According to the talk show queen, their choice to not marry is what kept them together.

As she explained in the September 2017 issue of “Vogue:”

“The only time I brought it up was when I said to Stedman, ‘What would have happened if we had actually gotten married?’ And the answer is: ‘We wouldn’t be together.’ We would not have stayed together, because marriage requires a different way of being in this world. His interpretation of what it means to be a husband and what it would mean for me to be a wife would have been pretty traditional, and I would not have been able to fit into that.”

The two talked marriage in the past — Graham even proposed in the 90s — but ultimately decided that not getting married was right for them.
