Over the years, these famous pairings have not just brought their onscreen projects immense success, but have also drawn much fanfare over their real-life chemistry.

One of the most celebrity couples, when Lively and Reynolds first met on the sets of Green Lantern in 2010, they were both involved with other people. While Lively was dating her Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley, Reynolds was married to Avengers fame Scarlett Johansson.
However, the two Hollywood stars found themselves single shortly after and according to sources, started dating in 2011. Lively was spotted leaving Reynolds’ Boston apartment after attending his birthday in October that year. This was followed by an internal source telling People that at that time they were “very much a couple” and were “really happy together”.
The pair secretly wed on 9 September 2012 in South Carolina. They are currently proud parents to four children: daughters James, Inez and Betty, and a new baby they welcomed in February 2023.

Did you know that Cruz and Bardem are one of the only six elite married couples who have been nominated for the Oscars in the same year? While Bardem was shortlisted in the Best Actor category for his role in Being the Ricardos (2021), Cruz was in the running for the Best Actress title for playing Janis Martínez Moreno in Parallel Mothers (2021).

They said their vows in a private ceremony in 2010. The actor-couple share two children — a son born in 2011 and a daughter born two years later.

One of the most celebrity couples in Hollywood, Gosling and Mendes turned their reel love story real shortly after filming The Place Beyond the Pines in 2011.
The extremely private couple welcomed their first child, daughter Esmeralda Amada Gosling, in September 2014. Mendes later opened up about how she never wanted children until she fell for Gosling. The duo became proud parents to a second daughter in April 2016, who they named Amada Lee Gosling, after Mendes’ grandmother.
The Ghost Rider actor showed off her wrist tattoo ‘de Gosling’ in November 2022, suggesting that she and Gosling are husband and wife. According to sources, in Hispanic culture, the use of ‘de’ or ‘of’ unites the woman’s last name with her husband’s after marriage. Later that month, Mendes appeared on Channel Nine’s Today to promote her charity work and referred to the Barbie star as her “husband” for the first time in public.

From falling in love on set to welcoming their daughter together in 2018, theirs is a decade-old Hollywood love story. Although Weisz met the James Bond star Craig back in the ’90s as an industry newcomer in London, it was only in February 2010 that the two got together on the sets of Dream House.
Craig and Weisz exchanged vows in a secret ceremony in New York in 2011 in the presence of Weisz’s son, Henry, from her former partner Darren Aronofsky and Craig’s daughter, Ella, from his marriage to actor Fiona Loudon.
