Ice-T admitted “jungle sex” is what keeps his marriage to Coco Austin fresh.
“That flame has to stay lit,” the rapper-turned-actor shared on the red carpet of the “Law & Order: SVU” 25th anniversary special (via Daily Mail).
“When that flame goes out and you’re not really attracted to each other anymore, you have to address that very quickly because it’s something that’s necessary.”
But Ice-T, whose real name is Tracy Marrow, said approaching marriage as a partnership is the real secret to their success.
“We have to be teammates, not opponents, not assets, not liabilities,” he said, referring to Austin.
“I value what she brings to me, and I think it’s vice versa. We appreciate each other.”
Austin, 44, and Ice-T, 65, met in 2001 on the set of a music video and married in Las Vegas some months later.
They welcomed their daughter, Chanel, in 2015. The “New Jack Hustler” rapper also is dad to daughter LeTesha Marrow, 47, whom he shares with his high school girlfriend, Adrienne, and son Tracy Marrow Jr., 32, with ex Darlene Ortiz.

Austin frequently comes under fire over her parenting of Chanel, 8, but consistently hits back at the “hypocrites.”
“They’re like, on me,” Austin previously told Page Six, “but the thing is, everybody’s a hypocrite I feel because they do certain weird things in their house.”
Parenting trolls dragged the OnlyFans model for bathing Chanel in a sink and pushing her around in a stroller despite her age.
“I don’t think that bathing my daughter in the sink is weird. If I have a huge-ass sink, why not? It’s just easier for me,” she said,
“And if I have to carry her everywhere and it’s just easier to bring a stroller, why not? She’s petite, she’s super small, and it’s easier.”
