10 Celebrities Who Married Their Biggest Fans

We’ve all had celebrity crushes at some point in our lives. But picture what it would be like if you could actually date that person! Several celebrities have married the renowned crushes they once cherished.

It may sound like a fairy tale, but it is a reality for a few lucky people, and we at Bright Side are here to keep your fantasies of dating your celebrity crush alive.

1. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Katie Holmes had a crush on Tom Cruise since she was 15 years old, and she even had a poster of the actor on her wall. Later, in 2004, she claimed that she “used to think she was going to marry Tom Cruise,” and only a few months later, in May 2005, Holmes achieved her wish and began dating him. Despite the love and Suri, their child who was born in 2006, the couple eventually divorced in 2012.

2. Justin and Hailey Bieber

A generation of Justin Bieber fans dreamed of marrying him, and one of them did: Hailey Bieber (Baldwin). When Hailey was 12 years old, her father Stephen Baldwin took her to a Justin Bieber fan meeting. After several years, she and Justin Bieber fell in love and got engaged in 2018. A year later, they got married in South Carolina.

The couple’s genuine affection for one another is always shared on their Instagram profile. Hailey claimed: “There are a lot of amazing and beautiful things about this life, but the most beautiful part is that I get to live it with you. I love you...”

3. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have come a long way since announcing their love in 2016.
However, it seemed that Harry was a tremendous admirer of her Suits character, Rachel Zane.
So, basically, the Prince had quite a crush on Meghan Markle 2 years before they have even talked for the first time.

“He had a crush on Rachel Zane 2 years before he met Meghan, and the reason I know is that I was with one of his friends,” a royal expert declared during an interview. “She [Harry’s friend] told me she’d been on a night out with Prince Harry. He was single at the time, so she said, ’Harry, who’s your ideal girl?’ And he said, ’Meghan Markle from Suits.’”

4. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have 2 gorgeous children and have been married since 2015. Before starting a family, they were simply co-stars on That ’70s Show. Although Kunis and Kutcher are now blissfully married, their relationship during the production of the series was far more casual.

However, Kunis claims she had the “greatest infatuation” with her future husband while filming the series. The famous actress even had her first kiss with Kutcher. “I was like, ’Oh, he’s so cute, it’s the Calvin Klein model,’” she said. “Then I was like, ’I have to kiss him?’ I was so nervous and uncomfortable. I had the biggest crush on him.”

5. Alexis Bledel and Vincent Kartheiser

After they met on the set of Vincent’s show, Mad Men, the Gilmore Girls actress, left an indelible mark on him. Though Vincent and Alexis were “totally professional” when working on Mad Men, co-star Jon Hamm suspected there was a lot more going underneath. “I did know he liked her from a very early point,” John confessed.

6. Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox

They met on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass and immediately hit it off. During an interview with GQ, Machine Gun Kelly (real name Colson Baker) disclosed some of the life ambitions that he’s achieved. According to what he stated, Machine Gun Kelly is dating his high school crush, Megan Fox.

The singer has admitted to GQ that he had a poster of Fox on his wall. Fox and Kelly got engaged in January 2022 after dating for a year and a half.

7. John Krasinski and Emily Blunt

John Krasinski is really not afraid of admitting that he’s adored his now-wife, Emily Blunt, for as long as they’ve known one other. During an interview, Krasinski stated that his favorite film was The Devil Wears Prada, a 2006 romantic comedy starring Emily Blunt. “I’m lucky enough that she stayed with me and didn’t realize that she had really married her stalker!” Krasinski joked.

Even before meeting her, he said that she was his first choice. Krasinski fell in love with Blunt the moment he met her in a café in Los Angeles. He declared: “I was so nervous. I was like, ’Oh god, I think I’m going to fall in love with her.’ As I shook her hand, I went, ’I like you.’”

8. Prince Harry and Kate Middleton

Prince William and Kate Middleton have an adolescent love story with an adorable happy ending. They started dating while both were students at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, where they shared an off-campus accommodation. Their relationship became public in 2004, and they got married in 2010.

In her book, royal expert and biographer Katie Nicholl reveals that a former roommate companion of Kate’s from her boarding school outed her for having a big crush on her future husband back in the day. She said that Kate would joke, “There’s no one quite like William.”

The friend even confessed that the Duchess of Cambridge had a poster of Prince William hung on her wall. Kate later denied this, but her husband loves joking about it.

9. Katherine Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt

Nearly a year before they started dating, the author of The Gift of Forgiveness thought her future spouse was her favorite. The couple became romantically involved in the summer of 2018 and married a year later. They had their first child together, a baby girl, last year.

During an interview, Schwarzenegger was asked to choose which famous Chris she was most into: Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, or Chris Pratt. “Chris Evans,” she said, before retracting her response. “Actually, Chris Pratt. Chris Pratt has been looking good lately, so you never know!”

When the clip of this interview was shown to Pratt years later, he was shocked. “That’s so sweet. I literally have never seen that before, so thank you for showing me that,” he said, looking “really moved” by the clip.

10. Jamie Lee Curtis and Christopher Guest

Jamie Lee Curtis has been married to Christopher Guest since 1984. Curtis said she had an immediate connection with Guest.

“Debra Hill and I were flipping through a Rolling Stone magazine when I turned to a photograph of 3 men,” Curtis claimed. “I looked at the man on the right, wearing a plaid shirt and a waggish smirk. I’d never seen him before, but I pointed at him. ’I’m going to marry that man,’ I said to my friend.” That man was Christopher Guest.

Who would you date if you had the chance to meet your celebrity crush? Have you ever wished you could marry one of the celebs mentioned above?

In 2022, Tom Cruise was voted “the most attractive actor of all time” by 2,000 mothers worldwide in a survey by Showcase Cinemas. This recognition followed the release of “Top Gun: Maverick,” reigniting admiration for the 60-year-old star’s enduring charm. Cruise’s appeal, reminiscent of his roles in classics like “Top Gun” and “Cocktail,” remains undiminished, proving his timeless allure in the film industry.
