We all love to see it when a person who lives in the limelight finds love with someone who is so-called “normal” — someone who does their own grocery shopping and works regular hours to make a regular paycheck. Maybe it’s because we like to fantasize about the possibility of finding love with a celebrity ourselves…or maybe it’s because romances like these prove that love knows no boundaries.
In the new film Beyond the Lights, premiering on Friday, November 14, pop star Noni falls in love with a police officer named Kaz, assigned to protecting her. In honor of the unlikely yet heartwarming relationship depicted in the movie, we’ve decided to pay tribute to 10 celebrity love affairs with normal people.
1. Kevin Jonas and Danielle Deleasa: Jonas spotted the former Jersey hairdresser while both were on vacation in the Bahamas with their families. He approached her, and their love blossomed from there. The two are now married and have a daughter.
2. Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman: The Hunger Games star met her now-husband, a sportswriter and producer, in college in 1992. Banks converted to Judaism upon marrying her true love, and the couple has two sons.
3. Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman: Hathaway’s own princess diaries came true when she married the jewelry designer in 2012, a few years after her previous beau was sent to prison on serious fraud charges.
