‘Drunk in Love’: Danny DeVito ‘Too Chicken’ to ask On-Again, Off-Again Wife Rhea Perlman to get Back Together
Danny DeVito's pals reportedly think he's 'too chicken' to reconcile with estranged wife Rhea Perlman.
While Danny DeVito is said to still be "drunk in love" with on-again, off-again wife of 42 years Rhea Perlman, he's apparently "too chicken" to ask to get back together — even though pals are reportedly pleading with him to stop being such a coward, RadarOnline.com has learned.
DeVito, 79, and Perlman, 76, began dating in 1971 and tied the knot in 1982.

"He's very coy and cautious on the subject — and the last thing he wants to do is make it awkward and fall at Rhea's feet," the source revealed. "If she wanted to move back in and make a go of things, he'd be back in a flash."
"But there's a feeling among their friends that Danny's too chicken to make the first move."

Perlman recently confessed that she and DeVito 'are still married' and 'very good friends.'
During a recent appearance on Julia Louis-Dreyfus' Wiser Than Me podcast, Perlman confessed, "We are still married. And we are still very good friends and we see each other a lot. And our family is still the most important thing to both of us."
"I'm not gonna sugarcoat it — it was difficult," Perlman said of her on-again, off-again marriage.
"It was very difficult at first. And there were a lot of reasons that we separated, which I'm not gonna go into. But it took time for us to come to this somehow pretty decent understanding and relationship with each other."
