They're a hot Hollywood couple, and now it's your chance to find out how Holly Robinson Peete and Rodney Peete really live. As the latest Oprah & Friends hosts, Holly and Rodney say they're excited to share their experiences as a couple and as parents of four children.

Holly, an actress, and Rodney, a former NFL quarterback, say they may be famous, but they've got the same hopes and dreams for their family and children as any other couple does. They've been married for 12 years, something Holly says takes a lot of work. "We are honest, and we talk to each other in such a way that we always make sure we are on the same page," she says.

Parenting four children, one of whom has autism, also takes strength and patience, but Rodney says the Peetes are an open book when it comes to their family life. "There is no question that we won't answer, won't deal with," he says. "We don't have all the answers, but we are trying to find them."

From their family and careers to their love of travel and their charitable foundation HollyRod (dedicated to those suffering with Parkinson's disease), the Peetes are busy people, but they say their daily radio show is going to be a great time for them to get together and chat. "This is going to be that mandatory hour … [a time] when we are able to connect to each other, and I think a lot great things will come from that," Holly says.
