Cancer Sheep 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."

Mikhail Gorbachev (3/2/1931, Pisces Sheep), Ronald Reagan (2/6/1911, Aquarius Pig) : The 40th US President and the eighth and final leader of the Soviet Union are credited with together ending the Cold War. In a series of meetings between 1985-1988, the two leaders agreed to a significant reduction in arms and transformed the relationship between their respective countries. The Reagan Foundation now records: "The unlikely pairing of a devoted anti-Communist advocate of capitalism with a dyed-in-the-wool Marxist resulted not only in the most significant arms reduction treaty in history, but in a permanent change in U.S.-Soviet relations. Neither country, nor the world, would ever be the same again. Somehow, against all odds, 'Ron and Mikhail,' as they eventually came to call each other, had found a way to make the planet safer after all."

Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep), Emma Thompson (4/15/1959, Aries Pig) : The actor and director/producer collaborated multiple times, including the films, The Remains of the Day (1993), Primary Colors (1998), and Wit (2001), and the TV series, Angels in America (2003). After Nichols died in 2014, Thompson described: "Working with [Nichols] was like going to an eclectic, unorthodox, and highly original university. We would all get to wander about in the corridors and high ceilings of his mind—for free, mind you—each making different discoveries according to our tastes and aptitudes. Then, later, we would find that those discoveries applied to the rest of our lives...As for the laughing, there was no end to it. There were periods of hilarity that I am surprised I survived, let alone him. He laughed and cried in equal measure, to excess and always with good reason. He loved with unparalleled generosity and without reservation. His gifts to those of us lucky enough to have known him can never be measured. It was a lifting up. He lifted us all up.""

Maria Shriver (11/6/1955, Scorpio Sheep), Arnold Schwarzenegger (7/30/1947, Leo Pig) : The actor/politician and and journalist/author were married from 1986 to 2021 and have four children. They separated when, after completing his term as Governor of California, Schwarzenegger revealed to his family that 14 years earlier he had fathered a child with their longtime maid. Schwarzenegger has since described: "I can beat myself up as much as I want — it's not gonna change the situation. So the key thing is, how do you move forward? How do you have a great relationship with your kids? You can't go back — if I could, in reality, be Terminator, of course I would go back in time and would say, 'Arnold … no.' You know, it's always easy to be smart in hindsight. That's not the way it works."

Keegan-Michael Key (3/22/1971, Aries Pig), Jordan Peele (2/21/1979, Pisces Sheep) : The comedian/filmmaker and actor/comedian are close friends, who appeared together in the sketch comedy show, Key & Peele (2012-2015). They also collaborated on the films, Keanu (2016), and Wendell & Wild (2022). In a joint interview, Key described about their friendship: "[Peele] makes my heart giggle...There’s an ineffable quality, and sometimes it’s timing and luck that people just come across each other at a particular time in their lives. They come from similar places and they bring beautifully different perspectives." Peele said, "We’re each other’s funniest person...Whenever we get together, whether it’s been a day or a few months, it’s like there we are … We have a competition to make each other laugh and it’s just the same infectious thing that doesn’t really exist with anyone else. We’re just constantly trying to crack each other up."

John Krasinski (10/20/1979, Libra Sheep), Emily Blunt (2/23/1983, Pisces Pig) : The two actors have been married since 2010, and have two children. They co-starred in the film, A Quiet Place (2018), which Krasinski also directed. Blunt described in 2013: "Meeting John really changed my life. When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible. There’s someone behind you on your good days and someone in front of you on your bad days."

Laura Dern (2/10/1967, Aquarius Sheep), Diane Ladd (11/29/1935, Sagittarius Pig) : The two actors are mother and daughter. They have co-starred in multiple films, including Wild at Heart (1990), Rambling Rose (1991), Citizen Ruth (1996), and Inland Empire (2006), as well as the HBO TV series, Enlightened (2011-2013). In 2023, they are set to publish their first co-written book, Honey, Baby, Mine: A Mother and Daughter Talk Life, Death, and Love (and Banana Pudding). Dern described: "When my mother received a terrifying health diagnosis, we started taking walks. Walks that resulted in us having the deepest, most honest and even the funniest conversations of our lives together. This book is the result of not waiting to share it all and has brought us closer than ever."

Keith Richards (12/18/1943, Sagittarius Sheep), Ron Wood (6/1/1947, Gemini Pig) : The two musicians have collaborated as the two guitarists in The Rolling Stones, since Wood joined the band in 1975. In the documentary film, Shine a Light, Wood was asked what was Richards' best point, and he answered: "Well, he's very moral and he's very caring, unlike his image." Richards described about their playing: "I know the truth, which is like, we're both pretty lousy, but together we're better than 10 others."
