Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor have long been regarded as one of the most beloved couples in show business. In May, the stars of "American Horror Story" and "Ratched" revealed that although they have been together for nine years, they have never lived together. Now, it appears they have specific reasons for this.

Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor met over 20 years ago. Initially, there was no indication that they would ever be a couple. In 2015, the actresses decided to give each other a chance. Today, they are happy to pose together at events and openly talk about their relationship. Recently, they once again explained why they have never lived together.

Is this the secret of their successful relationship?

"Yeah, we don’t live together. That’s the secret to it, We spend plenty of time together, but we don’t live in the same house," admitted 49-year-old Sarah Paulson on the "SmartLess" podcast. The actress's statement caused a stir in the media. No one suspected that after so many years together, they had not taken this step.

Recently, the stars appeared at the Emmy Awards, where they also gave a few interviews. In a conversation with Entertainment Tonight, Paulson decided to address the topic of living in two homes once again.

- I have to clarify this. We don't live together meaning we don't own a home together, but we're together more often than we are not. It's like we live together, but we don't live together. I think [people] thought we saw each other, like, once a month or something. It's not like that, explained Sarah Paulson.

According to 81-year-old Holland Taylor (recently known from the series "Two and a Half Men"), it is precisely because there is so much variety in their lives that they don't have the chance to get bored with each other.

Why have Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor never lived together?

In the podcast mentioned, Sarah Paulson did not hide that living together is not a priority for them. After all, they are both mature women who have their own habits and dream homes, which are true oases of peace for them.

"Holland has been my absolute rock and has been with me in all of these things for many years and tonight I’m the girl that gets to hold her purse," noted the star.
