27+ Celebrity Couples Who Withstood the Test of Time

Actress Brooke Shields gained fame at a young age through modeling and acting, while her husband Chris Henchy is a producer and screenwriter. The two were introduced to each other by a mutual friend in 1999 and immediately hit it off, getting married two years later in 2001. This is Brooke’s second marriage, after her first one ended in only two years.

Chris Henchy actually proposed to Brooke Shields in 2000, when they were on a trip to Mexico together.
