Catherine and Michael are couple goals! The pair have been together since 1998 and appear to be going from strength to strength, cementing their status as one of Hollywood's most beloved power couples.

The duo got engaged in December 1999 and tied the knot one year later at New York's Plaza Hotel. Musing on the secret to their happy marriage, Catherine told Good Housekeeping: "It's a long road and I think people today are so quick to throw in the towel on marriage.

"You have to give it your best shot and not give up when the first problem arises, because that won't be the last problem. There will be many more down the road."

In August 2000, Michael and Catherine welcomed their first child Dylan, before going on to tie the knot in November that year.

Three years later, they welcomed their daughter Carys on Easter Sunday. During a chat with PEOPLE magazine, Catherine revealed: "I never wanted Dylan to be an only child. Because of my amazing relationship with my siblings, I couldn't see him being the Little Lord Dylan on his own."

Their eldest child Dylan graduated from Brown University in 2022, while Carys is seemingly exploring a career in modelling and has appeared in several magazines alongside her famous mother.

Film producer Michael is also a doting father to a son called Cameron from his former marriage to Diandra Lucker.
