9 Famous Couples Who Don’t Care About Their Age Difference

According to American scientists, the ideal age difference between spouses should be 1 year, because in this case the risk of divorce is very low, around 3%. If the difference is more than 5 years, then this probability is 18%, and if it is more than 20 years, then this indicator increases to 95%. However, this axiom can be refuted by celebrities who have been married for a long time to much older or younger partners.
