Six of the most powerful couples of Hollywood

The widespread view that acting marriages quickly disintegrate is not always fair.

Edition Viasat prepared a selection of star marriages that have passed the test of time.

Michael Caine and Shakira Baksh

43 of the year together

40-year-old Kane, a cynic and skeptic, saw a coffee ad on TV and fell in love with one of the girls. who danced in the frame with a basket of coffee. Michael decided to go to Brazil to find her there. But it turned out that the eastern beauty rents a flat on the outskirts of London, her name is Shakira, she comes from India, and in Britain she makes a model career.

Kane rushed to get acquainted. He was so in love and energetic that Shakira simply could not but reciprocate. Six months later, Kane made a favorite proposal.

They are together now, they have a daughter Natasha.

Meryl Streep and Don Gammer

38 years together

Their acquaintance somewhat resembles the plot of a melodrama. Meryl was looking for an apartment, she only buried her lover and wanted to completely change her life. Don offered his workshop - in fact, he really liked the cute blonde. They somehow came together at once and realized that together they felt good and comfortable. The wedding was quiet and modest.

To this day, the mystery is: how Streep manages to be a successful actress, an exemplary wife and mother. When Meryl is asked about the secrets of her strong marriage, she only smiles. And she says that at home she is not a star at all, but a cook, a chauffeur, a maid, a wife, and just a mother, and the star is for Hollywood and the red tracks.

Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw

25 years together

They met on the set of the adventure film "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." Kate was free then, and Stephen was in a state of divorce from Amy's first wife. They liked each other, and between the director and actress began a secret affair. In 1991, Stephen and Kate are married. Two years later, Spielberg's wife accepted Judaism to practice the same faith with him.

There are many children in this marriage. Both Kate and Stephen have a child from previous unions. At the same time, they gave life to three common children, and two more children were adopted.

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell

33 of the year together

They first saw each other at the audition for the film “Shift Change.” Moreover, Kurt had no intention of filming, but he saw Goldie and disappeared. And after the end of the film, they began to live as one big happy family.

At that time, they had three unsuccessful marriages and three children for two: he had a son, she had a son and a daughter. Later, a common son appeared.

Surprisingly, the couple did not sign, although their children have repeatedly visited the altar. Hawn likes to repeat that the stamp does not hold anyone.

Michelle Pfeiffer and David Kelly

23 of the year together

They met at a party, the novel developed rapidly. And most importantly, Kelly was absolutely not against the adoption of a child, since Michelle could not have children. They had everything turned out like in a movie: they got married, and literally the next day their adopted daughter Claudia-Rosa came into their family. And it didn’t do without a miracle: in two years Michelle was able to bear and give birth to her son John-Henry.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson

28 years together

When they met, Tom was married and had two small children. But the love of Rita was so strong that the actor decided to divorce. By the way, Tom became a Hollywood star next to Rita. He has repeatedly said that she has a great producer sense. When they got married, Catholic Tom converted to Orthodoxy — Wilson’s faith.

Of course, there is no marriage without trials. A few years ago, they seemed to be in a black line: Chet's eldest son was treated for drug addiction, the discovery of diabetes in Hanks, and breast cancer in Rita. But the couple coped with the troubles.
