"We work on it together, we try our best, nobody's perfect. I would be lying to you if I said that either she or I were. She's more perfect than I am, I can tell you that," he continued.
"We do our best. She's committed. She's as committed as I am. We work together, we have three great kids."
During his speech he thanked their three little ones, Violet, 7, Seraphina, 4, and Sam, 1.
"I don't know how I got to the place where I had three kids at this point," the proud dad said.

Before taking the stage after winning the Best Picture award, Ben was also floored by First Lady Michelle Obama's surprise Oscars appearance -- via satellite -- when she helped announce the night's big winner.
"I thought I was like hallucinating, like a pink elephant was going to come in... Michelle Obama? Is she going to read it?" he recalled with a laugh. "She read it out and I was like, 'Does that mean I win? Or is that just the Michelle Obama Awards?'"
