Directors Who Got Together With Their Lead Actresses After Calling “Cut!”
You never know what’s going to happen next in Hollywood, especially when it comes to celebrity relationships. With beautiful, talented people at every turn, Tinsletown is a tough place to keep a marriage together. It’s not easy to tame the wandering eye… Here we put together a list of directors who were so impressed with their lead actresses that they ended up getting married to them after the film! Charlie Chaplin and James Cameron are just two of the big names on this list!
Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw
Director Steven Spielberg was married to actress Amy Irving when he was casting a lead actress for Indiana Jones. Spielberg picked actress Kate Capshaw for the part, and the two had instant chemistry.
Spielberg divorced Irving and married Capshaw in 1991. She even converted to Judaism for the marriage, and the couple is still together today. Happily married, they have two children from previous marriages, adopted another two children together and also welcomed three of their own. It must have been fate!
