Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman

What was it going to take to make none other than Anne Hathaway to fall for a guy? Looks like super fan and producer Adam Shulman swept her off her feet. Anne and Adam met because of a mutual friend at the Palm Springs Film Festival. Anne Hathaway and Shulman married in 2012 and now have two children. Not all celebrities publicly post about their private life and Hathaway likes to keep hers private as well, which is why she does not share many pictures of her family on social media.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston

Who doesn’t love a romantic story? Before Kelly Preston and John Travolta worked on the 1987 movie The Experts, she’d been a huge fan of Travolta and his work. While Preston was impressed when she first met Travolta, the couple didn‘t get together right away. She really made him work for it. Following her divorce, Preston was briefly involved with George Clooney and then engaged to Charlie Sheen. After Sheen and Preston broke up in 1990, the actress started seeing Travolta. And from there, it’s history. After about 30 years of marriage, Kelly Preston passed away in 2020 after battling with breast cancer for two years.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West

Kanye West has always been a fan of Kim Kardashian, and like most things he does, he was not afraid of making it known. On a radio interview with Ryan Seacrest, West revealed he first saw Kardashian in a picture with Paris Hilton back in 2006. He asked his friend, ‘Have you seen that girl Kim Kar-dijon?‘”. When the two eventually met, they grew close together. After officially becoming a couple, the two celebrities tied the knot in 2014. The couple now share four children together. However, recently, after a rough year in 2020 between the two due to numerous reasons, it seems like their fairytale might be coming to an end.

Jerry Seinfeld and Jessica Seinfeld

Jessica Seinfeld has never really been as popular as her comedian husband Jerry, but she’s honestly fine with that. Believe it or not the couple met in a gym in 1998, and yes, it was love at first sight. To top it off, Jessica dumped her first husband after their honeymoon so that she could marry Jerry, and now they have been married for 21 years and share three kids, Sascha, Julian and Shepherd. The couple came under scrutiny for tying the knot just over one year after meeting in 1998, but things between the two are going great. We must admit, that seeing people who make their relationship last through the test of time is quite touching. Is this goals or what?

Conan O’Brien and Liza Powel

Liza Powel was a huge fan of Canon O’Brien when they met working on a project in 2000. Powel was just a copywriter who was working on a project with him, but due to their deeper connection the two started dating and they totally hit it off. They got married in 2002 and are still together today, with two kids, Neve and Beckett. I wonder who is more of a fan to the other, O’Brien or Powel? Conan has had his ups and downs as a television host throughout the years, but his wife Liza Powel has been there to support him through it all.

Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth

Reese Witherspoon was, for some time, the stereotypical Hollywood star who only dated stars. For example, she married Ryan Phillippe and had a long term relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal. Her life took a turn when she met talent agent Jim Toth. Toth wasn’t the biggest agent around, but he was definitely one of Witherspoon’s biggest fans. They got married in 2011 and welcomed a child in 2012. Reese Witherspoon’s husband sure is a lucky man! The couple now shares three kids together.
