Celebrity Power Couples
Published
6 years agoon
They say that two heads are better than one, and that certainly seems to be the case for celebrity couples. While they’re pretty awesome on their own, there’s something about the love and sparks floating between two talented, rich, and famous individuals that just puts a spring in our step.
Whether they’ve been together for a few months, a few years, or a few decades, these celebrity power couples have made their way into the realm of legends. The only issue we have is that we can’t decide which couple is our favorite…
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith
Ok, so these two are a little less traditional than some of the other celebrity couples we know, but there’s no doubt about the fact that they come together to make one giant super force. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith got hitched in 1997 and have since welcomed three hugely talented children into the world. Despite the fact that their marriage has been hit by some rather strange rumors and claims, the couple maintains that they love each other dearly. In fact, in their eyes, they are “life partners.”
Beyonce and Jay-Z
These guys don’t really need an introduction, but we’ll give them one anyway. Beyonce and Jay-Z are arguably some of the biggest names in the music world, and they became instant icons as soon as the human race learned that they were dating. Their reign became even more apparent in 2008 when they became husband and wife, and it intensified even more when they welcomed their children into the world. Despite the fact that they like to keep their lives away from the limelight, nobody can deny that these guys have got it going on.
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner
If you’re the kind of person that slides into the DMs of your crush, you’ll know how giddy it makes you feel when they respond. We can only assume that’s how Joe Jonas felt when Sophie Turner replied to his DM, because he has made no secret of the fact that he is absolutely besotted with his English rose. They’ve since tied the knot, and it seems as though they really are a match made in heaven. In Sophie’s eyes, his energy and his positivity perfectly balance her pessimism and her casual grumpiness – and we all love balance.
John Legend and Chrissy Teigen
If there was an award for the funniest couple on social media, then we have a feeling that John Legend and Chrissy Teigen would be the winners. While these two spend their days roasting each other and creating all kinds of hilarious content together – yes, we really did watch the marriage of their daughters’ dolls with tears in our eyes – they have also shown us that they really do love each other. In fact, did you know that John Legend’s hit song, “All of Me” was written about Chrissy? That’s enough to make anyone weak at the knees.
George Clooney and Amal Clooney
He was one of the most eligible bachelors in Hollywood, and she was a human rights lawyer who lived out of the limelight. For many people, it was a strange match. For George and Amal Clooney, however, it was the ultimate match made in heaven. These two tied the knot – and broke the hearts of countless men and women who hoped to woo over Clooney at some point in their lives – in 2014, and just a few years later, they became parents to their adorable twins. They’re now more perfect than ever, and we didn’t even think that possible.
Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick
While most people assumed that Sarah Jessica Parker would eventually fall in love with her on-screen “Mr.Big,” it seems as though there is only one man for her. The actress and her husband, Matthew Broderick, have been silently showing the world that they are one of the most elite power couples within the celebrity world, as they have been married for almost three decades. While the press has often tried to find cracks in their marriage, it seems as though they’re as seamless as they come. In fact, they have both maintained that it was love at first sight.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds
If we could switch bodies with a celebrity couple for the day, these guys would definitely be high on our list of contenders. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are some of the coolest cats in the business, and it certainly helps that they are both beautiful in every way. These two first laid eyes on each other in 2010 when they appeared alongside each other in the movie-flop-that-shall-not-be-named, also called Green Lantern. While they were both taken at the time, they got together a year later and tied the knot in 2012. They’ve been adorable ever since.
David Beckham and Victoria Beckham
Despite the fact that the whole universe seems to want to break them up, the Beckhams are stronger than ever – so take that, haters. David and Victoria Beckham have been on an incredible journey together since making it official in 1999, and it seems as though this soccer legend and this singer/fashion designer will be together for eternity. They have an incredible family, they have ridiculously successful careers, and they have the honor of being Posh and Becks for the rest of their lives. That sounds like a pretty good deal.
Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet
When Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet made their mark as the newest celebrity couple on the block, we soon realized that everything was right in the world. How couldn’t everything be perfect when two of the most gorgeous-looking people fall in love? The couple first met at a jazz club back in 2005, and despite the backlash that they received over the fact that Lisa is a little bit older than her hubby, they knew that they were made for each other. They got hitched in 2017, and they have been perfect ever since. Yes, we love them.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian
Yes, you probably saw this one coming. On their own, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are true forces to be reckoned with. He’s a rapper, fashion designer, and leader of his very own church, and she’s the most famous reality star that this world has ever seen. While some people couldn’t believe it when they got together, their six-year marriage is a true testament to the love that they have for each other. Sure, people have always got something to say about these guys, but when does Hollywood not have something to say?
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez
Yep, this power couple is back, and right off the heels of Lopez and former MLB star Alex Rodriguez calling it quits. While it may come as a surprise, fans probably aren’t shocked considering these two were also engaged previously, and their breakup was a curveball most didn’t see coming back then. They’re happy once again, and have plans of moving in together.
Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor
It’s no secret that Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor’s relationship was met with some speculation. However, they have proved time and time again that age is just a number, and that it really doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks of them. Despite the 32-year age gap, the couple started dating in 2015, and they have since showcased their love to the world with some of the most glamorous red carpet shots you have ever seen. They are two legends in one incredible sandwich, and we don’t think we could love these two any more if we tried.
Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell
Could these guys be any cuter? We think not. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell may not be married, but they have proved to everyone over the course of their 37-year relationship that they have what it takes to survive in the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Not only are they smitten themselves, but they have also showcased their incredible family to the rest of the world. Their blended family includes the likes of Kate Hudson, Oliver Hudson, and Wyatt Russell. That’s one talented family right there.
Lee and Faith Majors
Faith is Lee Majors’ fourth wife, and although they share quite a bit of an age difference, it hasn’t stopped their marriage from flourishing and becoming a model for other Hollywood elites. The “Six Million Dollar Man” met his wife at a dinner party in Florida after his previous wife, passed away from cancer, and they’ve been going strong for nearly 25 years now. With their savviness amongst the pop culture space, they’re sure to continue dominating the couples game.
Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin-Bieber
We probably don’t need to tell you that this relationship came with raised eyebrows. In most people’s eyes, Justin Bieber was going to get back with Selena Gomez, and we were all going to live happily ever after. However, Hailey Baldwin soon threw a curveball into the mix, and they quickly became one of the biggest celebrity power couples in Hollywood. These two certainly embarked on a whirlwind romance, and it seems as though they are both smitten. In JB’s words, Hailey is the love of his life, and he wouldn’t want to spend it with anyone else.
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen
He’s the football star, and she’s the supermodel, and we don’t think you could get a better match than that. Although there’s no doubt about the fact that these two started off on the wrong foot – especially because Tom discovered that his ex was pregnant just two months into their relationship – they have proved to everyone that they’ve got what it takes to score a touchdown. They’ve been married since 2009, and they have since welcomed two children into the world. Plus, Gisele is a great stepmother to Brady’s other child.
Cardi B and Offset
They’re both huge names in the rap world, and while their relationship has been met with some serious drama, they have proved that true love conquers all. The couple started dating in 2017, and Cardi was quick to speak out about her new man. She noted that it was a “blessing” to meet him when she did and that seeing him and his friends work so hard motivated her to pursue her own career even harder. The couple has since welcomed a daughter into the world, and they seem to have a truly unique relationship.
Emily Blunt and John Krasinski
If Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are looking for a new best friend, then we’ll totally volunteer as tribute. What’s so incredible about these two is that you can tell that they genuinely love each other, and they push each other to be the best they can possibly be. This came as a surprise to John, though, as he was always told that he should steer clear of entering into a relationship with another actor. However, it seems as though he just couldn’t deny how perfect Emily was, and they have now been married for a whole decade.
Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher
If you’re not familiar with the life and times of Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, then let us give you a little lesson. These guys first laid eyes on each other when they were teenagers on the set of That ‘70s Show, and everyone knows that their characters had one of the greatest on-and-off love stories that television has ever seen. They were each other’s first kiss, and everyone hoped that they would get together. However, they both went their separate ways before rekindling their love in 2012. Then, they got hitched in 2015 and made their love official.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson
Rita Wilson has got more than a friend in Tom Hanks, that’s for sure. These two actors reign supreme as one of the OG celebrity power couples, as these guys have been married since 1988 – and nothing can bring them down. These two have supported each other through every single up and down, and they even survived a brutal quarantine together after they were struck down with coronavirus. They’re adorable, and it’s clear to see that these two love each other so much. Hanks once noted that he “got lucky, she could have done better.”
Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian
It’s not often that the world is left stumped, but that was certainly the case when we learned that tennis legend Serena Williams was dating Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian. It seemed like a strange pairing at the time, but when we saw them together, well, we just knew it was something special. Both Serena and Alexis are each other’s biggest fans, and there’s nothing we love more than watching Alexis holding their daughter at the side of the tennis court and cheering mommy on. It makes our hearts hurt every single time.
Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka
When it comes to making us fall in love with them, Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka are just as talented as they are when it comes to their Halloween outfits. While David, a professional chef and actor, was publicly out when they started dating in 2004, they soon got together and fell madly in love with each other. They both asked each other to get hitched in 2006, but this news didn’t reach our ears until five years later. We will forgive the secrecy, though, because these two really are the epitome of celebrity power couples.
Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner
It’s easy to assume that celebs will fall in love with other celebs who work in the same business as them, but for many, this isn’t the case at all. After all, Karlie Kloss is one of the most famous models that this world has ever seen, and Joshua Kushner is the heir to the Kushner real estate dynasty. These two couldn’t have been more different if they tried, but it seems as though it’s these differences that thrust them together and allowed them to experience their undying love. They’ve been married since 2018, and they’re pretty adorable.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry
We’re just gonna address the elephant in the room here. Yes, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have caused the greatest scandal to ever hit the Royal Family – but they did it for love, right? That definitely allows them a place in the realm of celebrity power couples. When these two got together, nobody quite knew what was going on. As an English prince, royalists expected him to wed a rich socialite from high society. However, he soon found love with a divorced American actress, and it actually seems to work.
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard
She’s the adorable Disney princess, and he’s the rough and ready actor, but weirdly, these two work like clockwork. They do say opposites attract, after all. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard first met in 2007, and they soon realized that they had very different opinions of the world. However, that was what brought them together, and that’s what kept them together since. While they may be super famous and super-rich, these guys like to keep it real – especially when it comes to the struggles of raising children. Their social media posts are spot on in that respect.
Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade
Although many of the relationships on this list started off as a fairytale, things weren’t quite as plain sailing for Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade. When they first laid eyes on each other in 2006, Gabrielle had just gone through a divorce, and Wade was still in a struggling marriage. While they knew that they had a connection, there were too many things standing in their way – no less the fact that Wade was nine years younger than the actress. Despite everything, they soon found their way back to each other to become one of Hollywood’s greatest power couples.
Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes
Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes are two of the most famous actors that this world has ever seen, but sometimes it’s easy to forget that these two actually come as a duo. After all, they’ve been together since 2011, but they rarely head out in public, and they don’t often speak about their relationship with the press. It seems as though this works in their favor, though, as this allows them to keep their love to themselves without anyone getting involved. Their relationship and their two children seem to be all that they need in this world.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
Not only are these guys engaged, but they also have a baby on the way, so it really does seem as though Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have got their ducks in a row. What’s so incredible about these two is that they have dated in the past, and their history has been very on-and-off over the years. However, by the time February 2019 came around, Orlando knew that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with the pop sensation, so he asked for her hand in marriage on Valentine’s Day.
Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham
In the words of Oprah Winfrey… You get to be a celebrity power couple, you get to be a celebrity power couple, and you get to be a celebrity power couple! While many people assume that Oprah Winfrey is a lone wolf who simply marvels in her own majesty every single day, she does have a man at home. She has been with Stedman Graham since 1986, and these two have proved to the world that you don’t have to abide by convention. They’re not married, and they don’t feel like they have to be.
Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault
Although there’s no doubt about the fact that Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault are a celebrity power couple – after all, she’s a Hollywood heartthrob, and he’s a fashion mogul – not much is known about how they met, or their relationship as a whole. These two prefer to keep their love under wraps, and we don’t really blame them for that. However, Salma has noted that their path to love is “such a romantic, amazing story,” but that it is her story to keep. So, we’ll just have to marvel at how wonderful they look together instead.
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas
The fact that there’s a big age difference between Catherine Zeta-Jones and her husband, Michael Douglas, has been going around Hollywood like a stuck record since they got married. However, we think it’s about time that people let that go – especially because they have now been married for two decades. This couple first met in 1998, and while they briefly separated back in 2013, they are now back together and stronger than they have ever been before. After all, life in the limelight can be tough on everyone, and even these two.
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi
When you think of Ellen DeGeneres, you immediately think of Portia by her side, right? These two are inseparable, and it’s no wonder that they have become one of the most popular celebrity couples that Hollywood has to offer. What’s so amazing about these two is that they tied the knot as soon as it became legal in California, and they have now been hitched since 2008. It seems as though nothing can break these two, and Ellen herself has even said that “Her happiness is my happiness and vice versa.” Isn’t that cute?
Leslie Mann and Judd Apatow
We all know who Leslie Mann is, and we all know who Judd Apatow is, but did you know that these two are married?! Amazingly, this celebrity power couple must have slipped under the radar, because they have been happily calling themselves husband and wife for over two decades. Not only do they work incredibly well together on a personal level, but it seems as though these two also work well together on a professional level, as they are both creative, talented, and hilarious. Even their kids are following in their footsteps.
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman may have once been married to Tom Cruise, but it seems as though most people like to forget that little nugget of information. So, instead, we’ll focus on the fact that Nicole is now one-half of one of the most adorable marriages we have ever seen. The Australian actress married country singer Keith Urban in 2006, and they have since expanded their cute family even more. Both Nicole and Keith seem pretty smitten, and the country star has even said that “Getting married wasn’t life-changing, it was life-beginning.” Pass us the tissues…
Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra
It’s hard to believe that the Jonas Brothers are no longer teenagers with all-too-long hair, but it seems as though these guys have all grown up – and they’ve even got hitched. Nobody expected Nick Jonas to fall in love with a Hollywood and Bollywood babe like Priyanka Chopra, but we knew that it worked the minute we saw them together. The couple got engaged just a few months into their relationship, and they later tied the knot in a number of different ceremonies taking place in late 2018. The weddings were awesome, but our invite must have got lost.
Prince William and Kate Middleton
Come on, we couldn’t leave these guys out! Not only are they one of the biggest celebrity power couples in the world, but one day they are going to ascend to the throne – and not many people can say that. Whether you know them as Prince William and Kate Middleton or the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, there’s no doubt about the fact that these guys are kind of a big deal. While they had a few ups and downs in their youth, they now have a wonderful family and three adorable kids we just can’t get enough of.
Faith Hill and Tim McGraw
Not only are Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, one of the best celebrity power couples in the world, but they are also one of the best country couples. These two legends create one epic sandwich of rhythm and talent, and there’s no doubt about the fact that everyone seems to love them. It seems as though these two love each other as well, as they have been going strong since they got hitched in 1996. Tim loves to boast about his wife, and one post on Instagram stated that he knew instantly that Faith was the love of his life.
Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally
Could these guys be any funnier? We think not. Although these two comedians don’t exactly flaunt their relationship for everyone to see, fans of their work know that they are deeply in love – and that seems to have made their material even more impressive. This couple often works on sketches and shows together, and they’ve even written their own book. Of course, in true Offerman/Mullally form, they called this book ‘The Greatest Love Story Ever Told: An Oral Story.’ In the past, Nick has noted that his relationship with Mullally saved his life.
Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer
It’s not often that a celebrity ties the knot with someone not in the public eye, but Amy Schumer isn’t your average celebrity. This comedian shocked everyone when her relationship with farmer and chef Chris Fischer made its way into the limelight, and it wasn’t long before they became one of the most adorable new duos on the scene. They took their relationship to the next level when they got married in 2018, and they welcomed their son not long after. These guys have since won us all over with their amazing social media antics.
Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith
While many people assume that celebrities meet at high-profile parties and red carpet events, it might surprise you to learn that Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith first exchanged pleasantries on Instagram. Mandy has been a huge fan of Taylor’s band, Dawes, for many years, and when she posted their album on the social media platform, he decided to reach out to her. Amazingly, they have since fallen in love and proved to everyone that real love does exist. If you haven’t seen pictures of their low-key wedding yet, then you need to do so right away…
David Foster and Katharine McPhee
What’s so amazing about this relationship is the fact that these two go way back. In fact, Katharine McPhee first met David Foster when she was singing her heart out on American Idol in 2006. While she later went on to marry someone else, they reunited in 2018 when they were both single. Of course, countless people had something to say about the rather large age gap between them – but this is Hollywood! Anything goes in Hollywood. They tied the knot in 2019, and they’ve since been making us fall in love with them ever since.
Meryl Streep and Don Gummer
Meryl Streep is one of the most famous women that Hollywood has ever had the pleasure of knowing, but did you know that her husband prefers to stay out of the limelight? Don Gummer is a sculptor, and it seems as though he’s pretty happy with his wife’s high-profile career. It seems as though it’s this difference that makes them work, as they have been happily married since 1978. Meryl has often been asked about the secret to a happy marriage, and she has always said that communication is key.
Viola Davis and Julius Tennon
There was once a time when Viola David felt extremely lonely as a single woman in Hollywood, but that time has now long gone. Viola has confessed that she once prayed for a “big black man from the South who looked like a football player” to come into her life, and lo and behold, she’s now married for former football star Julius Tennon! The couple became husband and wife in 2003, and it seems as though they are now inseparable. If that manifesting business really does work, then we might give it a try ourselves.
Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick
Known for his loose feet and his dancing shoes, everyone knows who Kevin Bacon is. His wife is also pretty darn famous, so it should come as no surprise to learn that they are a Hollywood power couple. However, it’s not really their combined talent that makes people feel all warm and fuzzy inside when they think of them. It’s more the fact that these guys have been together for decades, and they seem to love each other more and more as each year passes. The couple tied the knot in 1988, and they’ve been our favorites ever since.
Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman
Although many celebs meet each other when they are in the midst of their fame and fortune, what’s so special about Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman is the fact that they met on their first day of college in 1992 – and they’ve been in each other’s lives ever since. It didn’t take too long for the two of them to get together, but they did wait until 2003 to tie the knot and make things official. Although they now own a successful production company together, Banks has noted that the thing she is most proud of is her long relationship.
Steve Carell and Nancy Carell
Let’s be honest; Steve and Nancy Carell are a couple made in comedy heaven. These two have been married for almost three decades, and they have been able to traverse the wide and often fickle world of Hollywood with each other by their sides. Do you know how these guys met, though? Well, Steve was teaching an improv class when he spotted one of his newest students. In his words, she was “beautiful, intelligent, and really funny,” and he couldn’t take his eyes off her. He later married that same woman.
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren
Jessica Alba is often considered to be one of America’s sweethearts, and she has blown us away with her beauty and her talent over the years. So, we think it’s safe to say that Cash Warren should count himself pretty lucky. The actress met Cash while on the set of Fantastic Four back in 2004, and they immediately hit it off. Just a few years later, they had fallen pregnant with her first child, and they decided to skip the big wedding and elope when Jessica was nine months pregnant. They now have three children together.
Jimmy Fallon and Nancy Juvonen
Because we’re so used to seeing Jimmy Fallon on his own with a full studio audience with him, it’s often easy to forget that he has a whole other life. In fact, he’s one-half of a celebrity power couple! Jimmy is married to Nancy Juvonen, a film producer, and they have been husband and wife now for over a decade. They have also welcomed two daughters into the world, and Jimmy has noted that he’s one of the most loved-up guys in the business. He apparently cried so much during his proposal that Nancy thought he was having a stroke.
Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr.
Well, these two certainly have a story to tell. Not only are Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr., one of the coolest couples in the business, but they are also one of the coolest acting partners in the business. These two love bugs first met in 2000 after working together on I Know What You Did Last Summer, and just two years later they were hitched. They have since worked on countless movies and business projects together, and they have noted that the key to their marriage is keeping aspects of their life away from the cameras.
Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis
Okay, we totally didn’t see this happening, but we don’t think we’ll ever get over how happy we were to learn that Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis. Better yet, they’re engaged! These two actors first started dating back in 2011, and they have since welcomed two adorable children into the world. Although these guys love their kids, they know that they need a date night every so often to keep their relationship intact. So, they “prioritize a couple of date nights a week” to keep the spark alive and their love burning.
