Louis Theroux revealed his interesting take on monogamy - after being married to his wife Nancy Strang for 14 years (seen together last November)
In the wake of his newest documentary about the rise of toxic male influencers, an interview he did last year with Rylan Clark has resurfaced where they spoke about relationships
'So you could be married for 90 years. Can you imagine being with one partner for 90 years? Would that be a life well-lived?
'I mean it sounds almost a bit crass to define things in those terms and maybe there's something incredible. It does feel imprisoning in an odd way.
'And don't you want to get to the end of your life and feel like you tried everything on the buffet. Do you know what I mean?'
Rylan then retorted: 'I think I've ate a lot from the buffet.'
Louis then replies: 'There's still a lot on the buffet but are you full up maybe?' as the pair laughed away at the chat.
In 2024 Louis offered rare insight into his marriage to Nancy, as he .
The documentarian, tied the knot with Nancy back in 2012, and in an appearance on The Receipts Podcast and revealed that he was first impressed by her 'silky' dance moves.
She told hosts Tolly & Audrey: 'One of the key moments was when I saw her dancing to ''What's Luv'' by Fat Joe featuring Ashanti.
'I'd been on three or four dates with her but I've never seen her on the dance floor and I always used to think that I was an okay dancer, well I liked to dance and I thought I was moving in time.
'But when I saw her, I was like, ''oh my God, that's what a really good dancer looks like.'' She was just so sinuous and silky on the floor. And I thought, wow, she's out of my league.'
In the chat on his podcast Rylan, 37, asked Louis if he could ever be polyamorous to which he had an interesting response
He made the heartbreaking reveal in his 2019 autobiography Gotta Get Theroux This, where he reflected on both his professional and personal life.
While Louis is relatively private about his home and private life, in the book he spoke candidly in the book about his romances, his children and his former marriage woes.
Of their tragedy, he penned: 'I cursed myself for the foolhardiness we'd shown in taking [Nancy] through the blood-letting of another round of human creation...
'Getting to term [in her pregnancy] had been a trial, two had ended in miscarriage. There were tears on a weekend in Yosemite...
'We'd been through nothing like that before. A language of grief and the social forms I was versed in did not seem adequate to the occasion.
'But sadness was complete and if I'm honest, I didn't understand what she was going through. It still seemed abstract to me whereas for Nancy the babies had been real'.
