Justin Timberlake fans, eat your heart out!

The singer’s ever-loving – not to mention, ever gorgeous – actor wife Jessica Biel has opened up their marriage in her latest interview with Marie Claire magazine. And all we can think of while reading what she has to say is, “#relationship goals.”

"We have similar values; we believe in loyalty, honesty," Jessica, 35, told the magazine for its August 2017 issue. "We like to have fun. We like a lot of the same things. Also, in the business, we're all very career-oriented and you have to be a little selfish. I understand that about my peers — about being focused and driven — and if you can find that and someone who shares the same values as you, it's like: Score!"

The happy couple's marriage also works because they have plenty in common. The Can't Stop the Feeling! singer, 36, kicked off his career at a young age, appearing on the TV shows Star Search and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club before joining the boy band 'NSync. Jessica, on the other hand, rose to stardom as a teenager, whilst playing Mary Camden in the popular family drama series 7th Heaven.

"My Hollywood experience as a young person was never one of those True Hollywood stories, where I was left alone to my own devices with no parental supervision," she said of conquering her early years in the industry. "There was always somebody with me."

These days, the Sinner actress and the Grammy winner keep busy with not only their careers, but also their two-year-old son, Silas. "You think you're a selfless person, and then you realise you're not," Jessica replied, when asked to reveal what she has learned from motherhood. "These little people come around, and they require so much, and your schedule is really not your own, nor is it important anymore, and it's very clear that it's your life now revolving around this dude," she continued. "I'm not that person who feels like, 'Oh, my whole life changes for my kid,' but it does."

Jessica and Justin tied the knot back in October 2012 after dating for five years.
