The enduring love story of Suzanne Somers and Canadian talk show host Alan Hamel is nothing short of remarkable. Having first crossed paths in 1969, their bond grew inseparable over the years. Alan poignantly expressed this connection on Instagram, revealing that they spent an astonishing 42 out of their 46 married years never more than an hour apart, a testament to the depth of their union.
Their journey began on the set of “The Anniversary Game,” where Alan was the host and Suzanne one of the models presenting prizes. Despite being married at the time, Alan found himself entangled in an extramarital affair with the future star of “Three’s Company.” Their initial night together was a whirlwind of firsts for Suzanne, marked by a pot brownie, a visit to a man’s hotel room, and an intimate encounter on their inaugural date. This liaison resulted in a pregnancy, prompting Suzanne to make the difficult decision to undergo an abortion, a choice shadowed by deception and concealment in those earlier days.
Yet, from this tumultuous beginning, a foundation for a lasting relationship began to emerge. Alan divorced in 1971, and six years later, he and Suzanne exchanged vows. Suzanne would later use their enduring marriage as a platform to advocate for sexual positivity, never shying away from candid discussions about their intimate life. Her openness extended to revealing rather scandalous details.
Suzanne’s candid remarks about their physical intimacy drew attention. In a 2019 interview, she credited PT-141 injections for reviving both her and Alan’s libido, even at ages 73 and 83, respectively. She boldly claimed they were as passionate as they were in their youth, engaging in lovemaking twice daily. Suzanne humorously noted that she typically slept through one of these encounters, typically the early morning one, but was fully engaged by the second at 8 a.m.
Their evenings often commenced with a romantic dance, and when things heated up, they didn’t always make it to the bedroom, sometimes finding satisfaction at their bar. Suzanne boasted about Alan’s impressive fitness level, attributing it not to her famous As-seen-on-TV products, but rather to their intimate activities. She revealed that Alan considered their amorous endeavors to be his daily cardio workout, one that he found far more enjoyable than a treadmill.
Even injuries couldn’t quell their passion for long. After a hip fracture in early 2020, Suzanne had to abstain from intimacy for six weeks. Yet, she and Alan found creative ways to reignite their passion before she fully recovered. Suzanne playfully remarked that the position they adopted was not suitable for photography. She also shared that injections were aiding in maintaining their spark, specifically testosterone administered to Alan.
In October 2020, Suzanne took to Instagram to inform her fans of another injury, this time to her neck after a fall down the stairs. Despite this setback, Alan didn’t let it deter him from pursuing their morning routine. Suzanne humorously recounted the incident, emphasizing the enduring playfulness and intimacy that defined their relationship.
Suzanne and Alan’s love story is a testament to the enduring power of connection, passion, and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. Their journey together is an inspiration for all who seek enduring love and intimacy in their own lives.
