Cancer Ox and Libra Monkey

Billy Crudup (7/8/1968, Cancer Monkey), Naomi Watts (9/28/1968, Libra Monkey) : The actors became a couple around 2017 and appeared together on the red carpet at the SAG Awards in February 2022. Both have children from previous relationships. In an Instagram post after the Emmy awards, Watts said simply: "What a night... What a dress... What a gent... ❤️✨"

Willem Dafoe (7/22/1955, Cancer Sheep), Giada Colagrande (10/16/1975, Libra Rabbit) : The actor and film-maker have been married since 2005. "I met [Colagrande] on the street in Rome in 2004. I knew of her because I'd seen her films and we had some mutual friends. Getting married was very impulsive and romantic. We were having lunch and I said: 'Do you want to get married tomorrow?' I called up City Hall and they said: 'If you get here in the next couple of hours, you can register and then you can get married tomorrow.' So we ran down there."

Megan Rapinoe (7/5/1985, Cancer Ox), Sue Bird (10/16/1980, Libra Monkey) : The basketball and soccer players have been a couple since 2017. Individually and together, they have been credited with "[B]oundary-obliterating levels of achievement on and off the field." Speaking about their lives together after they retire from professional sports, Rapinoe described: "I’m excited. Because there’s like [miming separate boxes with her hands] Megan, and Sue. And then there’s Megan and Sue. And I think that there’s so much to be done in all of those three buckets...I hope [our legacy is that] people see it doesn’t have to be this slog where you’re just a selfless servant. You can have fun, you can be successful. You can do it your own way."

Courtney Love (7/9/1964, Cancer Dragon), Carrie Fisher (10/21/1956, Libra Monkey) : The actor and musician/actor shared a strong friendship after they met at the Oscars ceremony in 1997. In the Foreword to Love's book, Dirty Blonde: The Diaries of Courtney Love, Fisher wrote: "There’s a saying: 'Some of us can’t find heaven without backing away from hell.' Well, it seems to me that that’s been part of Courtney Love’s experience—not that she’s found heaven, but I’m sure she has seen glimpses of the place. How could she not, with all her experience fighting her demons?…After all is said and done—whenever that is—she is a survivor. Unfortunately, the only thing wrong with being a survivor is you have to keep getting in trouble to show off your gift. Getting in trouble and then getting out again, bearing gifts."

Jaden Smith (7/8/1998, Cancer Tiger), Will Smith (9/25/1968, Libra Monkey) : The father and son actors have appeared together on screen several times. Will Smith's memoir, Will, described: "After Earth was an abysmal box office and critical failure, and what was worse was that Jaden took the hit. Fans and the press were absolutely vicious; they said and printed things about Jaden that I refuse to repeat. Jaden had faithfully done everything that I'd instructed him to do, and I had coached him. We never discussed it, but I know he felt betrayed. He felt misled, and he lost his trust in my leadership. At fifteen years old, when Jaden asked about being an emancipated minor, my heart shattered. He ultimately decided against it, but it sucks to feel like you've hurt your kids."

Paul Schrader (7/22/1946, Cancer Dog), Mary Beth Hurt (9/26/1946, Libra Dog) : The director and actor have been married since 1983 and have two children together. They have rarely spoken in public about their relationship, but in 1989, Mary Beth Hurt said simply, "I have everything I want, everything I need. And more. Paul and the kids are the best thing that ever happened to me."

Mike Tyson (6/30/1966, Cancer Horse), Evander Holyfield (10/19/1962, Libra Tiger) : The two former world champion boxers fought for the WBA heavyweight title in 1996, with Tyson infamously biting Holyfield's ear. Years later they reconciled, with both speaking warmly about the other. Tyson said, "We're both at a stage in our lives where we can work together and make really a good thing happen. He's a beautiful person. I've known Evander since I was 15." Holyfield commented, "He appreciates that I forgave him. He's forgiven himself. That's how you make adjustments in life."

Cheryl Cole (6/30/1983, Cancer Pig), Simon Cowell (10/7/1959, Libra Pig) : The two media personalities were both judges on The X Factor in the UK. They had a public falling out when Cole was dropped from the US version of the show after one episode, then reconciled and appeared together again in the UK edition. Often described as "frenemies", Cole described one exchange as follows: "[Cowell] said the same thing to my face about me manipulating him. I said: 'Simon, seriously – you've become so cynical that you think people manipulate you, but I'm not one of those people. Maybe what confuses you is that I don't play with you; you can't buy me.' And he said to me: 'When I say you manipulate, I mean it in the sincerest form of a compliment. Meaning: you're highly intelligent, and I don't even think you know you're doing it.'"

Eddie Murphy (4/3/1961, Aries Ox), Arsenio Hall (2/12/1956, Aquarius Monkey) : The two actors/entertainers and friends famously co-starred in Coming to America (1988) and Coming to America 2 (2021). Hall is godfather to Murphy's eldest daughter, and in 2021 led Murphy's induction into the NAACP Hall of Fame. Asked on Jimmy Kimmel Live! about the times Murphy appeared as a guest on The Arsenio Hall Show (1989-1993), Murphy said: "If you’ve ever seen those old interviews, look at them, we'd just be laughing…I think they actually did, on [TV show] Living Color, they might have even made a joke about how when we're in an interview it's just like us laughing and inside stuff…screaming and falling out." Hall added: "One time I'm interviewing him and we actually forgot the whole segment, and the clip and everything, and brought on his Uncle Ray."

Anthony Hopkins (12/31/1937, Capricorn Ox), Stella Arroyave (3/20/1956, Pisces Monkey) : The actor and antiques dealer have been married since 2003. Hopkins has said: "She met me ten years ago when I was shut down...Not trusting anyone. Certainly not trusting women...Everyday she wakes up happy. She's very positive about everything. I learnt from her just to take life as it comes."

Richard Burton (11/10/1925, Scorpio Ox), Elizabeth Taylor (2/27/1932, Pisces Monkey) : The two Hollywood legends made 11 movies together and shared one of the most well-known and turbulent relationships of all time, including being married and divorced twice. Taylor described in 1973: "When you are in love and lust like that, you just grab it with both hands and ride out the storm."

Sigourney Weaver (10/8/1949, Libra Ox), Jim Simpson (2/21/1956, Pisces Monkey) : The actor and director have been married since 1984 and have a daughter together. Weaver has described: "I’ve always believed what they say in the psychology magazines—that whatever is wrong with your current relationship, you’ll re-experience it in the next one. So why not stick with this great guy who you found and work things out with him?"

Kate Beckinsale (7/26/1973, Leo Ox), Michael Sheen (2/5/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : The two actors were together for seven years from 1995 to 2002 and have a daughter together. They have remained close since their separation. Beckinsale has commented: "I really love him and like him and we make each other roar with laughter."
