Jessica Biel said having a husband who also works in showbiz has helped her and Justin Timberlake's marriage last.

"I think having a partner who understands this industry and, adjacent industries like music industry, entertainment industry has been really deeply important and profound for my life and for our partnership," she explained to InStyle. "Because he just understands when I'm working crazy long hours and I understand, you know, that for him, too."

"I get it when he works all night long. That's kind of normal, and I kind of know that," the mom-of-two, 43, continued. "So we are able to support each other throughout strange schedules and time apart because we know that's just what it takes to make this kind of art."

The actress and Timberlake began dating in 2007 and married five years later.

While talking about her acting, writing and producing aspirations, the brunette beauty acknowledged that expanding her horizons could lead to failure — but the singer, 44, is encouraging her to follow her dreams.

"It's such a delicate business, one thing goes away and everything falls apart," she said. "People have to trust and take risks. You gotta risk it for the biscuit. That's a new thing Justin and I are saying: ‘You gotta risk it for the biscuit.’ I don't even know what it means, like, tangibly."

JT apologized for his behavior but insisted he didn't cheat on his wife.

Timberlake spoke out and denied cheating on his spouse, but he admitted he was in the wrong for his actions.
