AP: You're now a full-time New Yorker. Do you get chased by fewer paparazzi here? Styler: I don't think we get that in either country. I mean, neither of us is spring chickens. We're hardly Brangelina. I think there's a lot of relief that we can get around the city easily. We're unbodyguarded. We have no posse. AP: How do you call your husband at home? Is he Gordon or Sting? Styler: He's known as Sting. I have my own personal name for him but that shall remain a personal name. AP: Has it ever been hard to be married to a superstar? Styler: I've never really had a sense that I am just Mrs. Sting. Indeed, I am Mrs. Sting and very proud and very happy that I am still Mrs. Sting, as opposed to Mrs. ex-Sting. But I'm a very busy person so I've always done things and got on with my life. We're a busy family. We like challenges and we like to be fully engaged with life. I've done that as long as I've been with Sting. AP: You help many charitable causes, from water projects with UNICEF to the Rainforest Fund. How do you pick the projects? Styler: Sting and I were saying last night that we have an awful time saying no to things and that it should be a new, better word for us. But there is a great need for many things and we recognize the great privilege that we have. When we can lend a hand, we do.
AP: You've had a long marriage, especially for a show business couple. Any secrets to that success? Styler: Liking each other is mightily important. Our daughter made a lovely comment once at one of our wedding anniversaries. She said,
'My parents don't just love each other -- they really like each other.' I thought,
'That's a lovely thing to hear.' That is absolutely true. ___ Online:
