Jenny McCarthy, Donnie Wahlberg Married: Couple Hints “Oversharing’ On New Reality Show, But Encourage Fans To Have ‘Open Minds’ [VIDEO]
They're known for sharing tons of details about their personal lives-and Donnie Wahlberg and Jenny McCarthy definitely don't plan to hold back on their new reality show, Donnie Loves Jenny.
Jenny McCarthy Calls Herself The 'Dumbest Girl' If She Screws Up Her Marriage
In an appearance on Entertainment Tonight, the couple, who married in August 2013, admitted they might have overshared a bit on their show, but admit that it was a result of just seeing where life would take them.
"We might get close to oversharing," Wahlberg admitted while on the show. "We've definitely taken some interesting turns in the last few months. We've basically just taken real life scenarios and just jumped in and saw where they took us."

The couple also talked about the new show with US Weekly, where they encouraged fans to watch the show with an open mind, because they will likely be surprised by the things they learn about them in the process of watching.
"I think people are going to be really surprised at how freakin' hilarious Donnie is," McCarthy told the magazine. "I mean, when I started dating him, I was like, 'Oh my gosh, he is brilliantly funny!' So I'm glad people will get a chance to see that in him."
And though the couple knows many believe they will fall victim to the perceived "reality show" curse, they don't think it's something they need to worry about.
"We went into this show saying, okay, there's nothing salacious that's going to happen because we don't have fights," McCarthy said. "We're very god about doing coping tools to kind of maneuver through anything that people might fight [about] so I'm not worried because everything we're doing is us, and us is in the nicest vibration we always are in. And hopefully, people will respond to that and not need crazy."
"We're not really worried about [the reality TV curse]...we always say reality TV shows don't break up couples, couples break up couples," Wahlberg added.
