The older sister of Jake Gyllenhaal, Maggie Gyllenhaal, is just as esteemed when it comes to Hollywood. The female star of Nolan’s ‘The Dark Knight,’ Gyllenhaal, has a unique acting charm about her. Tying the knot with fellow actor Peter Sarsgaard a decade ago, the two actually met through her brother Jake! Dating for a few years before Peter plucked up the courage to pop the question, the pair wed in 2006.
The couple has two children together, aged 13 and 7. It seems that for this pair of actors, patience and a lot of love have gone into making it work. It seems that honesty and communication are the keys to staying far away from the marriage counseling office.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Brad Hall – Together Since 1987
Julia Louis-Dreyfus is one of our favorite female characters of all time. Despite the on-again-off-again romance of her character, Elaine, with Jerry in 'Seinfeld', things were very different in real life! She met her future husband, Brad Hall in the early 80s when the pair were both attending Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois.
In 1987, the pair made it official and have remained married, even adding two sons to the mix. One happy family enjoying their hilarious mom’s $200 million fortune! Not to mention their dad’s own fortune – you might recognize him from SNL as a 'Weekend Update' news anchor.
Megyn Kelly and Douglas Brunt – Together Since 2008
We all know and love Megyn Kelly. She's been a consistent part of our lives from 2004 to 2017 when she hosted Fox News. But this political commentator isn't just about achieving career goals -- she has had a long steady relationship with her husband, Douglas Brunt, since the late oughts.
Megyn was briefly married to an anesthesiologist named Daniel Kendall. Their 2001-2006 marriage was short-lived, but they still gave it a good try. Today Kelly couldn't be happier with Brunt. The two have three beautiful children, making their family a party of five. Doug used to be the CEO of a cybersecurity firm, but in recent years he decided to pursue his real passion - being a writer. We definitely root for these two!
Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka – Together Since 2004
Neil Patrick Harris has to be one of our favorite comedy actors, rising to fame on 'How I Met Your Mother'. Actor, comedian, writer, producer, magician, and singer Neil Patrick Harris is one very talented individual. You’d think with all those talents and skills, it would be difficult to find someone truly worthy, but it seems that he met his match with David Burtka.
The pair were together since 2004 and tied the knot in 2014 when gay marriage was legalized. The pair have two children together, conceived through a surrogate mother - Harper Grace and Gideon Scott. Those are two very lucky kiddies, especially with that trust fund!
Mark Wahlberg and Rhea Durham – Together Since 2009
From a young, fresh-faced teen who was a star in 'New Kids on the Block,' fast forward and Mark Wahlberg is not only a mega-famous movie star and gym junkie, but he’s also famous for passing the 10-year milestone with his wife, Rhea Durham. The couple dated for seven years, during which they had 3 kids, and then went on to get married and have another child.
The secret to happiness? Well, a romantic holiday in Italy doesn’t hurt! But in all seriousness, it seems that a lot of love, patience, and communication has gone into making this relationship work. Four kids and a number of Hollywood blockbusters later, the pair are going strong.
