In case you didn’t know, actors Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas are not only in love – they share birthdays as well. However, while Zeta-Jones was born on September 25, 1969, Douglas celebrated his first birthday 25 years before that! The two met in 1998, before marrying just two years later.

While 25 years might seem like a lot, Zeta-Jones apparently has no problem with it! “[Zeta-Jones will say], ‘Oh honey, I can’t wait when you get older, and you’re going to be in the wheelchair, and I’m going to be wheeling you around, and you’re going to be saying, ‘where are we going?’ and I’ll whisper it to you, ‘Cartier, darling, Cartier.’ She’s got it all figured out,” Douglas said.

Dick Van Dyke & Arlene Silver – 46-Year Difference

Actor Dick Van Dyke and his wife Arlene Silver have nearly half a century between them, but that has certainly not stopped these lovebirds! When you’ve been in love for as long as these two have been, concerns about age difference simply recede into the background.

Not that 95-year-old Dyke minded the 46 year age difference back when he asked Silver out in 2006. The two met at the Screen Actors Guild Awards and felt a clear attraction to one another. While it took six years of dating first, the two finally married in 2012 and remain together today. Congrats!

Beyoncé Knowles & Jay-Z – 12-Year Difference

Rapper Jay-Z and singer Beyoncé have been a power couple for nearly two decades now! Some younger readers may have even grown up watching the couple take over the music world, while also giving fans fantastic marriage goals. However, most fans don’t know that Jay-Z and Beyoncé have twelve years between them. That’s right!

In fact, there’s quite a bit about Jay-Z and Beyoncé that fans don’t know. For instance, the couple married in complete secrecy, not too long before the singer gave birth to a beautiful daughter, Blue Ivy. Of course, Blue Ivy would go onto become the world’s youngest Grammy winner at age nine. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!

Sarah Paulson & Holland Taylor – 32-Year Difference

Actresses Sarah Paulson, 44, and Holland Tylor, 76, have certainly started a lot of conversations in Hollywood! Not are they one of the most famous lesbian couples in Tinseltown, but they have also managed to change the conversation on relationship age gaps. Ever since the two linked up in 2015, they’ve heard plenty bout their 32-year age difference.

Of course, as you might suspect, Paulson has little time to deal with the attention. “My choices in romantic partners have not been conventional, and therefore the idea that it is ‘other’ makes it compelling,” the actress explained. On the other hand, Taylor simply does not understand the interest. “I was blindsided by the reaction to it,” she said.

Richard Gere & Alejandra Silva – 33-Year Difference

Actor Richard Gere and publicist Alejandra Silva certainly have a pretty big age gap between them, and neither tries to deny it. Silva has admitted that, in the beginning, she thought much more about difference than she does now. However, now, she realizes that when there’s a connection between two people, like her and Gere, a few decades seems trivial!

Some might think that the age gap would have meant no children for Silva and Gere. However, the pair recently welcomed their third child! We’re sure that you can expect a long and loving relationship for these two in the future.

Gabrielle Union & Dwayne Wade – 9-Year Difference

Actress Gabrielle Union and basketball star Dwayne Wade simply love breaking the barriers of typical relationships. First, the two linked up despite nearly a decade between them! Union, in particular, caused quite a stir by being the older one in the relationship. The two started dating in 2008 and never looked back!

However, the headlines of the tabloids meant little to this Hollywood couple, who has gained plenty of fans since they married in 2014. Union is not only an exceptional wife but also a remarkable stepmother, who continually showers Wade’s children, from a previous relationship, with love. How fantastic!
