Married people live in suburbs all over the place. What's the big deal, right? Well, most married people aren't commuting more than 800 miles to and from work a couple times a week, so that's pretty strange. On an episode of Live with Kelly and Michael (via the Chicago Tribune), Donnie Wahlberg laid out the couple's hectic schedule. "We fly in (to New York) Sunday nights; we work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and then we fly out, usually Wednesday night, but we live in the real main street USA of like, western Illinois," he said. And he's not kidding, they are bonafide suburbanites. In fact, they have a running joke about loving Applebee's that apparently became so popular the restaurant chain even offered to host their wedding.

So, since they've got the depressing Saturday night dinner down, they also dove headfirst into banal married life by religiously watching — and crying over — The Bachelor, and by McCarthy sending Wahlberg out to buy tampons. This is the kind of stuff normal couples do, because they don't have the option of employing live-in chefs or personal feminine hygiene shoppers, so why does a TV star and his former centerfold wife have to do it? 

The column Donnie writes for Splash offers a clue. "Fame is a very fortunate blessing, no matter how challenging life in a fish bowl may be. Fame is a privilege. It is not a right," he wrote, eventually simplifying his message to, "My dad once told me, when I was an aspiring musician as a teenager, 'Son, there's a term for awful behavior. It's called being an a**hole. Don't be one.'" You're weird, Donnie, and we don't need to hear about your sex life anymore, but that is a pretty cool sentiment right there.
