Things took a turn for the better when the household went through therapy.
Somers revealed that it took a great deal of soul searching for them to realize what
hindered their progress as a family.
The kids overlooked their egos and started treating one another like real siblings.
They eventually developed into the close-knit family the couple had envisioned from the
start.
The couple took great pride in their children getting along and establishing a peaceful
and harmonious household.
The couple represents a beacon of hope that Hollywood stars can enjoy such longevity in
their marriage.
