Suzanne Somers of “Three’s Company” fame has been married to her husband Alan Hamel for 44 years, but she’s made no secret of the fact that their sex life is still as active as ever.

In a new interview this week, the 74 year-old actress is opening up about how she keeps things steamy in her marriage after all these years.

“I picked the right husband. I believe he picked the right wife. We are unbelievably happy and secure together,” Somers told Yahoo Life. “He’s my everything. I love to please him. And that makes me feel very sexy when I’m pleasing him and same with him towards me.”

Somers has long been open about how hormone therapy has played a huge role in her sex life with Hamel, 85.

“I cannot emphasize sex enough,” she continued. “I’ve got my husband on hormones. He’s been on hormones, testosterone replacement for 25 years. He’s in the mood, I’m in the mood. Are we in the mood all the time? No! But a lot of the time. And if not, there’s another hormone I take called oxytocin, which is the love and sex hormone that makes you feel very loving, but I don’t even need it.”

As for what makes Somers feel sexy in her 70s, she chalks that up to self-confidence.

“I like who I am, I like the way I look,” she said. “I take good care of myself. When I walk down the hallway toward my husband naked, then I know he’s just really enjoying looking at me.”

The couple doesn’t spend all their time at home, however.

“Twice a week we go out on an actual date because I just love to get dressed up,” Somers explained. “I put on my high heels and a cocktail dress and he usually puts on his cool tight black pants and his black shirt and his white dinner jacket. I like the way we look together. We go out and have a cocktail and a great dinner and listen to the tinkling music. And we live a very romantic, sexy life.”

In the end, Somers wants her fans to know that when it comes to an active sex life, age really is just a number.

“The biggest misconception people have about sex over 70 is that you’re not having sex anymore,” she concluded. “And most of the 70-year-olds I know are having regular sex.”
