Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward have been married for 48 years and have three kids but he was married to someone else for like two years before that. I still think that 48 years is alot for celeb couple.

Bob hope was married 69 years.



and it was his second marriage Chat Icon


According to biographer Arthur Marx, son of Hope's long-time professional rival Groucho Marx, Hope's first wife was his vaudeville partner Grace Louise Troxell whom he married on January 25, 1933. When the marriage record was unearthed some years later Hope denied that the marriage had any substance and said they had quickly divorced. There were rumours that he fathered a daughter with Troxell and that he continued to send generous checks to her despite a reputation for frugality.[citation needed]

Hope married his second wife Dolores DeFina on or about February 19, 1934 (no record of the marriage is known to exist). A devoutly Roman Catholic Bronx-born nightclub singer of Irish and Italian ancestry, she was known professionally as Dolores Reade and had met Hope two months earlier at The Vogue, a Manhattan nightclub where she was performing. DeFina and Hope remained together until Hope's death sixty-nine years later, the longest marriage in Hollywood history to date. They adopted four children, all from the same orphanage in Evanston, Illinois.

Hope reportedly had many discreet affairs (mostly with young actresses including, allegedly, Marilyn Monroe) and his reputation for frugality was widely documented

Alan Alda has been married to his wife since 1957 - 49 years. I remember seeing his biography on TV.

And I believe it was right after he graduated college, so probably 1st time for bothChat Icon

Re: ok which celeb couple...

Paul and Joanne was my first guess too.

Before she died, I think Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft were married for a long time too.

Re: ok which celeb couple...

How about Ben Stiller's parents, Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara? I *think* it is the first marriage for both.
Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan have been married for awhile now.

I know I can think of more.....Chat Icon

Danny attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York where, in 1970, he met Rhea Perlman. The couple lived together throughout the '70s, and married in 1982; they produced three children: Lucy (1983), Grace (1985), and Jake (1987).
