If there’s one hard and fast rule when it comes to matters of the heart…
It’s that there are no rules. And there’s little rhyme or reason as to why some couples work out and some don’t. There are many fish in the sea and few agree on what makes the perfect catch.
Some women seek out guys who have a few years on them in age, all the better to increase the possibility of matching maturity levels (it’s science, people). Others prefer dating guys who are the same age, or very close to it, figuring you have more in common that way. And yet sometimes the younger guys have it, for whatever reason—less baggage, more fun, less set in his ways, fewer exes, less baggage, who knows?
Age doesn’t really matter when it comes to love with these celebrities. These celebrities have found their match in partners more than 10 years or 20 years older than them.
Here are the American female actresses with a big age gap between them.
Hugh Jackman and Deborra Lee-Furness

With a 12-year age difference between them, it is not clear what keeps Wolverine so faithful when he could do much better.
Married since 1994, they form one of the most enduring couples in showbiz. Their story reaches a bit the emotional side, as they were unable to have children.
After suffering two miscarriages, Deborra and Jak adopted two babies. Their son, Oscar Maximillian, is now 15, while their daughter, Ava Eliot, is now 10.
Deborra appreciated so much the possibility of having children via adoption that she supported a campaign to raise awareness and encourage others to do the same.
In 2014, Deborra became the “New South Wales Australian of the Year” for her work in adoption campaigning. (viraliq.com)

“American Horror Story” star Paulson, 43, has been dating the 75-year-old Taylor since early 2015. Paulson confirmed their relationship in an interview with the New York Times in 2016.
Madonna and Timor Steffens

Madonna stole any record with one of her numerous flings – Timor Steffens. A 29-year gap exists between the two!!
In a statement to the press which sounded a bit creepy, the boyfriend confessed that he likes dating older women because they remind him of his mother.
Timor also added that he has a lot to learn. We will not do the dirty job of tabloids and comment that, but we cannot stop from highlighting the grotesque of the situation. At the age of 57, Madonna shows no sign of restraining herself from stealing the spotlight with such stories.
Though reportedly broke up in August 2014, a handful of younger men, including ex-husband Guy Ritchie, have also romanced the singer over the years. During an interview with Howard Stern, Madonna dropped a bombshell when she said the late Tupac Shakur is on the list. (viraliq.com)
Sharon Stone and Martin Mica

Sharon Stone is walking closely behind Madonna in the chart where we put the celebrities who want younger men.
With a 27-year age difference between Stone and Martin Mica, her new boy-toy, we are not sure what to say to avoid offending her.
If you take a look at the two, you end up with a classical “grandma taking his favorite nephew around town” scenario. However much we want to remember the Sharon Stone crossing her legs in “Basic Instinct,” we are left with someone desperately needing tons of makeup and plastic surgery to hide the signs of aging.
We cannot dare to imagine what is the engine driving forward the 27-year-old Argentinean model in this relationship, but we can bet he has a strong fetish on old ladies, with money and fame behind them. (viraliq.com)
Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble

Kris Jenner might be one of the most toxic characters in American showbiz, and she is lending a bit of that controversy in her love life.
Mother of the Kardashian siblings, she rose to fame due to the reality TV show “Keeping up with the Kardashians.” Now at the age of 60, Kris is dating Corey Gamble, a relationship which started in late 2014, after the divorce from Caitlyn/Bruce Jenner.
We won’t go into more details on this tangled story involving transgender drama and made-up stars. It is enough to point out that now Kris Jenner is looking for some young blood to bring in her life, a trend which is popular in the showbiz world. (viraliq.com)

Way before he was known as JT and long ago when this gorgeous girl was known as Stacy Ferguson. The two dated in 1996 when Timberlake was a teen sensation at 16-years-old and into the older girls like Fergie, who was 23. At this point in time, Fergie was 1 of the 3 girls in the group, Wild Orchid. “He was 16 and I was 23,” Fergie told Australia’s Courier Mail. “It was before he got real heavy with Britney.” (20 celebrity couples that you never knew dated)
Eva Mendez and Ryan Gosling

Eva Mendes, 42, and Ryan Gosling, 35: It’s not too much of a brain-teaser to fathom why the actress fell for her Place Beyond the Pines co-star. The seven-year age difference could have been an issue if they had wanted different things, but obviously the now longtime partners were on the same page and are now parents to two daughters together, 1 1/2-year-old Esmeralda and 2 1/2-month-old Amada Lee.

Miranda Klerr and Evan Spiegel

Miranda Kerr, 34, Victoria’s Secret model and ex-wife of Orlando Bloom, Evan Spiegel, the somewhat younger billionaire founder of Snapchat. For one thing, Kerr said, she and Spiegel, 26, had agreed to stay abstinent until their marriage, Kerr told the Times of London.
Perhaps to reflect this more traditional approach to dating and betrothal, Kerr decided to go for a very restrained, even virginal look for the gown she wore for their nuptials. Kerr’s Vogue interview offers up an exclusive look at the Haute Couture Dior gown she wore for the very intimate ceremony that took place before 45 or so guests in the garden of their Brentwood mansion.
Though Kerr has often been photographed wearing very little, she sought long sleeves and a high neck to wear while exchanging her vows, Vogue said.
“A dress that fully covers you creates a sense of purity and mystery,” Kerr explained.
Like many excited brides, Kerr began dreaming of the dress she’d wear for her big day shortly after she and Spiegel became engaged in July 2016. She added that “in this period of my life, my style is more pulled back.” (siliconvalley.com)
Julianna Margulies and Keith Lieberthal

The Emmy winner and her lawyer husband tied the knot in 2007 and she later applauded herself for waiting till she was 41 to get married. “I feel very grateful that I had the courage to say no when I did and say yes when I could, that I waited to find the right mate and to have this little family,” the mom of son Kieran told Good Housekeeping in 2013. “There’s something about this time in my life where I feel like it’s never going to get better.”
Margulies recalled meeting her husband at a dinner party that, of course, she wasn’t at first planning to attend, telling Ellen DeGeneres in 2011: “I said, ‘Are you an actor? Because as much as I love you all, I can’t. I’m done.’ And he’s like, ‘No, I’m a lawyer.’ I’m like, ‘Really? Where do you practice?’ And he’s like, ‘I was a Wall Street litigator for six years.’ I was like ‘Really? You’re 12.’ He’s like, ‘No, I’m not.'” (E! Online)

Victoria “Vicki” Gonzales Belo-Kho was born on January 25,1956. That means Vicki Belo’s age now is 62.
Hayden Kho, Jr., on the other hand, was born May 20, 1980. The 6 foot 3 inches doctor is now 38 years old.
The relationship of celebrity doctors Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho has been repeatedly put to the test — from sex video scandals in 2009 to alleged third parties. Despite all these, the two managed to be “unofficially together” again in 2013, with Belo admitting last year that they are once again talking about marriage. The two have been a couple for more than a decade and tied the knot through a civil ceremony last June, 2017. She and Hayden have a two-year old daughter Scarlet Snow who is the most followed baby on Instagram in the Philippines. (ABS-CBN News)

Don’t look now, but Tiya Pusit, the dynamic 65-year-old comedienne, is set to marry her 27-year-old foreigner boyfriend sometime next year. Tiya Pusit, who was widowed 19 years ago, is in high spirits even if the boyfriend insists on keeping his name out of the public eye, although she admitted that she has no sex life at the moment because her hypertension landed her in the hospital the last time she tried it with her beau.

Madam Auring and Archie Mendoza

Ah, yes. In 2004, this doozy of a relationship was the very one that led us to seeing the infamous fortune teller in bathing suit photo ops, proclaiming her “asim” to still be as strong as ever. While this sham was unsettling enough as is, leave it to Madame Auring to make things worse by not looking at her crystal ball before she declared her intention of marrying Archie, who, while claiming to be 20 at the time, turned out to be 15 or 16 years of age. At the time, Madame Auring was 61. (ph.news.yahoo.com)
