"Sex is not the key to a happy marriage-Salma Hayek

"Sex is not the key to a happy marriage, but it's a side effect. Although not every day! If it's every day then it loses its charm. It's so important to maintain your chemistry.You have to continue to laugh, continue to explore, continue to have fun with each other, continue to have romance."
The Oscar-nominated actress, she says she's most proud of her personal life, she continued

"A good marriage, full of love, is my biggest accomplishment. Home is where my husband is," she continues. "He is home. Everything outside of the family nucleus is an adventure that you're living together."

As for how she keeps it steamy in the bedroom, Hayek explains that it's important to feel sexy, which sometimes can be difficult when feeling insecure.
"Even though I struggle every moment with my own judgment of my body, I'm in touch with myself. I try to be really aware of every muscle. It is sexy," "Sexuality, what other people see in you, is enjoying your body. Involve your senses in your life, and you will become sexy. Dance, and not to look good. If you dance terribly, still dance."It might in the moment not look sexy, but this interaction with life makes you sexy. And even if you're on a diet, enjoy your food—please! It's a very Latin point of view."
