Sometimes celebrities find love outside of the limelight and there are also times when they believed that they’ve found their soul mate at a young age. There are celebrities who continue to be happily married with their high school sweetheart, while others ended their relationships in divorce. It makes you wonder whether or not fame had anything to do with the break-up of some of these couples. Let’s check out some of the celebrities who decided to say “I do” to their adolescent love.

Bono and Ali Hewson
Everybody knows that being married to a rock star is quite difficult. Bono could have easily succumbed to the hedonistic lifestyle of rock n’ roll, but his wife Ali keeps him grounded. These two were childhood sweethearts in Ireland and they tied the know in 1982. He married at a young age of 22.

Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley
Here’s another reason to revitalize your belief in getting hitched with rock stars. Bon Jovi and Hurley actually dated for four years in high school. The best part is that the musician actually took time off touring to elope with his sweetheart in Las Vegas secretly. They are currently together and proud parents of four kids.

Snoop Dogg and Shaunte Taylor
Not all marriages are perfect and smooth sailing. Snoop met his lady love back in high school and they were hitched in 1997. They have three kids together. However, he filed for divorce in 2004 citing irreconcilable differences. The good news is that their divorce didn’t push through and they renewed their vows fours years later.

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton
Thicke and Patton actually met at a teen night club in 1993. They dated throughout their time in high school and in college. In 2005, they got married and had their first son five years later. Unfortunately, the two decided to split in February 2014 and many speculate that it had to do with Robin’s antics with Miley Cyrus and female fans posing for a photo.

Mitt Romney and Ann Davies
The politician actually met his future wife when they were both in elementary school. However, Mitt only asked Ann out when they were teenagers. Their first date was to see The Sound of Music in theaters. It seemed that he was convinced that Ann was the one when he informally proposed to her during their high school prom. They married four years later in 1969 and have been going strong ever since with a large family of their own.
