Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb

The two actors have been together for almost 18 years. They met at Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood in 2007 and went on their first date shortly after.

In 2010, Rockwell and Bibb both starred in "Iron Man 2." Rockwell played Justin Hammer, one of the film's antagonists, and Bibb portrayed Christine Everhart, a journalist.

Most recently, Rockwell guest-starred on season three of HBO's "The White Lotus," which stars Bibb as Kate, one of this installment's privileged guests.

Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally

"Parks and Recreation" star Nick Offerman and "Will & Grace" favorite Megan Mullally are a match made in comedy heaven and have been since 2003. They often appear in each other's projects, sometimes playing characters in a romantic relationship.

"We like each other," Mullally said in a NY Daily News interview. "We also have a two-week rule, where we don't go more than two weeks without seeing each other. We've only broken it by a couple of days twice in 16 years."

Amber Tamblyn and David Cross

"The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" star Amber Tamblyn and "Arrested Development" actor David Cross took their relationship to the altar in 2012.

They welcomed their first child together, Marlow, in February 2017. The following month, Tamblyn and Cross shared a photo of the newborn on Instagram.

"Somehow my wife gave birth to a 55 year old furrier from Crown Heights," Cross joked. "I'm investigating."

Cobie Smulders and Taran Killam

"How I Met Your Mother" star Cobie Smulders and "Saturday Night Live" alum Taran Killam got married in 2012 and have two children.

In 2012, the "SNL" star sat down for an interview with Vulture just days after the couple's wedding. When the interviewer asked Killam why they weren't on their honeymoon, he replied, "Every day with Cobie is a honeymoon!"

In an interview with Parents, Smulders revealed that she always wanted to be a parent. 

"I come from a big family," she said. "I have two sisters and a brother and then my father remarried and I have four siblings from that marriage, which happened when I was quite young. So I always wanted kids but I also always wanted a career. I've always wanted both. It's a balancing system."

Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz

James Bond actor Daniel Craig put a ring on it back in 2011 when he married actor Rachel Weisz in a private ceremony involving just her son and his daughter.

In a 2015 interview with MORE magazine, Weisz explained why they keep things private. 

"He's just too famous," she said. "It would be a betrayal. You have to protect your marriage. When you're young, you tell your girlfriends everything. One of the great pleasures of not being an adolescent is that you don't have to share everything. When you're married, that door closes. The audience goes, and you're in your own life."

Jamie Lee Curtis and Christopher Guest

Jamie Lee Curtis and the mockumentary director Christopher Guest tied the knot in 1984 and have two children.

When asked about the secret to staying together, Curtis told the "Today" show in 2015, "Don't get divorced"

"It's a fascinating thing," she said. "I could write a book on marriage called 'Don't Leave.'" 

Carey Mulligan and Marcus Mumford

Mulligan and Mumford, of the band Mumford and Sons, married in 2012 and are known for keeping their relationship private.

Luckily, their friend Sienna Miller has seen enough to shed some light for their fans.

"They have chickens and a dog, and roasts and friends, jams by campfires. It's sort of idyllic," she told Vogue. "Marcus can headline Glastonbury and Carey can be nominated for however many Oscars, and then they come back to their farm, and they're in big woolly jumpers and funny hats, raising piglets."

Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz

Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz have been married since 2010 and are often seen together on music's hottest red carpets.

When Keys made a statement by going makeup-free to the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, Swizz defended his wife against any haters. 

"Y'all gotta think about that. This is deep," he said in an Instagram video. "Somebody's sitting at home mad, because somebody didn't wear makeup on their face — not your face, but they didn't put makeup on their face, because they just didn't feel like wearing makeup." 

Carrie Preston and Michael Emerson

Carrie Preston from "True Blood" wed Michael Emerson, aka Ben Linus from "Lost," back in 1998.

They may not have kids, but they do have a very special someone in their lives: their dog Chumley.

"Michael and I have been together for going on 22 years," Preston told Us Weekly in 2016. "We talk about our lives B.C. and A.C. — Before Chumley and After Chumley." 

Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy

Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy got married in 1997, making their marriage one of the longest-lasting in Hollywood. They have two children together, daughters named Sophia and Georgia.

Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy

The couple wed in 2009 and had their only son, Cyrus, in 2012.

Despite being married for almost 10 years, Danes says she's still learning.

"Marriage is wonderful. It's challenging, and … it just keeps getting deeper. I keep learning more things about him and myself, and that's not always comfortable," Danes said during a 2015 interview with Entertainment Tonight. "But I have this incredible security, and it's a huge asset to have a partnership with someone you trust and admire — and want to make out with."

Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon

The two actors, who starred in the movie "Lemon Sky," wed in 1988. They have two children together, a son named Travis and a daughter named Sosie.

Sedgwick and Bacon continue to support each other on red carpets for their projects and aren't afraid to be silly together on social media.  

Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart

They met at the 2002 Golden Globes and have been married for more than 10 years. The actors have a 22-year age gap, but to them, it's not a big deal. 

"It doesn't faze me," Flockhart told Hello! magazine in 2003. "Sometimes I even say, 'Wow, I keep forgetting that he's [22] years older than me.' It doesn't factor into our relationship at all." 

Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen

"The Good Place" actor Ted Danson and "The Proposal" star Mary Steenburgen have been married for more than two decades.

They met through Danson's audition for the 1983 film "Cross Creek" but didn't date at the time. 

"I was married. He was married. That was not our moment," Steenburgen told People magazine in 2021. 

Sure enough, the actors reconnected — as costars in the 1993 film "Pontiac Moon." They wed two years later. 

"I want as long as possible in my life with Mary," Danson told People magazine. "I know it will have all of its hard parts but I want to experience love in all those moments." 

Jameela Jamil and James Blake

They were first linked in 2015 when Jamil posted a photo of them celebrating her birthday in LA. Since then, they've stepped out together on red carpets and posted about each other on Instagram. 

In 2015, Blake told Dazed magazine that the "Good Place" star, who never minces words on social media, encouraged him to say how he really feels and be outspoken.

Meanwhile, Jamil said on Emma Gannon's "Ctrl Alt Delete" podcast, that her boyfriend taught her "to stick up for myself."

She also told Meghan Markle that the Grammy-winning musician is a "great source of strength and comfort."

"He's incredibly supportive of me, and you know he's been a big encourager of me to learn how to fight back and speak my mind and understand my worth, and he's just a great ally," Jamil said.
