As the saying goes, age is nothing but a number. And in Hollywood, celebrity couples with significant age differences are nothing new.
While they may raise eyebrows, May-December romances are common and actually work in the entertainment industry.
Take for example Jay-Z and Beyonce, who have a 12-year age gap. There’s also Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively with an 11-year difference, George Clooney and Amal Clooney with 17 years, and Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas with a 10-year age gap.
In 2018, actress Robin Wright joined the list of celebrities who are married to someone years younger than them.
Known for her portrayal of Claire Underwood in the Netflix political drama web television series House of Cards, Robin Wright attended the season 6 premiere on October 22, 2018
