Down the aisle with an idol: 5 stars who got married with their fans
Celebrities capture our hearts and minds - it's a common thing. Often, we fantasize about how they will lead us down the aisle. Although the likelihood of this happening in real life is negligible, there have been cases where celebrities have started relationships with their fans.
Strangely enough, the number of such happy couples exceeds what one might assume at first glance. SSPDaily shared several examples of such fateful meetings between fans and celebrities that led to long love stories.
Reese Witherspoon
Reese Witherspoon, primarily known for her roles in various popular films, vowed not to date anyone from the film industry after her high-profile divorce from her first husband, actor Ryan Phillippe. So, understanding her stance, Jim Toth, a well-known movie agent, refrained from approaching her when they first crossed paths at a Hollywood event.
However, fate had other plans and brought them closer when Jim found himself defending Reese from a drunken fan. Their meeting eventually turned into a 12-year marriage that ended in divorce in March 2023.
Justin Bieber
Julia Roberts, a famous Hollywood star, had an admirer in the person of cinematographer Daniel Moder. Daniel's admiration was so ardent that when he got a job on the set of the movie "The Mexican" with Julia in the lead role, his wife begged him to refuse the offer.
Unfortunately for Daniel's wife, her intuition was correct. Julia and Daniel ended their previous relationships to build a future together. The couple has three children.
Jessica Alba
When Cash Warren, who was just an assistant at the time, met Jessica Alba, she was already engaged to another famous actor. Despite this, the couple felt an instant connection when they met.
Incredibly, Cash's parents said that their son had expressed a desire to marry Jessica three years before he met her. The couple has been happily married for 15 years and has three children.
Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber, a famous heartthrob, found a fan in Hailey Baldwin, the daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin. They have known each other since high school.
The couple had an on-and-off relationship but eventually tied the knot. In September 2023, Justin and Hailey celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary.
Patrick Dempsey
Patrick Dempsey, known for his role in the popular TV series Grey's Anatomy, unexpectedly discovered love in an unusual place - a hairdresser's shop. It was there that he crossed paths with stylist Jillian Fink, who initially mistook his name on the client list for a prank from her colleagues.
Patrick immediately took a liking to Jillian and frequented the hair salon. They quickly fell in love and walked down the aisle the same year. The couple is currently raising three children.
