    Freddie Prinze Jr. has insisted it isn't "hard" to avoid the limelight

    The 48-year-old actor - who has children Charlotte, 15, and 12-year-old Rocky with wife Sarah Michelle Gellar - admitted he and his spouse have tried to lead their lives as privately as possible "by choice" and have been able to "control" how much attention they've received during their 22-year marriage


    Freddie appeared on the 'Oldish' podcast, where co-host Randy Spelling noted: "Something that I've admired about your relationship is you both have seemed to stay out of the public."

    His guest replied: "That's by choice, though. You can control it to a certain degree...

    "I don't know how deliberate [others] are in trying to avoid that BS. I know how easy it's been for us because I don't go anywhere. I don't go to parties. People don't see Sarah and I out and about at the popular places.

    "We have our restaurants that we like, and they're not super trendy in places where paparazzi hang out. So we're good at avoiding it."

    The 'She's All That' actor stressed he wasn't "trying to s*** on anyone" but he and his wife felt avoiding such attention was "not that hard if you really" want to stay clear of it.

    The couple have adopted tactics such as waiting for their more famous neighbours to go out before leaving their home.

    He said: "There's times where [paparazzi] wait at the bottom of our street, but there's people that are way more famous than me on my street.

    "So I'll just make sure they leave first. They'll go follow Schwarzenegger and leave me alone. You know what I mean?

    "There's no secret to it, and it wasn't hard. We just don't like that life. You know?"

    Freddie also pointed out the 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' actress "grew up in New York" and "experienced everything before she was 21 years old, like nightclubs and all that stuff."

    By contrast, he added to co-host Brian Austin Green: "And I can count on one hand how many clubs I've been [to] my whole life. One was with you. They had live music though, it was cool."
