Famously unwed actors Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn's romance is worthy of a film. It is famously known that their "romance almost never materialized" because of their age gap in romantic films like Swing Shift and Overboard (she was 21; he was 16). When we look back at the past 37 years, we'd say that the partnership was well worth it.

They met for the first time at a charity event in 1986, the year that The Oprah Winfrey Show debuted. At the occasional high-profile event, Lady O and Stedman's affection can be seen clearly, despite the fact that they keep their relationship private. The fact that they aren't married and have never exchanged vows doesn't indicate that they were never proposed to.

After a private, heartfelt, and spiritual ceremony in April 2008, the "Crazy in Love" birds tied the knot. Beyoncé keeps the specifics of her highly publicized marriage hidden, much like the couple's top-secret nuptials. We'll have to sift through the lyrics to find out what's going on.

He was dressed impeccably and was really cautious. We ate dinner the following night. After that, we were able to finally seal the deal on our relationship. We were smitten by each other in a flash." However, even though there wasn't a lot of conversation, the couple attributed their everlasting love to their communication. In the Parade interview, John revealed a secret that has been the foundation of their strong relationship.

On Broadway in the early '90s, they began dating shortly after SJP's breakup with Robert Downey Jr. was made public. When Parker spoke on the Girlboss Radio show with her husband Broderick, she revealed the secret to their success: investing in each other. She believes that the more time you have left, the more invested you get. As a result, your joys and sorrows are intertwined. The more you feel and experience these emotions, the more difficult it becomes to conceive without being a part of your life.
