“He was a global heartthrob—they told him not to marry her.” 💔💍 But 36 years later, they’re still going strong. Through fame, depression, and defiance, this couple proved what real love looks like. See their rare photos and story in the article below 👇
These two show what love actually means by their romance that spans 36 years. It was back in 1980 that they first crossed paths as high school students. It took them 9 years before they tied the knot. During their relationship, the spouses welcomed 4 kids. Once the man admitted that marrying Dorothea was the greatest deal he had made.
Despite his status of a global heartthrob as well as the disapproval of his management and record company, the love of these two has remained firmly making them one of the most iconic and harmonious couples of show business. However, their union was fraught with challenges because of the demanding career including the relentless cycle of touring and recording which, eventually, led to deep depression. During this tough and challenging period of time it was Dorothea who stayed by his side being his biggest supporter.
The couple raises their offsprings away from the intense glare of the spotlight maintaining their privacy and avoiding the constant exposure of the father’s celebrity status. In recent years they have been focused on business and philanthropy – establishing two Soul Kitchen restaurants encouraging diners to either donate for their meals or do a voluntary work in the kitchen thus emphasizing the importance of giving back to community. They operate without set prices.
They have been a global example of lasting and enduring love. According to Dorothea, the secret to their long-standing relationship is that they really like each other and want to hang out. Jovi in his turn describes her as the rock of his family, his career and his being.
