Mary Steenburgen Reveals Goofy Phrase Ted Danson Said to Her After Sex

Mary Steenburgen says she thought her husband Ted Danson was a cool guy before they met … until he punctuated a roll in the hay with a lame phrase.

The actress revealed the news to People at the Golden Gala red carpet on Friday … explaining she always thought TD was a pretty cool guy because of his onscreen persona.

That all changed after they first had sex, MS says … ’cause when they finished, she swears Danson couldn’t help but say “gosh-a-rooni.”

Mary jokingly apologizes to her granddaughters for dishing on the post-sex phrase … ’cause they probably didn’t want to get to know their grandparents that well!

Steenburgen says there was a lot more to Danson than she thought when they originally met … and, over the years she’s learned more about his activism and kindness.

She says his interaction with her kids defintely helped build up the love between them … and, she called going through life with him “thrilling.”

Ted and Mary first met back in 1983 … though they didn’t marry until the mid 1990s. They have children from previously relationships but none together.
