Summary
#879. Jessie James Decker and Eric Decker are taking us behind the scenes of their wild ride on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test — and trust us, you’ve never seen them like this before. From last-minute casting to surviving with only three pairs of underwear (yes, really), the couple shares the grit, fears, and teamwork that got them through one of the hardest experiences of their lives.
They open up about the challenges of icy water drills, makeshift bathrooms, and what it was like to push each other’s limits on camera. Jessie reveals the moment she realized Eric is the ultimate teammate, while Eric shares the surprising side of Jessie that left him saying, “damn, that’s kinda sexy.” Plus, find out which of their kids demanded they better not come home without finishing the mission.
Beyond the show, Jessie and Eric get candid about 15 years of marriage, the secret values that keep them strong, and even their go-to date night (spoiler: it involves a hot tub). Jessie also teases her Christmas movie debut, new music with Joss Stone, and what’s next for her career. This episode has laughs, tears, and all the unfiltered Decker realness you love.
