Cate Blanchett, who won the best actress award at the 71st Golden Globe Awards, says she feels "lucky" to have a good marriage.
The 'Blue Jasmine' star is married to theatre director Andrew Upton and believes working in same industry doesn't make their life difficult, reported Contactmusic.
"I don't think it's more difficult for actors to have a good marriage than anyone," the 44-year-old actress said.
"I think in the end a really important component of any relationship is honesty - and it also comes back to luck," she said.
The actress who has three kids Dashiell, 12, Roman, 9, and Ignatius, 5 from her 16-year-old marriage to Upton, feels she is fortunate to have an 'amazing husband like him.
"I'm incredibly fortunate to have met the intelligent, generous, risk-taking, stimulating man to whom I am married. He's really amazing," she said.
The Australian actress also said that she does not carry her work to home and spends good time with her kids.
"I don't take my work home - my children are not interested in me bringing home the characters I play.
"My boys are great kids, hilariously funny. We laugh a lot when we're at home," Blanchett said.
