12. Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson (27 years)
These Hollywood A-listers co-starred in the film Volunteers in 1985 and were married by 1988. The couple have two children together, Chester (Chet) and Truman Theodore. The couple’s relationship was put to the test when Rita had to undergo a double mastectomy in 2015. “Who knew it could make you even closer?” she pondered in an interview with The New York Times. “You never know how your spouse is going to react in a situation like this. I was so amazed, so blown away by the care my husband gave me. It was such a normal, intimate time.”
