Will Smith & Jada Pinkett-Smith—24 years

When it comes to finding love, you just never know where the road will take you. We are referring to Jada Pinkett Smith auditioning for the role of Nia Long in the hit ‘90s sitcom Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Although she didn’t get the part, she did get the show’s star, the “Fresh Prince” himself, Will Smith. After their first encounter, the two immediately knew that there was undeniable chemistry. Soon after the show ended in 1997, the pair got hitched.

Their union was a New Year’s surprise, right around December 31, 1997. The power couple got married in Jada’s hometown, Baltimore, at the Cloisters Castle. It took about ten hours and a team of decorators to make the event possible, with everything done at such short notice. It was a passionate day for the two. The degree of love was shared between their closest friends and family.  Afterward, they all went to the reception and danced the night away!
