Barbra Streisand and her husband James Brolin are proud night owls with a unique sleeping schedule. The couple prefers staying up late and waking up late, for a specific reason.
The iconic performer explained to People: "We go to bed very late, so I'm still in bed [at 2 p.m.]. We have a different schedule. We love the silence of the night."
This isn't the first time the pair has shared insight into their nighttime routine. James previously revealed to People that the secret to their long marriage of almost 30 years, is their "mattress."

Given how booked and busy the pair is, it doesn't come as a surprise that they love indulging in a peaceful evening and waking up later in the day.

The pair celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary on July 1, 2025. They got wed on the same date as their first date.

Barbra recalled the pivotal moment that she first met her husband on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in 2021.
The singer gushed: "We were set up as a blind date and I was so shy that I came into the house, and I went downstairs to be with the children and play with them until I had to sit down at the table."

Despite being shy, Barbra bluntly and hilariously shared her true thoughts with James. She recalled: "I walked by him. I put my hand through his hair and said, 'Who [expletive] up your hair?'"
We're definitely adding having a good sense of humor to their secrets for marriage longevity.
