Lasting devotion is not a thing of celebrity relationships, and in between the fawns of fans at the breaking when famous couples get hooked, celebrities parting ways after a short dating stint is so common it’s hardly ever surprising. But some big names have defiled expectations down the years, having stuck together longer than we could foretell, and these names take the top of “stronger than imagined” relationships among pop culture fans on one popular internet forum.
1. Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag
The couple, jointly nicknamed “Seidi” by admirers, have been married for 15 years, and many think they are made for each other. Echoing the thoughts of hundreds of others, one fan says, “I was just watching some of Spencer’s snaps, and they have the cutest kids. And Spencer seems to be a very involved dad and husband. Did not expect them to be together, much less do so well.”
2. Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddy Prinze Jr.
Sarah and Freddy were up the list of relationships many did not expect to last this long. Still, according to one contributor, the couple has been going strong for 20+ years “and seem super stable with no scandal whatever.” Someone else tags them as her favorite celebrity couple.
3. Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song
The mention of Macaulay and Brenda was greeted with massive upvotes, and several people claim they couldn’t believe the erratic couple is still together even though it’s been only four years of dating. An individual describes them as a low-key couple, adding that they have children together.
4. Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling
Describing the surprising yet fantastic strength of the couple’s bond, one observer explains it like this: “I thought they’d be another couple that met on set and then broke up after a while, but here they are more than a decade together, and with two kids. I think their privacy and staying away from Hollywood in their personal lives has helped.” A second person adds that they must have lived under a rock because they had no clue they were together after breaking out as a couple in 2011.
5. Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z
One commenter says they didn’t think it would last this long, adding that Beyonce’s outcry in the album Lemonade, pointing at Jay-Z’s infidelity, seemed like the last straw before she ended things. Surprisingly, the couples have grown deeper in love 20 years on.
6. Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton
Gwen and Blake are still going strong ten years on, and someone thinks it’s because Gwen never hid her desire for a traditional home with family values. Someone else describes them as a bizarre couple, even though they seem pretty happy together.
7. Victoria and David Beckham
The popular Posh and Beck, as they are widely referred to, are the perfect definition of a celebrity super couple, having achieved almost all the impossible in a celebrity relationship. “I can’t believe they have been married for almost 25 years,” someone exclaims. A contributor says she sees them as the British version of Jay-Z and Beyonce.
8. Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness
When Hugh Jackman hit it big, everyone thought he’d go for younger women and start dating hot. But the speculations around the couple remained, even though he is a big Hollywood star now. Although the couple announced their separation in 2019, they were together for 27 years, and no one expected them to last that long.
9. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
For many fans of the couple, what should be a lightship ready to sink has surprisingly stayed afloat. Amused by the mention, someone asks if they are still together, and a respondent answers “yes,” adding that they have a kid and are going strong. Katy and Orlando have been together since 2016.
10. George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin
According to a forum member, George Clooney dated everyone in Hollywood and refused to settle down, so most people expected his marriage with Amal to end early. “Nearly ten years later, and they’re still going strong,” a second person adds.
11. Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova
One person wants to know why Enrique and Anna were so far down the list, and a respondent could not believe everyone had forgotten about them. Explaining his obsession with the couple, another individual says, “I remember feeling some sort of way about this in 7th grade in the late ’90s… turns out that I was jealous of him… she’s super hot!”
12. Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi
Steff and Andre have been around for so long, “Only the older people here have any idea how ridiculous it is,” someone implies. When a second person asks how long they’ve been together, a third person replies: “They’ve been dating since 1999, married since 2001. Still together, without a single scandal. This is ridiculous if you know anything about Andre Agassi and his antics in the ’80s and ’90s.”
