10 Celebrity Couples Who Prove That Love Is Real
They got it right.
Instagram In a world that can be full of heartbreak and failing relationships, it's nice to look up to celebrity couples that are making it work. If they can have a healthy, loving relationship amidst all of their fame and chaotic lifestyles, then anyone can.
Sometimes we all wish we could be celebrities, but their lives are harder than they seem. A celebrity can never step out publicly without being swarmed by fans and attacked by paparazzi.
Relationships are difficult enough for us average Joes, but it's twice as hard when you're in the spotlight with millions of people watching you. The pressures of fame can easily get to them and negatively affect their relationship. That's why it's so special to see celebrity couples who have been together for years and are happily in love.
These couples are famous on their own, but they've become even more famous together. Their relationships have blossomed in the spotlight and each couple has its own approach to creating and nurturing a successful relationship.
While some are more active on social media and share a lot about their lives, other celebrity couples have chosen to keep their relationship more private. Still, when we get a glimpse of them together at a public event it's always a treat. Some of these couples have even managed to blend their relationship and career together in a healthy way.
Here are 10 celebrity couples that have the kind of love we all wish for.
1. David and Victoria Beckham
What happens when a Spice Girl and a Manchester United soccer player get together? Four kids and 19 years of marriage, apparently.
David and Victoria Beckham are an insanely good-looking power couple that made gorgeous kids! The two met in 1997 and have been together ever since. Together, they have $900 million! While Beckham retired from playing professional soccer in 2013, he's super supportive of his wife's fashion career. They build each other up and look good while doing it.
2. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds know not to take life too seriously. They truly are lovers and best friends all rolled into one.
They met in 2010 on the set of the movie "Green Lantern" and were both in relationships at the time. They stayed friends for a while and ended up falling for each other while on a double date with different people! Sparks flew and the couple got married in 2012. Lively and Reynolds joke around with each other all the time on social media. Despite all the jokes and laughs, these two have an incredible support system and everlasting love for one another.
3. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Harry and Meghan
Meghan Markle's real-life fairytale came true on May 19, 2018 when she married long-time bachelor, Prince Harry.
The former American actress met Prince Harry on a blind date in July 2016 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. They fell in love and now happily live in Kensington Palace. I'm sure adjusting to life as a Royal has been a huge change for Markle, but she has her prince by her side to help with the transition. They've recently announced that they're pregnant with their first child and the couple have plans to move to a new home on the Windsor Castle grounds in early 2019.
4. Emily Blunt and John Krasinski
Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have really mastered the look of love. Blunt and Krasinski met when they both happened to be eating at the same restaurant. A mutual friend, who was also at the restaurant, introduced them and the rest is history.
They've been married since 2010 and have two daughters together. Blunt and Krasinski recently had the pleasure and challenge of starring in the movie "A Quiet Place" alongside each other. The two actors had loads of fun working together and Blunt told CBS that her and Krasinski grew closer after filming the movie.
5. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis go way back!
They first met on the set of "That 70's Show" in 1998. At the time, Kunis was only 14 while Kutcher, who played one of her love interests on the show, was 20. Soon after, Kunis ended up having her first kiss on the show with Kutcher! Little did she know, years later she would end up marrying him.
The couple got married in 2015 and they have 2 adorable kids together. While they prefer to keep their love life more private, the photos they do share with the public show an undeniable connection between them.
6. John Legend and Chrissy Teigen
John Legend and Chrissy Teigen met on the set of Legend's music video for his song "Stereo" in 2007. Teigen was cast as his love interest in the music video and the two hit it off.

Legend surely must live by the motto "happy wife, happy life." The couple has two kids together, Luna and Miles, who are the perfect blend of their parents, and they love to share pictures of their beautiful family on social media.
7. Kanye and Kim Kardashian West
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West are a force to be reckoned with. Kimye is definitely a power couple!
While they are two of the most well-known people on earth, to North, Saint and Chicago, they're just mom and dad. The love they have for each other is so special and you can tell West is very protective of his wife. Unlike West, Kardashian is an avid social media user. She loves updating the world on everything going on in their lives, good and bad. When they're not busy working, the couple enjoys hanging out with their fellow celebrity couple friends, like John Legend and Chrissy Teigen.
8. Will and Jada Pinkett Smith
J. Cole's song "No Role Modelz" has truth to it when he says, "I want a real love... That Jada and that Will love."
Jada and Will Smith have been married for almost 20 years now and they say they're on a whole other level in their relationship. Instead of saying they're married, they refer to each other as life partners. Smith said that he will support his wife for the rest of his life. That's the kind of love and support we all need in a partner!
When asked by People and Entertainment Weekly how her and Will Smith have kept such a loving marriage, Jada said the key to a happy union is to find your happiness individually. You need to be able to be content and happy with yourself in order to love another to the best of your ability. They're a strong couple that offer each other an endless amount of support.
9. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have a roller coaster ride of a relationship, but their past has only made them stronger.
Hemsworth and Cyrus fell in love on the set of the movie "The Last Song," in which they played each other's love interest. Since then, it's been reported that they've broken up and gotten back together a number of times but the universe just had a way of bringing them back together.
Since getting back together in 2016, Cyrus and Hemsworth have managed to keep their relationship more quiet, and it's been working for them. They seem to be happier than ever! They're now happily living life as newlyweds. The pair finally got married in early 2019 and have enjoyed calling each other husband and wife.
10. Steph and Ayesha Curry
Steph Curry has two teams. On the court, he's part of the Golden State Warriors, but off the court, he's team family. Steph and Ayesha Curry are the cutest dynamic duo you've ever seen! Cardi B even references the couple in her song, "Be Careful".
The two met as kids in a church youth group, but didn't start dating until they reconnected years later. Curry proposed to the love of his life at the spot they had their first kiss, his parent's driveway. The Curry's have two daughters and recently welcomed their first son, who's five months old now. They love sharing pictures of their family on Instagram! Overall, they're a loving couple that knows how to have fun together.
