Maury Povich and Connie Chung Hint at Spicy ‘Sunday Funday’ Tradition
Veteran television personalities Maury Povich and Connie Chung, married for decades, seemingly offered a glimpse into their personal life, suggesting a playful end-of-week ritual during the debut episode of Povich’s new podcast, “On Par with Maury Povich.” In the initial installment of the podcast, released recently, the couple’s banter ignited speculation regarding their weekend activities.
Podcast Debut Sparks Intrigue
On the inaugural episode of “On Par with Maury Povich,” Chung served as the first guest. During a lighthearted segment, she posed a question to her husband, prompting him to complete the phrase: “I feel sexiest when?”
Initially appearing slightly puzzled by the premise, Povich sought clarification from Chung as to whether she intended to answer or if he was expected to respond.
Upon understanding the query, the former “Maury” host declared, “I feel sexiest on Sundays,” punctuating his statement with a chuckle directed at Chung, followed by boisterous laughter, seemingly indicative of a shared joke between the pair.
‘Never on Sunday’ – A Playful Response
Chung responded with a suggestive “Never on Sunday,” implying a double entendre and adding to the intrigue surrounding their Sunday interactions.
Povich playfully countered, “Not in OUR house!” further emphasizing the significance of Sundays in their relationship and hinting at an established weekend custom.
“It’s always been. Everybody says, ‘Can we play golf on Sunday? Nope. Sunday is with Connie,'” the renowned TV personality affirmed with a broad smile, highlighting the priority he places on spending Sundays with his wife.
Chung reacted to her husband’s jovial declaration with a coy chuckle, miming locking her lips with a key, further cementing the playful mystery surrounding their “Sunday Funday” and intimate connection.
Decades of Marriage, Hints of Intimacy
While the celebrated couple refrained from explicitly detailing the specifics of their Sunday tradition, podcast listeners were left to interpret their suggestive exchanges. The pair, married since 1984, have enjoyed a relationship spanning forty years.
Public Reaction Mixed
Online responses to the couple’s suggestive banter varied. One commentator remarked, “They’re a great couple and happily married. Good for them!” expressing positive sentiment regarding their relationship.
Conversely, some reactions were less favorable. “Just plain gross,” one individual retorted, while another added, “Leave it, no one wants to know,” indicating some discomfort with the perceived oversharing of personal details.
Povich Explains Podcast Intentions
Povich recently articulated the rationale behind launching his podcast venture.
The veteran broadcaster disclosed that his aim was to reveal his authentic personality to the public, particularly after decades in television known for sensational content and paternity revelations.
In a published interview, Povich stated, “For the past 30 plus years, everybody has thought of me as a kind of a talk show host who [discusses] certain themes.” He acknowledged his successful career in television, attributing it to his journalistic background and storytelling abilities honed in news and traditional talk show formats.
Povich further elaborated, “If I was sitting at a desk back anchoring a newscast, I would never unveil myself. And so this is, I think, a perfect medium,” emphasizing the podcast as a platform for personal expression.
