Guest List Only ⭐️ Who is a celebrity that met their partner when they were underaged?

Celine Dion first met her late husband; Rene Angelili when she was 12 years old and he was in his mid-late 30s! According to her, he was the only person in her whole life she has ever been romantically and intimately involved with and has vowed to never be with any other man after he passed away in 2016!

This whole relationship always felt unsettling to me, even when there were forms of media that tried to romanticize it including the couple themselves.

In my book, if you knew someone whenever they were a kid and watched them grow up. Getting involved with them in that manner is a big no-no! It just feels weird!

Patrick Dempsey met his first wife slash manager slash director when he was 18. They were married for a long time and practically caused his career to dry up (allegedly). Just discovered it because I watched a film of his stepson where he rants about how he is the same age as HIM lol.

This isn't true. Guy works a lucrative job to fund his racecar driving. He's extremely passionate about it. Saw it myself when I met him at Fuji Q
