The Gist<\/p>\n

Tina Fey had a message for people who didn’t think that her marriage to Jeff Richmond would last.<\/p>\n

The comedian married the composer in 2001 and shares two daughters with him.<\/p>\n

Fey recently shared the couple’s secret to their long marriage during The Four Seasons season 2 premiere.<\/p>\n

Tina Fey<\/a> has an epic response to people who didn\u2019t believe that her marriage to Jeff Richmond would stand the test of time. Over two decades after saying “I do,” the Mean Girls star<\/a> jokingly clapped back at the naysayers while opening up about her and Richmond\u2019s wedding anniversary plans in a new interview.<\/p>\n

During the Monday, June 1, episode of The Tonight Show<\/a>, host Jimmy Fallon congratulated Fey on the relationship milestone, which falls on June 3. The 30 Rock alum employed her signature wit as she addressed the studio audience. \u201cSo you all were wrong. Everybody who said we weren’t going to make it,\u201d she quipped.<\/p>\n

Fey, who previously agreed with her husband’s assessment of their marriage as \u201cborderline boring\u2014in a good way<\/a>,” detailed how she and the composer celebrated 25 years as husband and wife with a \u201cquiet\u201d extended weekend in Los Angeles complete with plenty of pool time.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid nothing, sat by the pool,\u201d she shared about their plans, joking that the parents-of-two also took full advantage of their child-free weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cWalk around a mall with no kids, not go into Hollister, just do what you want,\u201d she said about the dream weekend, adding, \u201cYou want to look at these wide shoes … for an hour? Do it, do it. This is love.\u201d Fey, who first crossed paths with Richmond when they were both working at Chicago improv hotspot Second City in the \u201890s, shares daughters Alice, 20, and Penelope, 14, with the former Saturday Night Live musical director.<\/p>\n

The comedian<\/a> recently shared her secret to a long marriage<\/a>, telling Entertainment Tonight<\/a> at The Four Seasons<\/a> season 2 premiere on May 20 that she and her husband swear by \u201cseparate bathrooms.\u201d She elaborated, \u201cIf you can afford it, second bathrooms, and if you can\u2019t afford it, one person has to go to McDonalds to use the bathroom.”<\/p>\n
