The celebrities that have been entertaining us for years with captivating films and enchanting radio hit songs have significant others that are equally as iconic. In this list of famous wives and husbands that once had their hearts shattered by beloved celebs, we reveal some juicy details. While everyone can’t help but enjoy a great love story, we uncover the heartbreak that our favorite personalities have endured since parting ways. However, several of these celeb couples are still together and determined to keep their wedding vows alive.
Michael Jordan & Yvette Prieto
While Michael Jordon is undoubtedly one of the most famous names in the NBA, he is also an established businessman who is worth over 1billion dollars. It seems that he may have learned an important life lesson after losing a total of $168 million in 2006 after divorcing his ex-wife Juanita Vanoy, as he opted for a prenup when marrying his current wife, Yvette Prieto. The couple is happily married and has 4-year-old identical twin daughters, Ysabel and Victoria. Perhaps the prenup was not necessary after all.
John Travolta & Kelly Preston
The 66-year-old John Travolta has become something of a household name for his success as an actor, singer, dancer, and producer. The celeb has starred in several iconic films, which include Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Pulp Fiction. Other than an impressive career, John Travolta married the beautiful actress Kelly Preston and the couple became parents to a daughter and two sons. Tragically, during a family trip to the Bahamas, the couple’s eldest son, Jett, who had Kawasaki disease, passed away from a seizure at just 16 years old. The couple openly stated that attending couple’s therapy has helped their marriage over the years. Sadly, in July 2020, Kelly Preston passed away after a battle with breast cancer, leaving John devastated, but dedicated to making the best out of life for their two children.
