Gemini Monkey and Gemini Monkey

George H. W. Bush (6/12/1924, Gemini Rat), Barbara Bush (6/8/1925, Gemini Ox) : The 41st US President and First Lady were married from 1945 until Barbara Bush's death in 2018, and had six children. George H.W. Bush died seven months after his wife. In a famous letter written on the day their engagement was announced in 1943, shortly before George Bush went to war, he wrote: "I love you, precious, with all my heart and to know that you love me means my life. How often I have thought about the immeasurable joy that will be ours someday. Goodnite, my beautiful. Every time I say beautiful, you about kill me, but you'll have to accept it." In 1990, Barbara Bush described: "One of the reasons I made the most important decision of my life, to marry George Bush, is because he made me laugh. It's true, sometimes we've laughed through our tears, but that shared laughter has been one of our strongest bonds."

Peter Dinklage (6/11/1969, Gemini Rooster), Erica Schmidt (6/8/1975, Gemini Rabbit) : The actor, who initially found fame as Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones (2011-2019), and writer/actor have been married since 2005. They have two children. They collaborated on the film, Cyrano (2021), a musical romantic drama which starred Dinklage in the lead role, and was written by Schmidt. Dinklage described in 2015, "[Schmidt is] very inspiring. She’s definitely the artist of the family. I am just the TV actor who pays the bills." Schmidt said in 2012, "What’s frustrating about it is that Pete is an incredibly handsome, charming, funny guy, but when he does a magazine or something it’s like, ‘Isn’t it amazing he’s four foot five inches tall and he’s sexy?’ You know, that’s just who Pete is. And the rest of the world has to catch up."

Tom Daley (5/21/1994, Gemini Dog), Dustin Lance Black (6/10/1974, Gemini Tiger) : The diver/media personality and screenwriter/activist began a relationship in 2013, and married in 2017. They have two children. Daley described in 2018: "It was a real love-at-first-sight thing. But then I had to come back to England so we were just talking on the phone or WhatsApp or whatever. Then [Black] came over eight weeks later. The first night, I took him to meet my friends and said: ‘This is my boyfriend.’ The next night we went on our first date. The next night he asked me to be his boyfriend. The night after that, after a couple of lychee martinis, he told me he loved me. He extended his trip, we were already talking about babies and weddings. So that was in the first week. It was weird. But now it’s five years later …"

Mike Myers (5/25/1963, Gemini Rabbit), Dana Carvey (6/2/1955, Gemini Sheep) : The two comedian/actor/screenwriters worked together on Saturday Night Live, and became household names after they appeared as the eponymous central characters in the films, Wayne's World (1992), and Wayne's World 2 (1993). After Carvey expressed resentment about a lack of credit for the character Dr. Evil in Myers' Austin Powers film series, in recent years the two have become close again. Carvey explained in 2022: " We’ve become very, very close friends...We have too much history, an unbelievable amount of stuff in common. … We had so much shared history together, riding the rocket of Wayne’s World....We got closer during that whole process [of making a Super Bowl commercial in 2021] and started talking more. It’s very nice to have such a long friendship with someone...I came to know him in a much better way, as we’ve been really really talking these last couple years."

Sondra Locke (5/28/1944, Gemini Monkey), Clint Eastwood (5/31/1930, Gemini Horse) : The two actors were romantically involved from around 1975 to 1989. Their partnership included six film collaborations, including, The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Every Which Way But Loose (1978), and Sudden Impact (1983). Unfortunately, their relationship later descended into acrimony, including two lawsuits brought by Locke. Locke was quoted in 1997: "People can say, ‘He made her famous; he gave her movies.’ He didn’t give me movies—I did a job. He didn’t make me famous. It was never my fame—it was his fame. I was Clint’s girl. I only stood to lose professionally."

Gladys Knight (5/28/1944, Gemini Monkey), Patti LaBelle (5/24/1944, Gemini Monkey) : The two singers have been friends for over 60 years. They collaborated (with Dionne Warwick) on the successful song, "Superman" (1991), and joined up for a memorable Verzuz match-up in 2020, with LaBelle saying, "We are so happy to be together. We’ve been together for many, many, many years." Asked about the secret to their relationship in a joint interview, LaBelle said: "[Honesty, keeping each other grounded,] [a]nd not being afraid to go behind [Knight] on the show, or her going behind me. You can't play or hate a good friend, and that's what she is to me." Knight added, "We actually grew up together. This is one of the best feelings about these kind of things that I've had. ... [that's] what love is all about."

Damon Albarn (3/23/1968, Aries Monkey), Jamie Hewlett (4/3/1968, Aries Monkey) : Musician Albarn and artist Hewlett were housemates when they formed the hugely successful, influential, and conceptually revolutionary fictional band, Gorillaz. Their relationship has included some serious disputes, and at one time they did not speak for three years. Hewlett described in 2017: "[Albarn and I] fight at everything. We’d fight over a worm if we found it at the same time. It’s hilarious, but it’s stupid. We’re in a restaurant, we fight. In a taxi, we fight. In front of people, we fight. It’s just one-upmanship. School for Scoundrels. He’s an intense person to be friends with, I mean. A lot is required."

Debbie Reynolds (4/1/1932, Aries Monkey), Elizabeth Taylor (2/27/1932, Pisces Monkey) : The two actors from Hollywood's Golden Age shared a noteworthy and lasting friendship. Close during the 1950s, they became estranged after Taylor scandalously began an affair and subsequently married Reynolds' husband, Eddie Fisher. Yet they reconciled a few years later, when they found themselves on the same ocean liner. Reynolds described, "I sent a note to [Taylor's] room, and she sent a note back to mine saying that we should have dinner and get this over with and have a good time. She’d moved along in her life, and so had I." They later co-starred in the film, These Old Broads (2021) (written by Reynolds' daughter, Carrie Fisher, with Elaine Pope). Their friendship lasted until Taylor died in 2011, bequeathing Reynolds a generous sapphire jewelry set. Reynolds described, "People always assume you’re going to carry a grudge, but I don’t do that. [Taylor and I] passed through that with time."

Rita Wilson (10/26/1956, Scorpio Monkey), Tom Hanks (7/9/1956, Cancer Monkey) : The two celebrated actors have been married since 1988. They have four children, including two from previous relationships. Speaking in 2019, Wilson said, "It’s like anything. We got married, we committed to each other, we love each other and we work hard at our relationship. Not only do we love each other, we really like each other, and we like being together, and we support each other and we keep the communication channels open. That’s always important."

21 Savage (10/22/1992, Libra Monkey), Young Nudy (12/17/1992, Sagittarius Monkey) : The two rappers are cousins who have collaborated multiple times, including on the tracks, "Air it Out" (2015), "EA" (2017), "4L" (2013), "Since When" (2018), "Mister" (2019), "Snitches & Rats" (2020), and "Peaches & Eggplants" (2023). Young Nudy described in 2018, "After I did 'Air it Out' with Savage people just started f— with me. But I built my own little lane in all this s—, you feel me? Most rappers like they’ll be up under a rapper instead of handling their business. They’re just sitting there patiently waiting, waiting for another motherf— to do something for them. That’s not me, I got all my s— on my own. My cousin, just on the music side, I don’t ask him for anything. I just straight went out there and did my motherf— thing. That’s all you got to do. If you want it, you got to do it. I had my few little f—-ups and s— but I got it right...We not Batman and Robin. We’re Batman and Superman."

Demi Lovato (8/20/1992, Leo Monkey), Miley Cyrus (11/23/1992, Sagittarius Monkey) : The two singer/songwriter/actors share a longstanding close—and admittedly fractious at times—friendship. In 2012, Lovato described, "No matter how many times we fight, we will always be in each others' lives. Miley and I are very strong-headed, so when we fight, it's brutal and we're like, 'We're never going to be friends again!' Then two days later, we're like, 'I love you and I miss you!'" Eight years later, reconnecting over Instagram Live in the early days of the pandemic, Cyrus told Lovato, "Life is moving so fast that it’s usually hard to slow ourselves down and appreciate people in our lives, and you’ve been that person for me for so many years and we’ve been friends for so long. We can not talk forever and then some bulls— will go down, and I’ll just know you’re the person I want to reach out to. In dark times, it’s really important to reach towards those who are illuminated. I just think that you’re such a light — even if it took this crisis to get us connected again."
