Pink says marriage is 'awful and wonderful' as she praises husband Coaey Hart and couples therapy

Pink has shared a candid social media post about marriage, praising her husband Carey Hart and their time in couples therapy.

The singer called marriage “awful” and “wonderful” as she shared a photo of herself and Hart, 45, embracing and sharing a laugh.

“My friend @jbpitts2 took this photo of us. He’s still my favorite sweet little dirtball,” Pink, 41, wrote on Instagram.

“He and I have been at this a long time, and it is our relentless and stubborn idealism that keeps us together.

“Marriage is awful, wonderful, comfort and rage. It is boring, terrifying, and a total nail biter. It is loving another fallible creature while trying to love yourself.”

Pink revealed that people “roll their eyes” when they talk about attending therapy.

“But I’ll tell you what. It’s worth it. All of it,” she said.

“Even when it isn’t. Therapy isn’t for weak people or hippies or liberals. It’s for broken people that want to be whole. It’s for runaways that want a family.

“It’s a lesson on how to sit down and listen. How to love yourself so that the other person can, too. I love you babe. I’m grateful we made it to this photo @hartluck.”

A number of Pink’s famous friends commented their support, with Justin Timberlake writing: “BEAUTIFUL!!!!”

Reese Witherspoon wrote: “well said,” while actress Selma Blair replied: “Perfectly said. Congratulations dirtballs.”

Pink married Hart, a former professional motorcyclist, in 2006.

The couple separated in 2008, but rekindled their relationship in 2009.

They share two children; Willow Sage, born 2013, and Jameson Moon, born 2016.
