Patrick Dempsey and his wife have got intimate in his $1 million sports car

He shared to Access Hollywood: "She drives a Targa. She looks very sexy and very hot in the Targa ... This [Porsche] is a great car, so you can have a really good time in these cars. You have to be creative, but you can do it."

His revelation comes soon after he admitted it was communication and "lots of sex" that got the couple's relationship back on track.

He shared: "You've got to keep at it. You've got to communicate, and stay open and not get lazy. And not give up. And lots of sex! Our marriage was not something I was prepared to let go of. I didn't feel like we had done all the work. And we both wanted to do that work. That's where it started.

"You can only do one thing at a time and do it well. I [learned] to prioritise. Our union has to be the priority. I wasn't prepared to give up on her and she wasn't either. We both wanted to fight for it. Everybody has their own path. Jill and I decided it was time to work on our issues and improve. We wanted to be role models for our kids like, okay, if you have differences, you can work it out."

Jillian initially filed for divorce from Patrick - with whom she has twins Darby and Sullivan, nine, and Tallula, 14 - in January 2015 but they have now officially called off the split after working through their marriage difficulties.

He explained: "The support my wife has given me has allowed us to blossom as a couple and a family. Without her, my career would not be where it is today. My heart told me [not to give up]."
