this is the only celebrity couple that makes me believe in their love when I see them.

I remember watching them giving a speech about some random topic, they weren't thanking each other or some cheesy thing, just holding a speech.

the way they looked at each other, the way they smiled at each other, they looked so incredibly happy,

they found each other and I am happy love has prevailed so far, It will be a sad day if they break up.

He looks his age. I mean he is well preserved for a 50 year old, but he certainly doesn't look younger then 50.
 
They've been together for ages so it was about time.

Why?

Although I do remember reading something about them saying they wouldnt get married until everyone else can get married (ie gay marriage) or am I thinking of another couple?

No, that was Pitt.

I have read on multiple occasions, and studied it at school a bit, that couples who have been together a long time are more likely to divorce when they get married. There is something about married life that changes the expectations of the relationship.

Hahaha, my partner's mother trotted this out years ago, it's couples that live together before getting married. At the time I suggested that couples that are liberal enough to co-habitate/live-in-sin before marriage are also the ones liberal enough to get a divorce, so they're both effects of the same cause, not casually linked to each other; but I just looked up the stats on divorce rate based on political/religious leanings in the US and conservative Protestants in the southern US have the highest divorce rate, so I don't know how that squares up.

Welp, I guess he's getting tired of Angela. Now that he's married her, he can start looking for a new woman on the set of his next movie.

Congratulations both. A rare sight to see a couple this long together yes there are more but this one stands out the most though.
 
Good for them. It has been a matter of time, for year after year after year after year after year after year after year after year after year.

I'm sure that won't happen, but you never know.

There were some published studies that suggested that, but other research gives a different take on it - that age is a more relevant factor.

http://www.theatlantic.com/health/a...-step-toward-marriage-not-a-rebellion/284512/

Arielle Kuperberg was a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania when something in her sociology textbooks caught her eye. In research on marriage longevity, Kuperberg observed that the age a couple said “I do” was among the strongest predictors of divorce.

All of the literature explained that the reason people who married younger were more likely to divorce was because they were not mature enough to pick appropriate partners, she says.
Other researchers who had been exploring the link between cohabitation and divorce failed to take into account the age at which couples took that plunge. Kuperberg wondered if once she controlled for age, the link between cohabitation and divorce might disappear.

Using data from the U.S. governments’ 1995, 2002, and 2006 National Surveys of Family and Growth, Kuperberg analyzed more than 7,000 individuals who had been married. Some of the people she studied were still with their spouse. Others were divorced. Then, instead of studying just the correlation between cohabitation and divorce, Kuperberg looked at how old each individual was when he or she made his or her first major commitment to a partner—whether that step was marriage or cohabitation.

Moving in together without a diamond ring involved didn’t, on its own, lead to divorce. Instead, she found that the longer couples waited to make that first serious commitment, the better their chances for marital success.

He'll be cheating on her with Jennifer Aniston on the front page of SUN tomorrow.

Or reconciling with her in National Examiner.

Or at least regretting his decision on US.

Their ages are heaps believable...

I can already see their favourite past-time, sitting in front of the fire with a good book.
 
I also remember seeing Pitt in a segment about Jeff Buckley; the dude was just enthralled with his music. He seems like a genuine great guy, interesting. Considering how long they've been together it's nice to think that they could be one of the rare couples that can balance a Hollywood career and life.
