Selena Gomez weds Benny Blanco: A look at Hollywood's longest-lasting love stories

As we celebrate Selena Gomez tying the knot with the love of her life, Benny Blanco, let’s take a look at the longest marriages sustained in Hollywood.

Though rare, here are the famous stars who have been married for a more than a decade:

Denzel and Pauletta Washington — 42 years

Despite meeting on a film set in 1977, Denzel and Pauletta reconnected a few months later at a party.

After several attempts to propose, Denzel finally succeeded, and the couple married in June 1983.

When Denzel accepted the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award in 2019, he gave major credit to his wife for the role she has played in both his personal and professional life.

"I would not be alive without Pauletta Washington," he said.

Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham — 39 Years

The duo met in 1986, the same year The Oprah Winfrey Show first aired.

After they began dating, Stedman made a surprise appearance on the show in 1987.

By 1992, Oprah and Stedman announced their engagement. However, they never tied the knot, believing that not marrying was the right choice for their relationship to last.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson — 37 years

Like many other power couples, Tom and Rita met on set, while filming ABC's Bosom Buddies in 1981. Although Tom was married at the time, destiny had other plans.

By 1986, Tom and Rita made their red carpet debut as a couple. Two years later, they got married.

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos — 29 Years

The duo met in 1995 while starring on the soap opera All My Children.

After taking their relationship public at the 1996 Soap Opera Digest Awards, Kelly and Mark eloped in Las Vegas just a few months later.

Since 2023, they have been co-hosting their talk show Live With Kelly and Mark.

David and Victoria Beckham — 26 Years

David and Victoria officially met at a football game in 1997.

After this brief encounter, they spent more time together at another match the following week. By the end of their conversation, Victoria wrote her number on a train ticket — which David has kept to this day.

The couple welcomed their first born, Brooklyn Beckham, in March 1999, and that July, the new parents tied the knot at a castle in Ireland.
