Hollywood’s 10 Happiest Couples, Secrets to a Long Lasting Marriage

6. Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart

Now 83-year-old Harrison Ford used all his life experience to create a happy 15-year marriage to 61-year-old Calista Flockhart – and it all started with a spilled glass of wine at an after-party.

“She spilled wine on me, or I spilled wine on her or something, and that sealed the deal,” he recalled.

Ford also believes that romance has no expiration date: “Old people can love too. You know, you think about falling in love and all that stuff, you think it’s the business of youth or something, and staying in love is the issue. Maintaining it, nurturing it, basically, not ruining it.”

Flockhart added, “We’ve had to work. We’ve had our ups, we’ve had downs like everyone else – mostly ups, which is good – and we just stick together. He’s the person I want to call when something happens. That knee-jerk thing where I have to call Harrison.”

5. Tom Selleck and Jillie Mack

Tom Selleck, now 80, secretly married actress Jillie Mack, 68, in 1987, but the secret behind their happiness is no secret at all.

“I get up before Jillie and put the tea kettle on, so when she gets up her tea water is hot,” Selleck said. “I think I’m quite romantic.”

He gushed: “Jillie has this kind of zest for life – this effervescent quality that just lights up a room. Besides being my wife, she’s also my friend.”

They also escaped the spotlight and headed to a 65-acre farm in Hidden Valley, California – once owned by Dean Martin – where they raise horses and avocados. Selleck said, “It took a long time to get off the train, but I do my best to keep balance, and this ranch has helped me do that.”
