They’re back in session.
Judge Judy Sheindlin made a rare comment on her 1990 divorce from her husband, Jerry Sheindlin, in a new interview.
“That’s a long story, but the end of the story is: I found … that most men were alike,” the “Judy Justice” star said on “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?” Friday when asked why she remarried the “People’s Court” alum in 1991.
Judge Judy Sheindlin reflected on her 1990 divorce from husband Jerry Sheindlin. Max The couple wed in 1978 and separated 12 years later, only to say “I do” again in 1991.
“They have basic needs that are different from women’s,” she elaborated. “They like to be fed. They like to be cuddled. They like to have their alone time that you take out the alone box and leave [them] alone. And if you feed ’em and love ’em up a little bit and don’t get in their way too much, they’re happy.”
As for the secret to her decades-long marriage, Judy candidly shared that she still finds Jerry hot.
“He takes wonderful care of himself,” she enthused. “And I sort of like it, because he maintains that physique that I fell in love with 48 years ago.”

The “Judge Judy” star, 81, also raved that the former New York Supreme Court trial judge, 90, “still has a sense of humor” and is “still really smart and sharp.”
“We’re together a lot,” she said on the Max talk show. “Jerry retired about 20 years ago, but he has his own thing.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then wed Jerry in 1978 and became a stepmother to his three kids from a previous marriage: sons Gregory Sheindlin, 60, and Jonathan Sheindlin, 57, and daughter Nicole Sheindlin, 56.
The couple divorced after 12 years of marriage over the stress Judy endured from the death of her father, Murray Blum. However, they said “I do” again just months later.
“I missed her presence the very first week that we were separated,” Jerry recalled in Marlo Thomas and Phil Donahue’s 2020 book, “What Makes a Marriage Last.”
“It was the first time in years that we didn’t get to see each other every single day,” he continued. “It was such a strange experience.”
