With just three years between them, Van Hunt and Halle Berry don’t have the biggest age gap on this list but we’re still saying they count!

The singer-songwriter began dating the Oscar-winning actress in 2020 and have been going strong ever since. 

“It was the first time I was madly in love before I had sex,” Berry opened up in an interview with Marie Claire in September 2024. “That has never happened to me, ever,” she says. “Talk about one of those life-changing, beautiful experiences. It was magical, just magical.”

Kim Cattrall’s non-famous beau is 14 years younger than her. The couple started dating in 2016.

In 2023, Cattrall said in an interview that she had a “late-blooming sexuality” and only came into her own in her 40s before she started dating Thomas. 

“It’s asking for what you want,” she said in the Modern Love podcast. “It’s showing what you want. Most men don’t have a clue — not the anatomy. They know that. But what in particular works for you? And most women, they’re too nervous, too anxious, or they haven’t done their homework to find out what feels good.”

The 7-year age gap between Cameron Diaz and her husband Benji Madden almost never comes up — but that’s just because we barely see these two out and about together since their marriage in 2015. They welcomed a baby girl named Raddix in 2020 and a son, Cardinal in 2024. 

“Getting married to him was the best thing that ever happened to me,” Diaz told InStyle about her musical husband, per E! News. “My husband’s the best. He’s the greatest human being, and he’s my great partner. Marriage is certainly hard, and it’s a lot of work. You need somebody who’s willing to do the work with you, because there’s no 60-40 in marriage. It’s 50-50, period. All the time.”

Priyanka Chopra and the 10-years younger Nick Jonas first met when he sent a flirty DM in 2016 but Chopra says she initially didn’t take the bait due to their age gap. 

“I didn’t give it much of a chance because I was like, ‘He’s 25 years old, he’s a rockstar. I want to get married, I want to settle down, I want to have a baby.’ I was 35 at the time,” she told Today in 2023.

That changed after their first date in 2018, seven months before their wedding. “I wanted stability, and I didn’t give Nick enough credit until I went out with him on our first date. We spent the whole evening together, and I realized my husband is just like an old soul. He’s stability in human form,” she said. The couple are parents to their daughter, Malti.

Corey Gamble

Kardashian momager Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble have been dating for years since 2014. The pair have a 25-year age difference.

“I used to say to Corey all the time when I first started dating him, ‘Why do you want to date somebody who is older than you?'” Jenner said in an episode of The Kardashians. “I didn’t get the age gap, and then he taught me that age is just a number. It’s a f— big number, but it’s a number!”

“Listen, I can’t explain someone’s chemistry or why people fall in love but it’s been an amazing almost 10 years, and we have a great time,” she added.

Kerr and Spiegel are parents to three sons, Hart, Myles and Pierre, in addition to Bloom and Kerr’s son Flynn.

“I never even thought that this kind of love was possible,” the former Victoria’s Secret Angel told Vogue. “To meet someone I connected with so well, and who is continually working on themselves every day like I’m working on myself to be the best partner, the best mother, to constantly want to grow and evolve, that is something both of us are really committed to. And it’s really incredible to have a partner who wants to grow with you in the same direction.”

“I’ve got the best man,” Hudson told Women’s Health about her fiancé. “It’s the first time I feel like I have a real teammate in this. We’re able to pick up where the other one has to leave off.”

“If I have to go to a dinner meeting, he can be home,” she added. “His number one priority is family. And when we have our disputes, I feel the thing that allows us to get through them is having the same ultimate goal, and that includes being in each other’s life. It just feels so nice.”

“He is the most amazing person,” Klum gushed about her husband to SheKnows in 2022. “A lot of people were, you know, not giving us the positive vibes when we first started dating because I’m 16 years older than him. But I feel like, there too, if it feels right when you close your door at home and you know what you have together, I think that is the most important thing.”

“You have to cut out all the noise around you. Not everyone is always cheering you on in all things that you do,” she added. “But I feel like you’ve got to do what makes you happy. And he made me happy. And we’re still happy and having a great time together.”

My knees were weak. It was amazing. And it was very hard for me to get her out of my mind after that.”

In September 2024, Hawn got spicy explaining the secret to their longtime bond. “You have to have good sex,” she told E! News. “Because sex is something that connects you and creates more belonging. People who have healthy sexual relationships usually last a lot longer. But it’s not just because of the act, it’s because of the warmth and the intimacy that it creates.”

“I just love the fact that we met and we still doing it,” Russell added. “We still like being together.”

Over the years, they haven’t shied away from defending their relationship. “What you gotta realize … is that what most people were doing in their 20s, I was doing when I was 13,” Taylor-Johnson told Rolling Stone UK in March 2024. “You’re doing something too quickly for someone else? I don’t understand that. What speed are you supposed to enjoy life at? It’s bizarre to me.”

They have a 32-year age difference, making them one of Hollywood’s biggest age gap couples!

“If my life choices had to be predicated based on what was expected of me from a community on either side, that’s going to make me feel really straitjacketed, and I don’t want to feel that,” Paulson said about the criticisms to The New York Times. “What I can say absolutely is that I am in love, and that person happens to be Holland Taylor.”
