Hugh Jackman and Deborra lee-Furness
Age difference: 13 years
He is now 49 and she is 62, but Jackman still remembers the first day they met as if it were yesterday. The two actors met on the set of an Australian television show in which they both played (she was the big star and he the new one), and Jackson was immediately struck by saying that he remembered thinking "I like this girl". The two quickly got along and have stayed together ever since. They have been married for 21 years, which is a lifetime by Hollywood standards.
And despite what one might think, their 13-year-old age difference does not frighten the star of "Wolverine". It happens to people: “I am an adult in a relationship. She is a little girl. I say this is not good.” Dear, this is not a legal parking spot. "- Leadership. "Oh, come on, Mr. Goody- Goody."
Dane Cook and Kelsi Taylor
Age difference: 27
He's 46, she's 19, and they're in love. The comedian and singer are part of those May-December romances that make everyone say, "Hey? The couple apparently met at a game party when Taylor was probably still a teenager and she officially started dating someone at 18.
In a recent Instagram Story Questions/Response, Cook even joked about their huge age difference when a fan asked him: "What advice should be given to those who have relationships with people with an age difference? He replied, "You have to do one thing, to predict that your death will be a little far from each other."
Wise words, indeed.
Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander
Age difference: 11 years
Vikander, an Oscar winner and acclaimed actor from "12 Years of Slavery," Fassbender began dating men in 2014 after meeting on the set of their film "The Light Between the Oceans". But they were so discreet that most people barely knew they were dating, let alone had a serious relationship.
According to their style, the two have secretly bonded in 2017. Vikander recently told Vogue about married life: "I feel happier and happier than I've ever been."
Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed
Age difference: 10 years
They may have come from different vampire universes (him from "The Vampire Diaries" and she from the series "Twilight"), but that didn't stop this genetically blessed couple from wasting time once they found themselves. In 2015, they got engaged after just six months of dating and married later that year.
Reed and Somerhalder, 10, often pay tribute to each other on their respective social media accounts and together advocate for many environmental and animal rescue causes. They welcomed their first child, their daughter Bodhi Soleil, in 2017.
Hilarie Burton and Jeffrey Dean Morgan1234
Age difference: 16
In case you missed it, the star of "Walking Dead" and the former star of "One Tree Hill" Burton are a serious couple. As in a married couple sharing a child. If you didn't know, you wouldn't be the only one, because the couple was so secretive about their entire relationship that many fans don't even know they're together.
The couple was created by a mutual friend and star of "Supernatural", Jensen Ackles, when Burton was 27 years old and Morgan 43. They were married in a very low-key ceremony that was not made public in 2014. People only began to suspect that they were married when they began to call themselves "husband" and "wife" in interviews. Rather sneaky.
Daryl Hannah and Neil Young
Age difference: 15 years
This newly married couple has had a promising start. The revered folk singer-songwriter was married to his wife Pegi for 36 years when they announced their separation in 2014 - followed shortly after by the news that he was now with Hannah. (You can put two and two together.) And the detractors were detestable.
Even David Crosby, the former member of the band Crosby, Still, Nash and Young, called Hannah a "venomous predator" at the time (which he later apologized for). The couple are said to have met and linked by their shared passion for the environment and activism. As with all the constant negative press, Young says: "It doesn't matter. Who cares. We don't care because they don't know what they're talking about."
And his much younger wife (she is between 57 and 72 years old) seems to have really helped him in the field of health and lifestyle by introducing him to pilates and swimming.
Emmanuel and Brigitte
Age difference: 25
French President Emmanuel Macron sparked a conversation last year in the French election because he is 25 years younger than his wife, Brigitte. In addition, he was a student at a school where she taught.
But he managed all the eyebrows raised with political composure: "If I were 20 years older than my wife, no one would think for a second that we could not be legitimately together," he told Le Parisien. "It is because she is 20 years older than me that many people say, 'This relationship cannot be tenable, it cannot be possible'".
Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox
Age difference: 13 years
Despite their 13-year-old age difference, "Transformers" star Megan Fox and former "Beverly Hills 90210" actor Brian Austin Green go back a long way. Megan Fox was only 18 when she met Green, 30. They have now been married for 13 years and are the parents of three children together: Bodhi, Noah and Journey.
"Marriage is difficult," Austin Green told People. "It's a job I think for everyone. I think when you get to a point like the one you have, where you have kids, where you've been married for a while and you've been together for a long time, it's - you just take it day by day."
Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy

One day, she told Tribune News: "I was so afraid of marriage that I thought I would have preferred to stand in front of a bus."
Huffman and Macy were married on September 6, 1997. They welcomed their first baby, their daughter Sophia Grace, three years later. Then, in 2002, they celebrated the birth of their second daughter, Georgia Grace.

They have been friends on the phone for a while, and the rest, as they say, belongs to history.
The May-December couple made the connection in 2007 and welcomed a baby girl in 2012. So what does it feel like to become a father for the first time at the age of 67? Martin told the Daily Telegraph: "Oh, that's fantastic - you have all the time in the world. You are well settled and confident in life, and you do not build your career, so you have a lot of time."
