Celebrity love is a box of surprises, leaving us with back and forth relationships, with couples who broke up to get back together some time later or, like the ones we will see now, who discovered their better half at an age when no one could expect them to happen . It’s always a good time to fall in love, even when you already think it’s not going to happen. And that has happened in the lives of all these celebrities, surprising the world with weddings or engagements when we all thought they were happily embracing singlehood.
They are the example of ‘better late’ and ‘good things are made to wait’.
Next, we are going to review those 10 couples who found love late but… for VERY good.

Kourtney Kardashian y Travis Barker
Both had gone through other relationships – he even married – they had children and even Kourtney had refused to marry her most famous ex, Scott Disick.

They were getting married in 2022, both over 40 years old, and… it seems that theirs is FOREVER.

George y Amal Clooney
The ‘golden bachelor’ of Hollywood ceased to be after concatenating couples with whom he did not last more than two years. It was the lawyer Amal Alamuddin with whom he began his longest life and, when George was 54 years old, he married her in a romantic wedding in Venice. What’s more, if no one thought that Clooney would end up getting married, they were less likely to believe that she was forming a family: they share 2 children, Ella and Alexander.

Charles III and Camilla
We cannot say that they found love late: they had been in love for a lifetime. However, both at a mature age, they decided to go one step further and formalize their courtship. In 2005, at the age of 57 (and Camilla 58) they finally passed through the altar with the approval of Elizabeth II. And today they are the Kings of England.
