LaTanya has shared with Essence how she and the "Pulp Fiction" star have kept their marriage all these years and it involves having a mantra that both of them believe and see value in.

She called herself and her husband revolutionaries and that their mantra was based on the thing they believed to be most revolutionary as she said,

"We used to say the most revolutionary thing was to keep a black family together. So that became our mantra."

She also revealed that no matter what happened, she would not "let the sun go down" on her "wrath" and if she needed to, she would grit her teeth and say "goodnight" and "I love you" if they happen to be in a rough spot.

She shared too that you have to have a big heart as men are different. She expressed the value of having "the Lord" especially when you might need to turn to someone or something in hard times during a relationship.
