They say two is better than one, and that’s certainly true when it comes to hot celebrity couples. While many have captured our attention, not all relationships last forever. One notable example is Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello, who finalized their divorce in April 2024.
Despite their split, other celebrity couples continue to give us a glimpse of love in Hollywood. Here are some of the hottest couples — new and long-lasting — and how they met their beautiful partners.
1. Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello: From Hollywood Power Couple to Divorce in 2024
Kicking off our list is a couple that once reigned as one of the hottest in the world — Sofía Vergara and her now ex-husband, Joe Manganiello. The two were frequently featured on “hot” lists from many publications, with both actors being lauded for their striking looks and star power. However, they finalized their divorce in April 2024 after nearly a decade together.

Not only were both actors admired for their good looks, but they also leveraged their appeal throughout their careers. Vergara is best known for her role as the glamorous housewife Gloria Delgado-Pritchett on ABC’s Modern Family. Manganiello gained fame as a frequently shirtless werewolf on True Blood before becoming a regular in the Magic Mike franchise.
The pair first met in 2014 at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. At the time, Vergara was still with her ex-fiancé Nick Loeb, but Manganiello couldn’t help but be captivated by her beauty.

He wasn’t too slick about checking his future wife out, telling E! News later that year, “Yeah, I totally got busted. That was actually funny when we first started dating, months after that. We had talked I guess, or kind of bumped into each other, but we didn’t start dating until she was single. I mean, she had a boyfriend at that time, so I probably could have got in a fight for doing that. I’m not trying to start a fight at the White House.”
The two married in 2015 after six months of dating, but they didn’t withstand the test of time.

Joe and Sofia were born in 1976 and 1972, respectively, meaning she is four years older than him. Measuring 6′ 5″ (196 cm), Joe Manganiello is much taller than his 5′ 7″ (170 cm) tall wife.
2. Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo: A Decade of Love, Music, and Family
Adam Levine may be best known for being the frontman of Maroon 5 or as a judge on the star-studded singing competition The Voice. Whether or not you’re a fan of his music, there is no denying that the crooner’s multiple-time title of “Sexiest Man Alive” has been rightfully earned.

Even better, the tattooed songwriter is married to Behati Prinsloo, a Namibian model best known for her work in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows. He’s almost ten years older than her and approximately the same height.
The pair first met in 2012 when Levine searched for a model to appear in a Maroon 5 music video. He was given Prinsloo’s contact information, and the two began emailing back and forth.

While the model didn’t appear in the music video, the pair still corresponded, catching feelings online before finally meeting in person. Though not all relationships that start online end in happiness, we’re so glad neither Levine nor Prinsloo was “catfished.”
The couple married in 2014, with actor Jonah Hill officiating the wedding. They are proud parents to two daughters, Dusty Rose and Gio Grace, and welcomed their son in January 2023.
The duo has been together for over a decade and is still going strong, even in the face of cheating scandal allegations against Adam Levine in 2022.
3. John Stamos and Caitlin McHugh: TV Star Finds Lasting Love on Set
John Stamos has been the object of affection of people across the globe for years. He first captured hearts as Uncle Jesse Katsopolis on the classic sitcom Full House.
Though he has aged like wine, Stamos didn’t always have the most luck with love — that is, until he met his now-wife, actress, writer, and model Caitlin McHugh.

The couple met for the first time on the set of Law & Order: SVU — the show’s tagline of “sexually-based offenses are considered especially heinous” doesn’t make the show seem like the most romantic place for a meet-cute — in 2015.
Even better, Stamos and McHugh’s on-screen characters had a weird relationship, which he described to People: “I played a guy who was so egotistical that he thought he should spread his progeny, so he had, like, 60 kids or something. He was poking holes in condoms and stuff. And Caitlin, ironically, was one of the girls that I was trying to fool and have a baby with.”

Thankfully, Stamos is nothing like his creepy Law & Order: SVU character. He and McHugh began dating and married in 2018, welcoming their first child later that year.
4. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel: Hollywood’s Power Couple Still Going Strong
You would be a fool to think that Mr. “SexyBack” himself isn’t sexy — but luckily, equally sexy Jessica Biel is no fool.
Justin Timberlake has been beloved since his days in the hit boy band NSYNC, and his chart-topping tracks have been circulating for almost thirty years.

His wife, actress Jessica Biel, is well known for her many roles, including those in titles such as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Rules of Attraction, The Illusionist, and The A-Team.
Timberlake and Biel first met in early 2007 when the actress attended a birthday party that the musician threw for one of his friends. Timberlake asked a friend to play Wingman, who cinched the actress’ phone number for his pal.
The pair chatted on the phone, but apparently, Biel wasn’t too keen at first, as Timberlake said, “I had to be pretty persistent in order to get her to say yes, but I have a fair amount of tenacity and if I want something I stick to it. And, in the end, she agreed.”

Luckily, Jessica Biel warmed up to him and eventually married Justin Timberlake in Italy on October 19, 2012. Now, the pair have two sons together — Silas and Phineas — and are still going strong as a family.
5. Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes: A Private Love Story That Stands the Test of Time
Ryan Gosling stole hearts across the world after his role as Noah in The Notebook, cinching spots on numerous “hot” and “sexy” lists for years.
Funnily enough, the story behind Gosling’s iconic role in the film was a shock to many fans — not many other actors wanted the role because the character was what Vanity Fair describes as “essentially a piece of driftwood that existed solely for Rachel McAdams’ Allie Hamilton to climb upon whenever she felt like it.”

Additionally, Gosling was cast explicitly because the director, Nick Cassavetes, thought Gosling looked “vaguely insane” instead of a cut-and-dry heartthrob.
And yet, Ryan Gosling is still good-looking. The actor does not need a new romance, as he is married to the gorgeous Eva Mendes, who acted alongside her husband in The Place Beyond the Pines.
The actress, who is almost seven years older than him, has appeared in numerous other titles, such as We Own the Night, The Other Guys, and Girl in Progress.

The pair first met while filming The Place Beyond the Pines, in which their characters manage to find love with one another despite their misfortunes.
They have been together since then, going strong since 2011, and have two children. Both Gosling and Mendes are notoriously private about their personal life, as Mendes told Us Weekly that you won’t see her beaux or kids on her Instagram, saying, “As far as Ryan, I’ll only post flashbacks of things that are already out there, like pictures from movies we did or stuff like that. My man and kids are private.”
6. Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly: A Controversial Couple Defying the Odds
We know, we know. This couple’s inclusion on this list may be controversial, given their weird and unsettling public appearances, like that GQ article in which they tattooed one another. Still, there is no doubt that the pair is easy on the eyes.
Megan Fox is a bonafide sex symbol, famous for her iconic roles in titles such as Jennifer’s Body and the Transformers franchise.

On the other hand, Machine Gun Kelly (whose real name is Colson Baker) is a successful musician, but he isn’t conventionally attractive.
Instead, it is more of a tattooed, disheveled, looks-like-he-hasn’t-slept-in-weeks kind of way. It may not rock everybody’s boat, but social media posts show that people still love him.
The odd couple first met in 2020 while filming the indie movie Midnight in the Sweetgrass in Puerto Rico. Their attraction was immediately evident, and when they returned to Los Angeles after filming was postponed, Megan Fox and MGK were inseparable.

Now, the couple can be seen gracing the cover of nearly every tabloid and have recently gotten engaged. Fox wears a ring with strange, thorn mechanisms designed to be painful if she attempts to remove it. Weird, sure—good for them.
The sizzling duo went through a rough patch in their relationship, with breakup rumors swirling, but they have since reconciled and are now stronger than ever.
7. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds: Hollywood’s Funniest and Most Beautiful Pair
One of the best things about Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ relationship is that they’re not only gorgeous together, but they’re also funny! The pair is constantly quipping on social media, sharing their joy with the world.
You may know actress Blake Lively best from her iconic role as Serena van der Woodsen in Gossip Girl. However, the actress has been performing in more mature titles lately, such as The Age of Adaline, A Simple Favor, and the upcoming film adaptation It Ends With Us.

On the other hand, her husband found his niche in action-packed comedies, such as Green Lantern and Deadpool. He even voiced the adorable Pikachu in Pokémon: Detective Pikachu.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds first met on the set of the box office failure, Green Lantern, which Reynolds describes to Harper’s Bazaar, saying, “I met Blake on the darkest crease in the anus of the universe called Green Lantern. We were friends and buddies, and then about a year and a half later, we actually went on a double date but we were dating separate people.”

Luckily, the couple realized they were meant for one another and married in 2012. Lively and Reynolds have been together for over ten years and have four children, but they are keeping the name and gender of their latest addition a secret from the public.
8. Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum: A Low-Profile Romance Blossoming on the Red Carpet
Though low-profile, Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum are the hottest new(ish) couple of the last few years. They revealed their engagement in October 2023.
Kravitz is Hollywood royalty, the daughter of Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet. Her relatively short acting career (so far) includes notable titles such as Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Big Little Lies, and High Fidelity—not to mention that she is drop-dead gorgeous.

Meanwhile, Channing Tatum has starred in films like 21 Jump Street, Hail, Caesar!, and The Hateful Eight. The couple first met in 2017 when they both provided voiceover work for The Lego Batman Movie.

It wasn’t until years later, in 2021, when Kravitz and Tatum were confirmed to be dating. Since then, they have worked together on several projects and can be seen chatting via social media with Kravitz’s dad, Lenny.
9. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom: Pop Royalty Meets Elvish Heartthrob
If there are two things we love, it’s earworm pop songs and Lord of the Rings. Luckily, we have a couple who perfectly represent those interests: Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom!
The pop star gained worldwide acclaim in 2008 after her first Billboard Hot 100 song, “I Kissed a Girl,” and has since released hit after hit.

On the other hand, Orlando Bloom found fame early after being cast as the elvish heartthrob Legolas in The Lord of the Rings, a role he reprised for the remainder of the franchise.
Nowadays, Bloom can be Seen in Amazon’s Carnival Row, for which the actor has received rave critical reviews.

The pair first met at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2016, where sparks flew. They have been together ever since (despite a short break in 2017) and got engaged in 2019. They welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove, in August 2020.
