There is absolutely no doubt that celebrities always manage to astonish people with the ways they keep their private lives away from public eyes. Even though many celebrities are best known for their relatively quick relationship turnovers, there is so much more to Hollywood than divorce and doom.
It is no secret that true love is a rarity. Some couples come and go so fast that it is pretty much impossible to keep track of who is dating who these days. And now, here is a list of some of the most fantastic celebrity couples showing that finding true love isn’t impossible in the world of showbiz!

She has been a part of many different movies, including the 2018 film called Mary Poppins Returns (as Topsy) and — one of her most recent projects — the 2019 film called Little Women (as Aunt March).
It didn’t take long for Meryl and sculptor, Don to get hitched, and right now, they have four children. Meryl and Don had a wedding in 1987, and the two of them have been together for about 42 years now.
Mira Sorvino & Christopher Backus — 19 Years
Mira Sorvino and Christopher Backus can teach us a thing or two about keeping romance alive for long, seeing that they have been married for more than 15 years. The love birds wed in 2004 at the Santa Barbara courthouse after less than a year of dating. They met at a mutual friend’s party and have four children.
Speaking to People Magazine, Sorvino stressed that date nights are essential, especially for couples who spend a lot of time parenting, because it gives the adults time to be alone. They usually scout for romantic places to visit, share meals, and create memories.

She has been a part of several different films, including Fast Times at Ridgemont High (as Linda Barrett) and Gremlins (as Kate Beringer).
