Adam Brody Reveals Bathroom Secret That Helps Leighton Meester Romance

Adam Brody admitted that having separate bathrooms might be the secret to his decade-long marriage with Leighton Meester, joking that “it’s nice.”

Adam Brody and Leighton Meester are flush with ideas for a successful relationship.

The Nobody Wants This star shared what he thinks has helped his 10-year long marriage to the Gossip Girl alum: using different bathrooms.

“We have de facto separate toilets,” Adam explained to Access Hollywood on the red carpet at the 2025 Golden Globes Jan. 5. “I go in the office—it’s nice.”

The 45-year-old—who shares daughter Arlo, 9, and a 4-year-old son, whose name has never been publicly shared, with Leighton—added, “Get one layer farther away from the kids. One layer more deep with privacy.”

While Adam has clearly given plenty of thought to loo-lore, Leighton admitted, “I have put no thought into the toilet situation whatsoever.”

And although the two try to keep some parts of their life separate, working together is clearly not something they shy away from. Adam and Leighton have shared the screen multiple times, including in The OrangesSingle Parents and River Wildand they are happy to keep doing so.

“We always like to work together when it comes up,” Adam said during Live From E!: Golden Globes. And as Leighton added, “It comes up a lot.”

“It’s true,” Adam continued. “Almost everything we do, they’re like, ‘Would your husband or wife want to be in this as well?”

The couple noted they don’t have any projects on the horizon at the moment, although the O.C. alum added, “We should come up with something that we want to do together.”

After all, Adam and Leighton know how fortunate they are to have found one another—and to have a relationship that has survived over a decade in Hollywood.

“We’re super, super lucky, and I think we recognize how lucky we are with one another,” Leighton told E! News in 2023. “We give each other a lot of respect and time and attention and focus. Like, really put our time and energy into a relationship.”
