Bono's wife Ali Hewson has lifted the lid on their 23-year marriage and declared: "He's the love of my life because he makes me follow my dreams."

Ali, who met Bono in school when she was 12, said: "Our marriage has worked because we like each other, because we talk to each other and we are passionate about what we do. We allow each other to pursue our goals."

The mother-of-four revealed it isn't writing No1 albums and selling out world tours that motivates the couple -- but bringing up their kids to appreciate life.

She is determined their children, Jordan, 15, Eve, 13, Elijah, five, and three-year-old John Abraham are not spoiled by the trappings of fame.
