Sting and Trudie Styler have been together for nearly 30 years and married for 18, but still call one another their greatest indulgence and say the bedroom is still rockin'!

"Romantic? We like tawdry," Sting, 59, tells Harper's Bazaar magazine of his relationship with Trudie, 57. "Relationships aren't easy, and I don't think they're particularly natural, but we're lucky because we actually like each other. We love each other--that's a given--but Trudie lights my world up when she comes into a room. I don't take her for granted." He adds, "I could lose her. He'd have to be very rich and very handsome, but ..."

The two weren't shy about talking about their sex life, with Sting disclosing to the magazine, "I don't think pedestrian sex is very interesting. There's a playfulness we have; I like the theater of sex. I like to look good. I like her to dress up. I like to dress her up."

Sting says of their lifestyle, "We're epicureans; we believe in the good life."
