Society's love affair with celebrity romances are as old as gossip itself. No-one really knows why we feel a pang of sadness when the hero cheats or the heroine "doesn't want to ruin her career with a baby" so they divorce, and rip each other to shreds. Why DO we care about these people who have no idea that we even exist? Is it purely aspirational? If so, then my golden couple to idolise right now has to be Chrissy Teigen & John Legend...
1) They seem REAL, well as real as you can seem to be.
She shows us her stretchmarks, he talks about his humble beginnings...
2) They are sucessful apart, but even better as a power couple.
She's working on her very own cookbook, he's hopefully working on his 6th studio album.
3) Meals don't seem to be the equivalent of negotiating a pre-nup.
Just eat!
4) They probably don't agree on everything. Any couple who doesn't fight, is lying. It's absolutely impossible to agree on everything.
5) They build together. If a New York apartment isn't part of your architectural dreams we can't be friends! Only I have architectural dreams? Oh well.
6) They laugh. All the time.
7) They have fun! And enjoy being able to also just "do nothing" together.
Possibly the most important part of a relationship, that and being silly together.
Of course assumptions made purely by appearances are obviously very questionable in the age of Amaro, Valencia, and the other culprits. Either way, "must be nice" to pull off such a lovely aesthetic.
We've already lost the only hope Hollywood had at a lasting couple when Bennifer broke up. Not to mention the loss of the only humour (besides Khloe's quick wit) in the Kardashian klan with the exit of the Lord.
