Most of us probably know from personal experience that securing a good romantic relationship is never easy. In the modern world, few marriages last the test of time, but we all still dream that we will find that perfect someone with whom we will be happy forever. Monogamy can be a very rewarding experience when it’s pursued with the right person, and it’s unfortunate that there are still many of us out there hanging around the wrong one.
Dating over 50 can be tricky, but it’s better to give up on a bad marriage and start your life over instead of carrying out the rest of your days trapped inside a loveless, awful relationship. And, honestly, the same goes for senior dating. The older you get, the harder it is to get back in the game, but you should never lose hope. There are still beautiful, long-lasting relationships out there between people that are well past their prime. Here are some of the most famous examples.
Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn
Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have been together ever since 1983, and yet they’re still not married. This is so baffling to the press, that they always get the same question: are you ever going to get married? And the two blissfully laugh it off, because they probably know they don’t need to complicate their lives with that. They already have a beautiful family, and marriage doesn’t have anything to do with it. In fact, the two are so close that Hawn’s children from a previous marriage consider Russell to be their father.
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith
Will and Jada are another example of a Hollywood celebrity couple that stood the test of time, in spite of endless rumors of fights and divorce. The press has had a go at their marriage plenty of times, especially after they disclosed the fact that they have an open marriage. However, the two are as happy as ever, and they live their lives peacefully alongside their son Jayden and their daughter Willow. And yes, their children’s names are played off of their own. Relationship goals much?
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill
While we sure do love to hear about unconventional relationships that lasted for years and years on end, traditional marriages are fine as well if that’s what works for you. And that’s exactly what worked for fellow musicians Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, who have been happily married for 17 years now, and probably will still be for a lot more years to come. Tim and Faith also have three lovely daughters together, which are aged 20, 19 and 16. They are the picture-perfect traditional American celebrity family, and they’ve never been happier and more in love. Kudos to them!
