Yes, 2009 feels like three weeks ago until you realize that’s the same year the iPhone 3GS came out. Remember that? Kevin and Danielle got married at a gorgeous estate in New Jersey, and nobody tried to crash it. It was a low-key affair compared to the madness of their tours. For context, Kevin was 22 years old — an age where most of us are still trying to figure out if we can afford guacamole.
Today, their marriage has outlasted every sitcom, three presidents, and the entire Twilight franchise (including the weird vampire baby). That’s no small feat. Sixteen years is like the marathon of commitment where other couples run out of steam at mile eight.
The Secret Sauce (Spoiler: It’s Not Elaborate)
What’s their secret? According to Kevin, it’s humor and patience. You know, the same things you need to assemble IKEA furniture or survive a family road trip. In interviews, he’s said they don’t take each other too seriously. Like that time Danielle accidentally locked herself out of the house in her pajamas, and Kevin made a joke about her “prison break” look.
They also have two daughters: Alena and Valentina. Kevin once admitted that date night now means eating a whole pizza in bed at 8 p.m. while the kids are asleep. Relatable, right? It’s not candlelit dinners and yacht parties. It’s surviving bedtime and still saying “I love you” in the morning.
