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.
Ellen DeGeneres – Married to Portia De Rossi for 15 Years
Ellen has had to deal with many breakups, even the death of a previous girlfriend and we’re so glad that she finally got together with Australian actress Portia De Rossi (from the TV show Arrested Development), and the two eventually got married. Ellen, who we know as the confident stand-up comedian and TV host of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, was surprisingly shy of telling Portia she loved her and it apparently took her 3 years to do so.
After meeting at a party in 2000, they only moved in together in 2005 and wed 3 years later. We love how the media tried to light fires when there were none, as they kept reporting that Ellen and Portia were heading for a divorce. Even if that was true, this happy couple made it through the rough patch, and they turned 15 this year!
