These Famous Celebrity Couples are In It for the Long Haul

Ever so often, we hear that our favorite celebrity couple has broken up or called their divorce lawyers to legally call it quits and it just ruins our day. Think Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Anna Faris and Chris Pratt or Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Of course, it’s a sad event made even worse when family lawyers are involved and the parents fight for the custody of their children.

And yet, there are plenty of stars who have stayed together for a long time and weathered many storms together. Sure, marriage is a gamble, and there are many times when one feels like loading their U-Haul and moving out, but in the end… love wins! That’s why it’s so heartening to hear of long-lasting marriages and relationships, which certainly is not the norm in Hollywood.

Here are some celebrity couples who have us rooting for them.

Kamala Harris – Married to Doug Emhoff for 6 Years

A blind date is such an unsure bet though it turned out somewhat differently for Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff, a former lawyer. After meeting on some night in 2013, they both found a connection they’ve not been able to drop in the last eight years.

Maya, Kamala’s sister, took the honor of officiating their wedding ceremony in 2014, and since then, the couple has consistently thrived. While Harris will make for a fantastic Vice President, Douglas spends his days teaching students at Georgetown University. As modern-day power couples go, we love this dynamic duo.

Joe Biden – Married to Jill Biden for 43 Years

After losing his first wife, Joe Biden wasn’t having it until he was introduced to Jill Biden in 1975 by his brother, who was anxious to get his sibling back out in the world of dating after his tragic loss.

The newly-introduced duo’s relationship started off on the right foot, yet Joe had to propose five times before Jill finally considered and accepted his request. Reportedly it was Joe’s kids from his previous marriage who encouraged their dad to go for Jill. Seeing how happy they are today, we can’t help but cheer for second chances in love.

Bill Clinton – Married to Hillary Clinton for 45 Years

It was within the Yale University walls that Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton met in 1971. The former president immediately saw something he never wanted to part ways with and did the one knee thing. History has is that it took Bill three proposals to win over the ex-Secretary of States, now that’s something!

Four years later, they exchanged marital vows and have since then overcome every single trial that came personally or politically to destroy their marriage. Forty-six today and this duo still look like they just got married. Definitely our kind of couple!
