Ina Garten says asking for separation from her husband saved her marriage: 'Thank God I did'
Fox News
Ina Garten said separating from her husband when she started her Barefoot Contessa business in 1978 turned out to be the best thing for their marriage in the long run.
"There were certain roles that we played, and I found them really annoying," she said. "I felt that if I just hit the pause button, I would get his attention."
She said that she first "shattered" their "traditional roles" when she quit her job at the White House where they had both worked and bought the shop in the Hamptons.
