BlogIt’s Valentine’s Day, filled with roses, romance, and reflection on those we love. In honor of the day of love and optimism, let’s take a look back on some of the celebrities who found love, got engaged, or tied the knot in 2021.
Who knows, maybe some of their happiness will rub off on the rest of us!
Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae Young
Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae Young got married in October in California after a whirlwind romance and eventful wedding planning. The Flip or Flop and Flipping 101 with Tarek El Moussa star and Selling Sunset realtor met through friends and were engaged in 2020.
The couple have done well with their reality star fame. Tarek is worth about $10 million and Heather about $3 million. Heather also has a lucrative Instagram business that increases her salary.
The couple bought a home in Newport Beach, California. And since the couple are reality and real estate stars, they allowed the big reveal to be filmed. They paid a little over $3 million, and invested significant time and money to renovate the home.
The happy couple moved in around the time they got married last fall, and have room for Tarek’s two kids from a previous marriage. A wedding, a home, and a happy family–what a year!
Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton
Blake and Gwen have been all over the news in 2021. They seem to be the “It Couple” of Hollywood romance. The two musical powerhouses met on the television set of The Voice and quickly fell in love.
In 2020, Blake proposed to Gwen on his Oklahoma ranch, where the couple had been spending much of their time during Covid lockdowns. Blake built a new, larger house on the property, when things became serious with Gwen, and her boys.
Ten Points Ranch is also where the couple were married on July 3, 2021. The couple were married in a chapel Blake built special for the occasion, and they celebrated with friends and family in beautiful tents set up for the occasion.
The couple spend much of their time at the ranch, with Gwen’s three growing boys. They own homes and real estate all across the US, which makes sense for a couple with a combined net worth north of $250 million. But you only have to see pictures of this couple to know–it’s love not money that makes them smile!
Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds
Boris Johnson, the unconventional Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, married his third wife, Carrie Symonds, on May 29, 2021. The couple had a baby in December, the second for the couple and the seventh for Boris.
Boris and the family live at 10 Downing Street, the official residence and office of the Prime Minister. The house is about 300 years old and has 100 rooms! The third floor has a special suite for the Prime Minister and their family, but the rest of the building is the official working space for the country’s leader.
Boris also has a townhouse in Camberwell, in London. They started renting out the $1.6 million residence for about $3,000 per month, as they find the official residence at 10 Downing Street perfect for their family.
Anna Faris and Michael Barrett
Anna Faris has been making people laugh for a long time now, and was married to good looking funny guy Chris Pratt, but the two divorced in 2018. She met cinematographer Michael Barrett around the same time, and have been an item ever since.
After four years of dating, the two married in a private ceremony in 2021, which the actress casually mentioned on her podcast after the event. The couple were committed long before they tied the knot, having bought a wonderful, eco-friendly house in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles.
The LEED-certified house has solar panels, advanced water filtration, and a built-in Tesla charger. It’s 4,200 square feet of gorgeous, modern, sleek design perfect for the private, sweet and funny actress and her new husband! The house set the couple back about $5 million, which is NBD because Anna is worth about $30 million.
Aubrey Plaza and Jeff Baena
Aubrey Plaza rose to fame alongside Anna Faris on Parks and Recreation and has since starred in both film and television shows. She married longtime partner Jeff Baena, a Hollywood director, in 2021 after dating for more than 10 years. Just like other aspects of their relationship, their wedding was private, and only announced a few months after they were married.
The couple are low-key and private, and have lived in the same LA area home for nearly a decade. The home in Los Feliz is a great place for them and their dogs to enjoy the gorgeous views of LA and perfect year-round weather of southern California. After a decade, it’s clear the couple just get each other and are perfect for each other!
These couples give us inspiration that love is always just around the corner. First love, second chances, long-time love or quick and heavy romance, it’s all out there and you never know when Cupid is going to strike! Happy Valentine’s Day!
