Beautiful couples past and present

My Instagram just threw up a photo of Kate Moss and Johnny Depp from the 90s and it reminded just amazing they looked together (I think it reality it was a very different story). I then went down a bit of a rabbit hole and remembered Linda Evangelista and Kyle McLachlan and they were equally as gorgeous.

Anyone else?

Obvs this is lighthearted and just something to while away the last few hours of Friday afternoon.

Ralph Fiennes and Alex Kingston in an early 90s sort of way.

Most of these are just people remembering any white celeb couples they can think of.

foreverblowingbubbless · 16/05/2025 18:56

Liz Taylor and Richard Burton

Tinkerbellflowers · 16/05/2025 18:57

Martin and Shirley Kemp

Patchworx · 16/05/2025 18:58

Jane and Serge

I know they weren't a couple as such but what a wonderful pairing in movies and friends.

Timothy West and Prunella Scales. Not beautiful in a Hollywood gloss way, I'll grant you, but it was just the way they looked together. An elderly couple still so in love. So sad for her when he died.

Michael Hutchence and Helena Christensen

Agreed.

And obviously Burton and Taylor.

The thread mentions Bowie and Iman, Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, Tom Holland and Zendaya, and George Clooney and Amal.

GhostOrchid · 16/05/2025 19:07

And the King and Queen of Bhutan!

tigerlady14 · 16/05/2025 19:08

for classic couples i second Ralph fiennes and alex Kingston as well as lenny kravitz and lisa bonet. contemporary couples: colman domingo and husband raul, both so gorgeous and look amazing together. also halsey and avan jogia, dove cameron and damiano david, and renee rapp and towa bird.

Princess Caroline of Monaco and Stefano Casiraghi. Sadly, he died aged 30 leaving her with 3 young children.

Kevin Bacon and Myra Sedgewick always make me smile - they just look perfect together.

Kyra!

IndianaIndiana · 16/05/2025 19:25

I just googled the king and queen of Bhutan - it can't be the couple that is in all the images?!

My first thought was Brad and Angelina. They looking amazing together in Mr and Mrs Smith.

Also, Pacey and Joey were about as perfect as they get in the late 90s teen era!

I also liked Joey and Rachel as a beautiful couple - I know it was unpopular but I thought they looked amazing and had great chemistry!

Coolasfeck · 16/05/2025 19:26

David Bowie and Iman. Hottest couple. You can just tell that after this picture the sex was next level crazy.

How ridiculous! The people posting on this thread are probably predominantly white women!

If the same question was asked on the Black Mumsnetters section I bet you’d probably have more black couples mentioned!

Stop looking for racism when there is none!

Yatzydog · 16/05/2025 19:39

I third this couple: Michael Hutchence and Helena Christensen

MotherofPearl · 16/05/2025 19:40

JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy

I didn’t say it was racist. I said most of these are mainly white celeb couples. Whereas OP asked for beautiful couples.

JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy

Yes! She was so stylish.

SisterTeatime · 16/05/2025 19:46

I always think Burton and Taylor looked like they both needed a good wash.

Thanks @SinicalMe for reminding me about John Taylor and Amanda de Cadenet. Lovely.

It’s got to be Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder for me though.

Gardenbumblebee · 16/05/2025 19:49

Johnny and Winona. They look otherworldly beautiful here.
