Ernest Borgnine tribute, Sarah Jessica Parker & Sarah Michelle Gellar's Marriages

2012-07-11 3

Today we continue our look at some of Hollywood's ever-lasting love stories, and farewell a classic Hollywood star.

Sarah Jessica Parker and husband Matthew Broderick have been married 15 years. They have three children together, a son, aged 9, and twin three year-old girls.

Sarah was quoted as saying, "We've been together for 20 years and you have good days, you have decent days, and you have bad days. That's a marriage. That's a relationship."

Sarah has often been photographed wearing beautiful designer wedding gowns for fashion shoots, but for her own wedding she wore a simple, ruffled black dress. Sarah said she wore the black dress to fool the press, but has said if she and Broderick were to renew their vows she would wear a, quote, "beautiful, proper wedding dress, like I should have worn that day."

Invited guests were kept in the dark about the nuptials, as they thought they were attending a party. Sarah gave them all a piece of wedding cake with instructions to "put this under your pillow and dream of your true love."

And now for our second couple. What would a Hollywood marriage list be without a Prince?

Sarah Michelle Gellar met her Freddie Prinze in 1997, during filming of the teen horror film, "I Know What You Did Last Summer." They also played each others love interest in the two Scooby Doo movies. They have been married ten years this September, and like to keep their relationship private.

Their daughter Charlotte Grace, was born in 2009, and one of them stays home to look after her when the other is out working. Sarah is now pregnant with their second child. So stay at home Mr Mom will have a lot more nappy changing to contend with soon.

Finally, we would like to pay tribute to a Hollywood great, Ernest Borgnine, who died on Sunday aged 95. Borgnine won the Best Actor Oscar in 1955, for his portrayal of a lovelorn butcher in "Marty". Many will remember him from his role in the 1960's popular TV sitcom, "McHale's Navy."

Although he had four previous marriages, his marriage to Tova in 1973, lasted for 39 years. Only death separated them yesterday. Our best wishes go out to to Tova and their family.
