13 Celebs Who Married Normal People

Otherwise known as: missed opportunities

Even if celebs may not be just like us, some of their spouses are. Here, 13 stars who married regular ol' folk with regular ol' jobs, like lawyers, bartenders, stunt drivers...?

Jimmy Fallon And Nancy Juvonen

The Tonight Show host (and coincidentally our dream husband) married Juvonen in 2007. Ever wondered why Fallon and Drew Barrymore are such good friends? Juvonen is Barrymore's film-producing partner. They met on the set of Fever Pitch and now have two daughters (with totally normal names): Franny and Winnie.

Seth Meyers And Alexi Ashe

Host of Late Night, Meyers wed Ashe, a lawyer and human-rights activist, on Martha’s Vineyard in 2013. But she's adjusted to fame well--Brad Paisley sang for their first wedding dance.

spouse12

Tina Fey And Jeff Richmond

Mega-funny lady Fey dated Richmond for seven years before she married him in 2001. Richmond is a composer, producer and director (who is responsible for a handful of 30 Rock episodes, not to mention its theme song).

spouse2

Julia Roberts And Danny Moder

The Oscar-winning actress has been married to her cinematographer husband for 13 years. They met while working on The Mexican and now live on a ranch in Arizona.

spouse6

Matt Damon And Luciana Barroso

Damon stumbled upon Barroso, a bartender, when he was filming Stuck on You in Miami. (Fun fact: One of PureWow's very own writers witnessed this meet-cute in action.) The couple has been married since 2005.

spouse9

Scarlett Johansson And Romain Dauriac

Shocker: Johansson attracts gorgeous French journalist. Gorgeous couple weds. Gorgeous daughter is born.

Joseph Gordon-levitt And Tasha Mccauley

Of all the plebeian spouses, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's may have the coolest job: CEO of a robotics company.

spouse7

Julianna Margulies And Keith Lieberthal

The Good Wife met Lieberthal at a dinner party she almost didn’t attend. When she found out he was not an actor but a Dartmouth-educated lawyer, she was sold. They married in 2007.

spouse4

Julie Bowen And Scott Phillips

A study in opposite-personalities attract, the self-proclaimed anxious actress has been married to the "calming" Phillips, a real-estate investor and software developer, since 2004.

spouse5

Jesse Tyler Ferguson And Justin Mikita

It must run in the Modern Family. Ferguson married his longtime love, a lawyer, in 2013. They asked guests to donate to their marriage-equality charity, Tie the Knot, in lieu of gifts.

spouse3

Christian Bale And Sibi Blazic

Bale and Blazic--a makeup artist and cameo stunt-driver--met through mutual friend Winona Ryder. The result: They’ve been married for 15 years.

Oprah Winfrey And Stedman Graham

Graham, the CEO of an educational-marketing firm, has stood by the talk-show host and billionaire's side since 1986. At this point, they might as well be married.

spouse13

Meryl Streep And Don Gummer

Too cool for anyone in Hollywood, Streep wed Kentucky-born, accomplished sculptor Don Gummer. They’ve been married since 1978 and have four grown children together, including Mamie, who stars opposite Streep in Ricki and the Flash.

Lousy baker, stellar shopping buddy

You can find Susan either blissfully buried in a pile of clothes or on a plane between L.A. and NYC.
