Numbers don't matter: celebrity couples with big age gaps

It is generally accepted that the ideal age difference for a couple is one to three years. Scientists are sure that it is these couples that have the highest chances of living happily ever after. But is this so in practice?

These star couples prove by their example that the age difference is just a myth. They are separated by years and sometimes even decades, but they have been together for more than one year, and over time, their love and friendship only become stronger.

Next to the other couples in this compilation, the age difference between Heidi and Tom is not that great, but there is one thing: it is not in favor of the German supermodel. Will this marriage be happy (the wedding was played in 2019)? Time will show!

In 2014, a dedicated Hollywood bachelor shocked fans (and especially female fans!) With the news that he had married a Lebanese-born British lawyer, Amal Alamuddin. The offended fans were waiting for the imminent announcement of the divorce, but seven years later, George and his companion are still happy.

The spouses are separated by 13 years, and all of them are not in favor of Deborra-Lee. Evil tongues criticize Furness's appearance with great pleasure and every year they predict the departure of the Australian handsome to a younger companion, but Hugh and Deborra-Lee disappoint them every time: their love knows no barriers.

The star of the cult franchises "Indiana Jones" and "Star Wars" and the performer of the leading role of the series "Ellie McBeal" met at the Golden Globe Awards in 2002 - Ford was then 60, and Calista was only 38. The couple dated for a little over seven years, after which Harrison made a proposal to his beloved. The Doves got married in Mexico in 2009.

Everyone was sure that the marriage of the Hollywood legend and the young actress would not last even three years, but over the past 20 years, Michael and Catherine gave birth to two children and went hand in hand through fire, water and copper pipes. They even managed to part for a while in 2013, but love turned out to be stronger.

You might think that this sweet couple has nothing to do on this list, because their age difference is "only" 11 years old. And yet, they seem so happy and with such irony about each other (Blake and Ryan have raised the art of trolling the other half on social networks to unprecedented heights) that it is simply unthinkable not to include them in it!

And that's not all! They are accompanied by David Foster and Katharine McPhee (34), Jeff Goldblum and Emily Livingston (30), Alec and Hilaria Baldwin (26), Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall (25), Bruce Willis and Emma Hemming (23) ), as well as Sam and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (23 years not in Sam's favor).
