Viola Davis and Julius Tennon – 18 years

Before award-winning actress Viola Davis met Julius Tennon, she admitted she’d given up hope on meeting the perfect person to spend her life with. She even prayed to God, hoping he would send her a soulmate–and her prayers were answered when she met Julius less than a month later.

Julius Tennon, a former football player and actor, overheard Viola saying that she didn’t know anybody in Los Angeles. He decided to introduce himself, and sparks flew immediately! In 2003, the pair got married. Eight years later in 2011, they adopted a daughter named Genesis.
