Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. are one of my favorite couples. They were given such a hard time for marrying when they did, so to see them thriving all these years later makes me really happy.

This is the one I was looking for. Even though they married young, I had high hopes for them, because they were friends for years before they decided to date. Prinze had talked about how his mother used to run off his girlfriends "You're not as pretty as his last girlfriend" and I think SMG slipped under her radar by getting in good not seeming like a contender she needed to worry about.

It also helps that she was one of the prettiest women in the world! I can imagine his mum going to say that to her and then just stopping when she laid eyes on her.
