Courteney Cox loves being a "cougar." The 45-year-old star - who husband David Arquette is eight years her junior - enjoys being married to a younger man and thinks the age gap enhances their relationship.

Courtney - who is starring in new comedy "Cougar Town" - said: "David is much younger than me. I think it's great to be a cougar, if that's what they're called. I just don't know what the term is for a man who dates a younger woman."

Courteney Cox insists her marriage has never been better. The former "Friends" actress - who has been plagued by constant rumors her 10-year union to David Arquette is in trouble - says she is enjoying every aspect of her life and never imagined she could be so happy.

Courtney - who has a five-year-old daughter Coco with David - said: "I can honestly say that I have the best marriage, the best husband and the best daughter. They are the things that have given me real happiness - so much more than anything else. I don't think I ever thought I would end up as happy as I am today."

Courteney Cox's husband has launched a fashion line - because she hates his clothes. Actor David Arquette - who has teamed up with singer Ben Harper and David Bedwell to launch Propr - consulted Courteney about the designs because she is always telling him to wear something "more attractive."

David explained: "We see what jeans she likes - we look at different jeans and fits. She wanted me to wear a jean that's tighter. My butt always hangs out of my clothes, so she wanted something a little more attractive."
