Celebrities That Are Still Married Today, You Won’t Believe #10

It seems as though nowadays most celebrities have had as many spouses as they have feature films. But on rare occasions, there are duos who give us hope that there are celebrity marriages that will last. Here is a list of celebrities that are still married to this day.

Meryl and Don met in a slightly unconventional way. Meryl's previous partner, John Cazale, had just passed away and Don lent her his apartment to stay in.

In 1978, when Don and Meryl married, she reportedly said, “I haven't gotten over John's death, but I've got to go on living and Don has shown me how to do that.”

2. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson-34 Years

These two first crossed paths when Bacon was doing a play in the 70's.

A decade later, they worked together on the film Lemon Sky.

Sedgwick said at first that Bacon wasn't her type, and even went so far as to say, “I vividly remember looking at his butt when he walked away after we first met and thought, ‘Well, I guess some girls like that.'”

However, she seemed to have a change of heart, as the pair wed in 1988.

Curtis admits in a sweet confession that she knew she could marry Guest as soon as she saw him. The twist is that the first time she ever saw him was in a magazine.

“Debra Hill and I were flipping through a Rolling Stone magazine when I turned to a photograph of three men. I looked at the man on the right, wearing a plaid shirt and a waggish smirk. I'd never seen him before, but I pointed at him. ‘I'm going to marry that man', I said to my friend.”

Hill knew Guest's agent and shared Curtis' number with them, but Guest never called.

At that time, Curtis actually began casually dating someone else. After dropping him off at the airport and saying her final goodbye, she headed to a Hollywood restaurant for dinner.

Chris was sitting three tables away. He waved at her, she waved at him, and then he got up to leave. He waved again with a gesture that seemed to say “see you around.”

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are one of the most famous Hollywood couples. They started dating while Will was still married to his ex-wife. Jada and Shere Zampino co-mothered in the early years and Jada was introduced to the concept of a blended family.

Their relationship has had many ups and downs, and they even split up once. At this time, Jada had her famed “entanglement” with August Alsina.

Despite these difficulties, though, divorce was never an option for either of them, and they have stayed strong since.
