In both love and comedy, these guys have vowed to always be there for each other. When it comes to the love side of things, their 5’1” vs. 6’2” height difference definitely makes them stand out. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are partners in crime that have been making us smile ever since they kicked off their satirical music video remakes. Then, their Hollywood films and adorable social media videos always have us in stitches.
The pair started dating in 2007. Three years later, they announced their engagement. Together, they’ve appeared in Veronica Mars, When in Rome, Hit and Run, and CHiPs. They seem to be inseparable even on screen. After delaying their marriage, the two finally dove in after Shepard proposed for a second time on Twitter! Of course, Kristen Bell said yes… again.
Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly
If you’re an avid fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you’re pretty familiar with Paul Bettany. He is the voice of J.A.R.V.I.S., and eventually became Vision. He also starred in popular films, like Da Vinci Code, Dogville, Inkheart, Legion, Creation, A Beautiful Mind. Bettany was fortunate to have met the love of his life in the same industry.
Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly first met when they starred in A Beautiful Mind. However, it seems it just wasn’t the right time back then. They were both in other relationships while they were filming. Bettany admitted that Connelly was his crush, ever since he saw her in Labyrinth. Soon after, he realized that his crush was actually full-blown love, and he contacted her. In 2003, they got married in Scotland, and are now happy with their children, Stellan and Agnes.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley rose to notoriety as one of the infamous Victoria’s Secret Angels. She is also the face of other famous brands, like Burberry and Marks & Spencer. From modelling, she’s spread her wings with roles in Transformer: Dark of the Moon and Mad Max: Fury Road. Behind the angelic appearance of the top model, lies a very feisty actress. Feisty and tall—the actress and model, at 5’9”, towers over her action star partner.
Since 2010, Rosie has been in a relationship with action megastar, Jason Statham. The Crank actor announced in 2016 that he would be marrying his statuesque sweetheart. Later on, they welcomed Jack Oscar Statham as the newest member of their family. With not a care in the world about their height difference, we wish this sweet little family all the best!
Kate Middleton and Prince William
There has got to be a spot for a royal couple on this list. And today, we’re giving that space to Kate Middleton and Prince William. The Princess of Wales is already gifted with height, standing at a stately 5’9”. But there’s something about the prince’s blue blood that’s seen him soar to a staggering 6’3”. Such towering figures are only fitting for royalty. People will not only look up to them as monarchs, but also because of their height.
Kidding aside, Kate Middleton studied art history at the University of St. Andrews. She first met the prince in 2003. Both were students at the time. Eight years later, they became husband and wife at the Westminster Abbey. At present, they are parents to three children who are already in line for inheriting the throne… and perhaps their parents’ height too?
Vanessa Hudgens & Austin Butler
If Ashley Tisdale is on this list, we’d better include Vanessa Hudgens! Just like Ashley Tisdale, Hudgens also partnered with a guy who’s more than 10 inches taller than her. The High School Musical star’s relationship with co-star, Zac Efron, seemed to be working out well at first.
Of course, everyone was hoping for the Troy-Gabriella love team to play out in real life, too. But it didn’t last. The actress and singer went on to find love with a fellow musician. Actor and singer Austin Butler captivated her immediately. They started dating in 2011, though the two have since split.
