What is it about celebs only dating other famous people? Do they all have signs on their heads reading, ‘Will only shack up with fellow A-Listers’?
From ‘Kimye’, to ‘Brangelina’, to ‘Bennifer’ and ‘TomKat’, we all love a celeb romance but is there any hope for us mere normal folk? Well, drum roll… yes. Hurray!
Matt Damon with wife Luciana Barroso.
Here is a list of some of the stars who have found love a long way from the glitz of showbiz and fallen for an Average Joe, just like us.
Vince Vaughan and Kyla Webber
After dating Jennifer Aniston, the Wedding Crashers star met Canadian estate agent Kyla through friends in 2008 and proposed on Valentine’s Day the following year. He said: ‘She makes me laugh, she is wonderful. I am thrilled.’ Aww!
Adele and Simon Konecki
It takes a brave man to risk having a No. 1 chart-topper written about him by this powerhouse songstress, but charity boss Simon and Adele – who is notoriously private – have been together since 2010 and have a little boy together.
Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso
It was love at first sight for the Oscar-winning Hollywood actor when he clapped eyes on brunette bartender Luciana back in 2003. The pair married in 2005 and Matt became step-dad to Luciana’s daughter and they have since had three more girls together.
‘Something incredible happened the first time I saw her,’ he told Hello! Magazine, ‘I can’t imagine my life having not gone down that road.’ Swoon.
Lily Allen and Sam Cooper
After being mates for years, Lily and decorator Sam took their friendship to the next level and wed in June 2011. They have weathered some ups and downs and Lily sadly had a miscarriage but now they have two young daughters together.
Julia Roberts and Danny Moder
She had her fair share of celeb romances but the Pretty Woman star fell for ordinary Joe, cameraman Danny on the set of The Mexican in 2001 and they now have three children together.
Nicolas Cage and Alice Kim
The actor met former waitress Alice when she served him at a Los Angeles restaurant in 2005. He was 40 and she was 20, but that didn’t stop them and they married just a few months later.
David Schwimmer and Zoe Buckman
While he was filming Run Fat Boy Run in London’s East End in 2007, David met photographer Zoe and they walked down the aisle in a private ceremony in 2010. That’s one lucky lady!
Cynthia Nixon and Christine Marononi
The Sex In The City star was married with two kids before she met Christine at a political rally. After she split with her hubby they started dating and got hitched in 2004. She said: ‘In terms on sexual orientation I don’t feel I’ve changed… I’m just a woman in love with another woman.’
