When asked if he ever calls his wife by her character Buffy’s name, Prinze Jr. said: ‘Not only have I never called her Buffy, I have never even seen the show.
‘I wasn’t the demographic, in my defense. She was my girlfriend, then my wife [so] I’ve never called her that ever. We’ve been married 20 years, together even longer.’

‘I hesitate at giving [relationship] advice because what’s good for me may kill another, just like peanut butter,’ he said, before explaining that doing the cooking and cleaning and making his wife laugh are key to their thriving marriage.
‘My mum was a chef and I learned how to cook, and I married someone who couldn’t cook. So I’m necessary. She needs me to live and sustain herself!’ he joked.
‘Number two is laughter. I still make her laugh.’
He added that he ‘loves doing laundry’, explaining: ‘I hate a mess. If something is dirty, I clean it. I do the dishes while I’m cooking so there’s less s**t to look at.’
