While it was love at first sight for Posh and Becks, allegations of affairs almost caused a split – the pair discuss this in Netflix documentary Beckham

Music power couple Jay-Z and Beyoncé went through a cheating scandal in 2013, but Tom Hanks and Indiana Jones’ Harrison Ford stayed loyal to their wives – so what’s their marriage advice?

From the end of Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s four-year marriage to Taylor Swift and Matty Healy calling it quits after a month of dating, 2023 has been a year of messy celebrity divorces and break-ups.

While Hollywood relationships are known to burn and fizzle out as quickly as they started, there are plenty of famous couples that have broken out of that mould.

Here are 10 rare celebrity couples whose love has stood the test of time.

1. Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart: 21 years

Ford and Flockhart first met at the 59th Golden Globe Awards in 2002 and began dating the same year. The couple got married in 2010 and have preferred to keep their relationship away from the prying eyes of the public.

In his 2020 interview with Parade Magazine, the Indiana Jones actor shared his secret to a happy marriage. “Don’t talk. Nod your head,” he joked.

2. Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher: 22 years

English actor and comedian Cohen first met Fisher at a party in 2001. The couple tied the knot in 2010 and have welcomed three children over the years.

According to Fisher, the key to her long-lasting Hollywood marriage relationship is keeping it out of the public eye. “I think the secret for us is that we don’t talk about it publicly, so it feels special and private to us,” said Fisher during an appearance on the British talk show Loose Women in 2022.

3. Jay-Z and Beyoncé: 23 years
