Stephen Fry has opened up in a rare interview about his relationship with husband Elliott Spencer.
The former QI star married his husband back in 2015 after meeting at a house party when he was 57 and Elliott, a comedian and writer, was 27.
While their 30-year age gap has often been the subject of media attention, the pair are famously private when it comes to discussing their relationship in the public eye.

However the writer and presenter, now 67, has now shed some rare light on life with his husband in a recent interview with Rylan Clark on the BBC podcast How to Be in Love.
Addressing being in a marriage with a large age gap, Stephen shared that one “wonderful” thing about being with Elliot is that he “teaches me things” – including some new music recommendations.

“He introduced me to Kendrick Lamar which was a great thing to do because Kendrick Lamar I’ve decided is a great poetical spirit, a really remarkable figure,” he shared.
“That, plus… now you’re really going to laugh here because I thought, ‘is he insane?’. He has a great affection for – and I guess you could call it ironic, but it’s real – for WWE.”
Stephen even revealed that he’s since become a fan of wrestling through his husband, going as far purchasing tickets for a WrestleMania in Las Vegas.

Elsewhere in the interview, Stephen spoke about what makes the two of them work as a couple.
“I can tell you how to have a successful relationship with Elliott, but that’s probably not very helpful,” he said, before going on to speak about the importance of “all the normal human virtues” including “cheerfulness”.
The presenter continued: “When you’re in the presence of a cheerful person, it makes everything better. They’re like their own sunshine. So that’s one of the things. If one is down to help the other come up and…understand each other’s differences as emotional human beings.”
Stephen went on to explain that while he is “extremely energetic and bouncy and chatty in the mornings at breakfast”, his husband is not, adding: “I had to find ways of just calming myself and he had to come up a little bit and not be quite so kind of, ‘Will you shut up Stephen!’.”

Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show back in 2015, the A Bit of Fry & Laurie star said he “knew pretty much straight away that this was someone I wanted to spend, what I considered, the rest of my life with”.
As for their 30-year age gap, he joked: “He’s got rather a lot more [life to go than me].”
Speaking at the Baftas the same year, which Stephen hosted, Elliott told The Mirror: “I don’t care what people think, Stephen is the love of my life, the light of my life.”
Meanwhile, the broadcaster has been announced as part of the line-up of the first ever celebrity version of The Traitors, alongside a host of stars from across the world of music, TV, sport and beyond.
