Celebrities Who Found Love Later in Life and Proved That You’re Never Too Old to Meet Your Soulmate

A love story in his 80s made Dick Van Dyke’s already joyful image even sweeter. The beloved star of Mary Poppins, The Dick Van Dyke Show, and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang met Arlene Silver when he was about 80. He had been married before and later had a longtime partner, Michelle Triola.

Arlene met him while working as a makeup artist at the SAG Awards, and their friendship eventually grew into romance. They married in 2012, when Dick was 86. Today, they are still married, often sharing music, dancing, and affection that make their age-gap love story feel surprisingly youthful.
