Is there nothing sacred anymore? After 10 years of relationships, Hollywood actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who married in 2014, decided to break up, reports Reuters. According to Angelina Jolie's lawyer, who filed for divorce, "this decision was made for the well-being of family members. She will not comment on this decision and asks that the family be granted the right to privacy during this period." The couple has six children.

Although we were upset, we decided not to lose heart and remember that in Hollywood (and not only) Olympus still has couples we believe in.

Jeff and Susan Bridges met on a ranch in Montana in 1974. Then Jeff starred in a western-style comedy called "Ranch Deluxe". Susan was a waitress and an aspiring photographer. He fell in love with her at first sight, but she refused to go on a date with him. Bridges returned after filming the film and took Susan to Canada. They got married in 1977 and haven't been apart since. "I love her so much," the actor said recently. — Our relationship is only getting better, closer and more intimate. And nothing needs to be done about it."

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have been Hollywood's golden couple for 26 years now. The two met on the set of the film "One Truly Original Family Orchestra" in 1968, but a spark ran between them when they met again — on the set of the film "Shift Shift" 15 years later, in 1983. During this time, they managed to star in the movie "Overboard" in 1987 and give birth to a son, White Russell, who is now 23 years old.

In a surprisingly strong and stable family, in addition to White, there are also children from previous marriages of both parents — Kate and Oliver Hudson (Goldie's children) and Boston (Kurt's son). Although their marriage seems perfect, we can only see Goldie Hawn in expensive dresses on the red carpet. "There's something about marriage that I don't like," the twice-divorced star said. "The fact that Kurt is my boyfriend is very sexy and intriguing."

They met in 1989. At first, Michelle was just a mentor to Harvard Law School freshman Barack Obama at a Chicago firm. Initially, she didn't even want to go on a date with him, and not only because it was unprofessional, but also because, in her opinion, "every black guy who spent his formative years away from his homeland is a little strange." In the end, she gave up and agreed to spend the day with him at the Art Museum, and then walk along Michigan Avenue.

"He was definitely trying to charm me," Michelle once said in an interview. — And it worked. He literally drove me crazy with his charm." Two years later, at dinner in an extravagant restaurant, right in the midst of their conversation that it was time to take the relationship to a new level, Michelle saw a small box on her plate. For Michelle, it was serious enough, and she married Barack a year later. After 15 years and after the birth of two daughters, this couple was able to keep the relationship fresh, despite the busy Barracks. "Sometimes when we are lying on the same bed," says Barak, "I look at her and feel a little dizzy."

Rita Wilson first met her future husband Tom Hanks on the set of the TV series "Close Friends" in 1981, where she starred as a Satanist and a friend of Peter Scolari. But Wilson fell in love with Hank only in 1985, on the set of the movie "Volunteers". Three years later, the successful actors got married. Hanks and Wilson played brother and sister in the 1993 film Sleepless in Seattle and unrelated characters in the 1996 film What You Do. They also co-produced several films, including the films "My Big Greek Wedding" and "Mamma Mia". The couple has two sons, Chester and Truman, and even after 21 years of marriage, they are not tired of each other. "We always laugh, we're always honest with each other, and I never take it for granted," Wilson admitted.

Five years after Elton John openly confessed his homosexuality, he met David Furnish on October 30, 1993 at an official party. The musician asked Furnish for his phone number, and they had dinner alone the next evening, on Halloween. Their relationship wasn't always perfect, but eventually the couple officially registered their relationship on December 21, 2005 at a ceremony in Windsor. "David is the best thing that has happened to me in my life," John said. — Yes, we were apart for a long time, but we were able to overcome it. We call each other 5-6 times a day and send each other postcards wherever we are." The couple has been together for 16 years.

The fleeting wedding of Colin and Alma Powell led to the creation of one of the strongest political alliances in the era of modern political instability. The former Secretary of State met Alma Johnson in November 1961 in Boston. It was the first blind date for both of them... and, as it turned out, the last. The next day, Colin called her and asked for a second date. In his book "My American Journey," he wrote that Alma had everything he needed in a wife. "I didn't even buy her an engagement ring… She was wise enough to understand that these little things do not create a marriage." "Don't worry about the ring," she told him. "You can give it to me later." In the end, he did so.

Two weeks after this "proposal without a ring", they were married in Birmingham, Alabama, on August 25, 1962. Powell called this his happiest day. Since then, the couple has had three children, and Alma has always been a devoted wife and mother, although it has not always been easy for their 47-year family life. "You have to be a strong person. You should have a sense of adventurism and just a lot of patience." But Alma was helped by her husband's character. "He's the calmest person I've ever known," she says.

It is very rare for a mistress to become a wife, but the story of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles seemed to have been written for the British tabloids. As a result, they became a strong married couple. Charles and Camilla met at a polo match in 1970, and although the prince saw her as his future wife, his entourage did not consider her a suitable candidate. Three years later, she married Andrew Parker-Bowles, and the prince married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. But, according to rumors, Charles and Camilla resumed their relationship in the 80s.

When their relationship was made public 10 years later, it hit the pages of British newspapers, and Prince Charles and Princess Diana broke up shortly after. In 2005, Charles and Camilla tied the official knot. After going through scandals, media attacks and dissolved marriages on both sides, this couple managed to maintain their relationship, which has lasted for more than 40 years.

Husband and wife are tennis players — what could be simpler, but the relationship between Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf did not develop as smoothly as we would like. These two very rarely saw each other because of their busy schedule, but this did not prevent the then married Agassi from sending the Count a bouquet of roses. At that time, she was dating a German racer. "She thought I was a dog," Agassi said. However, both saw something more in this relationship. "Every rose was amazing," the Count said in an interview. "You could feel that each petal had reached its peak of flowering." And even though she knew he was married, she couldn't get him out of her head. Soon the divorce of Agassi and Brooke Shields thundered, and he began courting the Count. The tennis players got married in 2001.

The star of the TV series "Slow Development" Porsha de Rossi and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres were at the tail end of a long relationship, but then a new spark resumed their passion, which began five years ago. According to de Rossi, he and Ellen met long before the filming of the program in 2004.

"There was a spark between us," the girl said in an interview. "I never stopped thinking about her because I didn't have that kind of energy with anyone." But five years later, in 2004, when Porsha and Ellen met again, these feelings and thoughts could no longer be ignored. De Rossi said Ellen took her breath away. "This has never happened to me — that I saw someone and suddenly experienced all those wonderful moments that are sung in songs and written in poetry. My knees gave way," the girl smiles. "It was like we were made for each other."

And in 2008, the comedian DeGeneres made sure that they would continue to be together, giving her companion a three-carat pink diamond ring. The wedding took place at home in Los Angeles, there were only 19 guests. The couple got married on August 16, 2008.
