Jessie James Decker and Eric Decker have been married since 2013 and now have three children together. When speaking to Fox News Digital, the country music singer revealed what keeps her and Eric's marriage so strong.

"I've been really lucky to be able to bring Eric, bring the kids, whenever it makes sense for our schedules. And so we're rarely apart that long," she said. "We've got a day rule where three days is like the absolute limit. Even though a couple of weeks ago, during the second week, it was a little bit longer. And I definitely struggled with that."

"We're fortunate," she continued to say. "We get to really be together and, you know, music is family, and I've just been really blessed with that. As soon as Eric retired, I was able to start working, and it was his turn to be a support system for me. So, we've been really blessed with that."

In regards to her latest journey -- competing on "Dancing With the Stars" -- Jessie James Decker said having Eric by her side has really helped with the stress and struggles.

"Eric has literally been my rock through this entire process so far," she continued to tell Fox News Digital. "He even stopped by dance rehearsals [Wednesday], and I was hard on myself because I wasn't getting it. And him just walking in and just giving me a hug is everything. He's my person, and he is my rock."
