The love story between Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart is nearly 20 years old and it doesn’t seem the least bit worn out. Despite some differences, the couple is living proof that it is possible to have a long-term relationship in Hollywood.
we, from awesome.clubwe are always delighted with the love stories that seem eternal and that is why we researched what is the secret behind this dream relationship.
A love that defied all odds
Calista and Harrison met at the Golden Globes in 2002. About 20 minutes into their conversation, she spilled a drink on him. Perhaps this little mishap helped to break the ice between the two, especially since meeting the iconic hero of the Indiana Jones saga is always a little intimidating. But let’s not forget that Calista is also a very respected actress and has even won a Golden Globe.
Although the two had the same profession and knew Hollywood well, their personal lives were very different from each other. While he had been divorced twice and fathered four children, she was a single mother to a newly adopted boy.
He is her “little boy”, despite being 22 years her senior
The 22 years that separate the couple was another “big” difference between them. However, age is just a mere detail when it comes to this pair. In a 2003 interview, the actress stated that the age difference “doesn’t bother her” and admitted that she “always forgets that he’s 22 years older”. Furthermore, Calista also added that the Hollywood heartthrob “looks like a little boy” and that he’s a lot cuter than handsome in the morning.
She made him review his sense of commitment
In recent years, before meeting Calista, the Hollywood heartthrob had been spotted at parties and admitted that he hadn’t been in a serious relationship in a while. In this sense, meeting the actress represented a major change in the actor’s life. He even said he was surprised to find that he was “able to establish a lasting relationship and take on a serious relationship”.
Sharing life means sharing tasks
Actor Harrison Ford pilots planes and, therefore, does not seem very different from the adventurers he plays in the movies. However, he seems to have transferred that passion to his wife, who stated that she feels free when she is flying: “I think I love it because I trust him.” However, while he enjoys spending this time away from home, Harrison acknowledges that he loves staying at home with his wife and always helps her with chores. The Indiana Jones star claims he only goes out for a walk or ride a bike after he’s done doing everything his wife asks of him.
And, in addition to all that, the actor is also a father who is very dedicated to his adopted son, Liam, who is now 20 years old. In 2003, Harrison jokingly claimed that the four children who came before Liam taught him how to change diapers properly: “Changing diapers is up to me. There is no point in wasting this experience.”
Silence is the secret to a lasting relationship.
Harrison is known for being a quiet person and being reserved with aspects of his personal life. However, when asked what the secret behind their solid marriage is, he offered this advice: “Don’t ask. Just nod your head.” Apparently, silence is an actor’s strategy to deal with both professional and personal problems. And it seems that this has been working just fine.
Do you believe that sometimes silence is the best way to resolve an argument? And what do you think is the most important aspect of a solid and lasting marriage? Comment!
