The country music singer told Fox News Digital that is the one piece of marriage advice she's received that has actually worked.

Jessie James Decker is sharing the one piece of advice she actually listened to when it comes to making a marriage work.

During an interview with Fox News Digital at a pre-CMA Fest party she hosted at her store, Kittenish, in Nashville, Tennessee, the 38-year-old country singer shared the piece of marriage advice she took into consideration.

"The best piece of advice that I've learned that actually works in real life is to keep flirting," she said. "You have to keep things playful. You've gotta keep that young love spirit, and we just naturally do. You gotta be silly."

She and her husband, former football player Eric Decker, first met through a mutual friend in 2011 and were engaged a year later in April 2012.

CHIP AND JOANNA GAINES SAY THEIR 'AWKWARD' NEW HOBBY HAS REIGNITED THEIR 22-YEAR MARRIAGE

They got married the following year, in June 2013, and have since welcomed four children together: Vivianne, 12, Eric "Bubby," 10, Forrest, 8, and Denver, 2.

Although they have been married for 13 years, Jessie shared that she is surprised to say she is "still madly in love with him," adding she hears people say marriage is hard and that "you gotta work hard" to make the marriage work, but that she hasn't "experienced that."

"I still look at him with the same goo goo gaga eyes as I did from the beginning," she said. "He's my best friend, and we're still more in love than ever, and I'm so grateful for that. Yeah, early on they tell you, 'oh, that'll fade,' and it hasn't faded."

In a separate interview with Fox News Digital in February, Jessie shared that "you're setting yourself up for success" in a relationship when you seek someone out who you can relate to "on the most important things to you."

Rather than chasing perfection or performance, Decker said their shared values have allowed them to adapt without losing connection.

"We see the world the same way. We love the same, we wanted to raise our kids the same," she said. "When life happens, youโ€™re able to just get through anything together."

The two recently appeared alongside one another on the hit reality show, "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test." They made it to day six of the challenge before Eric was medically withdrawn due to a hip and back injury sustained during a challenge.

Following his departure, Jessie chose to voluntarily withdraw from the competition rather than continue on her own. While their time on the show was cut short, Jessie told Fox News Digital in September 2025 that doing it together helped strengthen their relationship.

"I think that experience, when it was all said and done, we had one of the best dates and nights of our entire marriage," Jessie explained. "We had a layover in London, and we went to dinner, and we, like, got to lay in a bed and I just feel like we laid there looking at each other, and it was just such a beautiful night."

She continued, "We went through something really hard together, and it really does bring you closer together. We were just so grateful to be laying in that bed together."
