Barbra Streisand and James Brolin, married for 25 years, recently disclosed a surprising secret about their relationship. Their love story began with a blind date, where Streisand was taken aback by Brolin’s bald head, initially expecting someone else. However, her honesty about his appearance endeared him to her.

Brolin revealed in an interview with Gayle King that he had been celibate for three years before meeting Streisand, a fact Streisand playfully scolded him for sharing. His celibacy stemmed from disillusionment after two failed marriages. Meeting Streisand changed his perspective, and he knew she was the one.

Despite Brolin’s certainty, it took Streisand some time to reciprocate his feelings, eventually leading to their marriage. The couple, smitten with each other, shared their surprising revelation with King, sparking discussion about their enduring relationship.
