There’s something exciting about following celebrity couples. Therapists say it’s natural to admire celebrity couples because the public feels like these people are a part of their lives.
We have to admit that celebrities sometimes set a great example by showing us that it is possible to stay in love for many decades, even if there are difficulties along the way.
We are huge fans of true love, so we would love to share with you some photos of 6 lifelong couples and their love stories.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban: 16 years
The relationship between Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise may still be fresh in fans’ minds, but they have been divorced for over 20 years.
Kidman met her second husband, Keith Urban, for the first time in 2005, and the couple married shortly thereafter in 2006. They have two daughters together.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds: 10 years
A decade may not sound all that impressive, but think about it: the couple had started dating before the hit show Gossip Girl, in which Lively played the title character, ended.
To this day, the happy couple shares hilarious moments from their lives with their followers.
Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn: 38 years old
The couple met on Valentine’s Day in 1983 and have been inseparable ever since. Interestingly, they never married. Both Russell and Hawn were already divorced when they began their relationship, so they felt the marriage “cemented the relationship”.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson: 33 years
They co-starred twice: in 1981 and in 1984. Tom Hanks was a married man at the time, but he described his marriage as one that was already hopelessly broken. However, she did not want her children to grow up in a broken home, so she continued to maintain the marriage.
Things changed when Rita Wilson came on the scene: the couple married in 1988 and are still together today.
Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham: 35 years
When they met, Oprah Winfrey was in a relationship with another man, but they say she broke up with him as soon as she met Stedman Graham.
The couple got engaged 6 years after they began their relationship in 1986, but never married, saying that getting married only complicates things.
Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan: 33 years
The couple met on a movie set twice before becoming an official couple. They were married in 1988. Just 3 years after they were married, Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and began to develop harmful coping mechanisms due to the diagnosis.
However, Pollan helped him accept his condition and not do self-destructive things.
Which couple do you consider to be the goal of the relationship?
