Cancer Horse and Capricorn Pig

George W. Bush (7/6/1946, Cancer Dog), Michelle Obama (1/17/1964, Capricorn Rabbit) : The 43rd US President and First Lady during the presidency of the 44th President have struck up a popular and for many surprising friendship. Obama described in 2018: "[Bush] is my partner in crime at every major thing where all the formers gather. So we’re together all the time, and I love him to death. He’s a wonderful man. He’s a funny man."

Patrick Stewart (7/13/1940, Cancer Dragon), Sunny Ozell (12/23/1978, Capricorn Horse) : The actor and singer/songwriter have been married since 2013. Responding to a question about the age difference between them, Ozell said, "He is so youthful and I guess I’m kind of an old worrywart, so we bridge the gap. It hasn’t come up much. He’s in better shape than I am, physically, which infuriates me." Stewart added, "I cannot fully understand this age thing. It’s not a matter of affectation, I honestly don’t know what happened, how I got here."

Prince William (6/21/1982, Cancer Dog), Kate Middleton (1/9/1982, Capricorn Rooster) : The Prince and Princess of Wales (William is heir to the throne in the UK) first met in 2001 while at university. They have been married since 2011 and have three children together. Speaking about their courtship, William has described: "When I was trying to impress Kate, I was trying to cook these amazing fancy dinners, and all that would happen was, I would burn something, something would overspill, something would catch on fire, and she'd be sitting in the background just trying to help and [then] taking control of the whole situation."

Carl Thomas Dean (7/20/1942, Cancer Horse), Dolly Parton (1/19/1946, Capricorn Rooster) : The country legend and business entrepreneur eloped in 1966 and have been married for over 50 years. Dean has famously avoided the spotlight. To celebrate their 50-year anniversary, the couple renewed their vows, as Parton explained: "It’s been a good 50 years and I don’t know how many more years we'll have left. If I had it to do all over, I'd do it all over again, and we did. I'm dragging him kicking and screaming into the next 50 years."

Mitchell Hope (6/27/1994, Cancer Dog), Dove Cameron (1/15/1996, Capricorn Pig) : The two actors formed a strong friendship when they co-starred in the Descendants series of movies (2015, 2017, and 2019). Cameron described in 2017: "[Mitchell's] a really sensitive human being and so am I. So when two people recognize a commonality, it’s like looking across the room at someone the first day of school and it’s like I see me in you and you see you in me...Mitchell and I were each others’ rocks in the first film. Then in the second film, we were inseparable. He’s like my best friend, my brother, best friend — which is why it’s so funny that we’re significant others in the film. But it creates this comfort-ability as actors where we get to really go there with each other. And I think that’s why there’s so much chemistry on screen, because I tell him everything! He’s like my best girlfriend, except he’s a guy. I spend every moment with him on set...Yeah, I laugh with him maybe more than anyone else."

Mary Stuart Masterson (6/28/1966, Cancer Horse), Jeremy Davidson (12/24/1971, Capricorn Pig) : The two actors have been married since 2006 and have four children together. They avoid attention and have settled in an unidentified small town, where they grow vegetables and keep bees. Masterson has described: "I had a lot of attention very young. It just became part of my norm to be unfindable, ungettable and private. I’ve always been such an individualist, and learning to have roots is something that’s coming to me later in life."

Greg Wise (5/15/1966, Taurus Horse), Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig) : The two actors have been in a relationship since 1995, and married in 2003. They have two children (one adopted). Thompson has described: "I think people in long, happy marriages tell a lot of fibs like ‘Yes, it’s been marvelous!’, whereas I say ‘No, sometimes it’s been awful’. I hope it carries on, but we don’t know. We say ‘Well, this is nice, isn’t it?’ We don’t take anything for granted."

Elissa Durwood Grodin (18 April 1954, Aries Horse), Charles Grodin (4/21/1935, Taurus Pig) : The actor/comedian/author and writer/journalist were married from 1983 until Grodin's death in 2021, and had two children. They met for the first time when Durwood interviewed Grodin in 1982, and at the end he famously proposed. Durwood described later: "[Grodin's] a help in every way. Above all, he's a good man. I have a happy life with him. He's been very helpful with career stuff. Supportive and full of goodness...You know what? I was expecting [him to propose]. I know it sounds weird, but there you go. We were star-crossed. We really hit it off. It was a deep connection...I just said yes. And a year later we were married. It's been fabulous. We've been married for thirty years."

Jerry Seinfeld (4/29/1954, Taurus Horse), Larry David (7/2/1947, Cancer Pig) : The two comedian/actor/writers famously co-created and collaborated for seven seasons on the hugely successful TV show, Seinfeld (1989-1998). According to the book by Jennifer Keishin Armstrong, Seinfeldia (2017), Seinfeld approached David for help while developing the show in 1988. In an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000- ), which consists of largely improvised dialogue, Seinfeld said to David, "How many years did we work together? We would get so tired, we spent so many hours together. We would divulge the most intimate details of our personal lives, right? [David: Right.] Like twins in a womb, right? That's how we did this show. [David: Right.]"

Samuel Beckett (4/13/1906, Aries Horse), Suzanne Dechevaux-Dumesnil (1/7/1900, Capricorn Pig) : The celebrated writer and pianist began an affair in the 1930s and married in 1961. They were died within months of each other in 1989, and are buried together in Paris. Professor of Drama at Trinity College Dublin, Nicholas Johnson, has described: "[Dechevaux-Dumesnil] is very under-represented in the scholarship about Beckett. Her impact on the work is absolutely enormous. Just in practical terms, it was Suzanne who goes to the publishers with his novels when they come back to Paris, so she acts like an agent really at a time when he doesn't seem capable of self-promotion. So I think she was probably quite forceful and functional in ways."

Aaliyah (1/16/1979, Capricorn Horse), Missy Elliott (7/1/1971, Cancer Pig) : The two singers were close friends and collaborators, with Elliott contributing more than half of the songs on Aaliyah's album, One in a Million (1996). Writing after Aaliyah's tragic death in a plane crash in 2001, Elliott described: "[It was like [Aaliyah] was my little sister. We would hang out, go shopping together, or she would come to my house or we’d hang out in the studio. Our relationship went beyond the work we did together. We felt we had created a new sound, but it wasn’t like we just did records and that was it. It was more of a family vibe than just work. We could tell each other anything."

Zoe Saldana (6/19/1978, Gemini Horse), Mila Kunis (8/14/1983, Leo Pig) : The two actors share a strong friendship, and have collaborated in the films, Get Over It (2001), After Sex (2007), and Blood Ties (2013). Speaking in 2018, at the ceremony for Soldana receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Kunis described: "When [Soldana] loves, she is all in. She’s all-in for her family, her friends and all-in for her work. I admire you as a person, a wife, a mother, a sister, a businesswoman and as an actress. While the world knows you for the characters you have played, I have the privilege of knowing the working mom behind the scenes...She is loud. Like, no joke, her superpower is volume. Walk into Zoe’s house and they are screaming, in English, in Spanish, in Italian. It is the loudest love you’ll ever receive in your life. The loudest love I’ve ever heard."
