How Hallmark Star Alison Sweeney Makes Her Marriage Work

With a busy career and two kids, Alison Sweeney works hard to make sure her marriage to David Sanov is a priority. "I'm juggling a lot of different schedules, and sometimes things don't always work out, but my husband Dave and I work hard to keep our relationship solid apart and separate from our role as parents, even if it's just snuggling watching TV together after the kids are in bed," she told SheKnows.

In fact, sitting down to watch their favorite shows together is very important to Sweeney, who revealed that she once started a heated argument with Sanov when she thought he had watched "Survivor" without her. "We laugh about it, but the shows we watch together are sacred," she explained. "It was like a serious pact when he committed to waiting until I got back from filming on location to watch the 'Breaking Bad' finale together. That's LOVE!"

Sweeney added that she and her husband have other things they enjoy together, including traveling and going to concerts. And just to make sure they're both on the same page, each year on their anniversary, the couple gives each other an evaluation. "We talk about our three favorite things about the other person and then three things that we could work on," Sweeney told Closer Weekly.
