From steamy hook-ups to less than amicable break-ups, we’ve come up with the top 10 celebrity couples we wish never broke up!
10. Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler
Musician Travis Barker and model Shanna Moakler, were married from 2004 until 2008. They have two children together, son Landon, 4, and daughter Alabama, 2. Remember when these two took to MySpace to bash each other after one of their break-ups? While we don’t miss that, we do miss them as a couple though!
9. Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson
Actor Owen Wilson and actress Kate Hudson have evidently gone their separate ways, but we still wish they were together. The stars were on and off for a few years, tracing back to 2006. Wilson now has a baby boy with ex-girlfriend Jade Duell and Hudson added to her family, giving birth to a baby boy, Bingham 'Bing' Hawn Bellamy, with her fiancé, Muse front-man Matthew Bellamy.
8. Jim Carey and Jenny McCarthy
Funny-guy Jim Carey and activist Jenny McCarthy dated for a whopping five years before officially calling it quits in April of 2010. The couple had an amicable break-up. Both superstars have been linked to other famous people but neither are in a serious relationship as of now. Reconcile, please?
7. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens
Teen heartthrobs Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens began dating in 2006 and officially called it quits in late 2010. The High School Musical lovebirds grew up together on set and still remain good friends. Fiercely good looking Efron has not been in an exclusive relationship since, whereas, Hudgens is, with beau Austin Butler.
6. Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush
TV personality Kim Kardashian and Miami Dolphin’s running back, Reggie Bush, seemed like the perfect couple but that relationship came to an end after dating from 2007-2010. Since then, Kardashian has dated half of Hollywood, including a quickie marriage to Kris Humphries, a NJ Nets player, and Bush has been linked to a Kim Kardashian look-alike. Reportedly, these two may get back together! Do we believe the mags though?
5. Katy Perry and Russell Brand
We can’t believe bubbly pop singer Katy Perry and comedian Russell Brand are over already! The duo, who seemed to be the perfect match, started dating in 2009, got engaged shortly after their first hook-up, and were married by 2010. After 14 months together, they hopped on the Hollywood bandwagon of failed celebrity marriages.
4. Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake
Even though pop princess Britney Spears and singer Justin Timberlake have been done for many, many years and are both engaged, we can still wish they would get back together, right? This former couple dated for a few years back in the mid 1990’s, officially breaking things off in 2002. Today, Timberlake is reportedly engaged to actress Jessica Biel and Spears is set to marry for the third time to Jason Trawick.
3. Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey
Fashion designer Jessica Simpson and former 98 Degree’s singer Nick Lachey met in 1998. They started dating immediately, briefly breaking up in 2001. By 2002, they had reunited and gotten married, but by 2005 they filed for divorce. This former couple let America in on their marriage through their show Newlyweds and that’s how everyone fell in love with them! Simpson is now pregnant with her fiancé Eric Johnson's baby and Lachey re-married with Vanessa Minnillo.
2. Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt
Why did this fairytale romance have to come to an end? After five years of marriage, Aniston found herself in a love triangle tangled between her now former husband, Pitt, and Angelina Jolie. Aniston and Pitt met in 1998 on a blind date and got married in 2000. By 2005, they were donezo! Aniston has been linked with some of Hollywood’s bad boys, but now she’s settled with Justin Theroux, and as for Pitt, we know how he settled.
1. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
When bootylicious diva, Jennifer Lopez, and Latin singing sensation, Marc Anthony tied the knot, we believed Lopez had finally found her true love, but we were wrong. We were actually shocked due to the fact that a month before their split, the duo gave a steamy performance together on the American Idol stage! Longtime friends, Lopez and Anthony married in 2004 and by July of 2011, the hot couple gave a joint statement that they were divorcing after seven years of marriage and twins, Max and Emme, both 4-years-old.
