Shepard described in 2010, "[W]e're definitely an incredible match. But, you know, not without fireworks… although at this point, you know, she's the only woman I could live with. Who could live with me! What other woman would put up with me?...Jessica has this absolute honesty. I think it's a direct quality of the midwest, of that background that she's from."

Elaine May (4/21/1932, Taurus Monkey), Mike Nichols (11/6/1931, Scorpio Sheep) : The comedian/writer and director/comedian formed the comedy duo Nichols & May.

Dwayne Johnson (5/2/1972, Taurus Rat), Ryan Reynolds (10/23/1976, Scorpio Dragon) : The two actors have been friends for over 15 years. About working together on the film Red Notice (2021), which suspended filming during the pandemic in 2020, Reynolds described: "We made it about 1 or 2 days past the halfway point line. I'm guessing we might've finished the movie if we didn't spend 90 percent of the time dicking around, laughing. I've known Dwayne for like 15 years. So, we tend to spend time trying to make each other laugh, which is a really irresponsible thing to do with Netflix, their money. I think one of the reasons I’ve been friends with him for a long time is he really laughs at himself, which is one of the things I love about him. So if you kinds of parrot back [his lines] just 27 percent faster with a swear word at the end, he’s gone. He leaves the room and he never comes back."

You know, you just meet people and sometimes you think, ‘I really don’t like that person, I have no reason to not like them, I just don’t like them and I will never change my mind. Then there’s some people, like my GTC [George Timothy Clooney] who you go, ‘OK, I’m gonna know this person until the end of time.’"

Michael Brandon (20/4/1945, Taurus Rooster), Glynis Barber (10/25/1955, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors have been married since 1989 and have one child.

The one thing is that it’s never boring."

Rashida Jones (2/25/1976, Pisces Dragon), Quincy Jones (3/14/1933, Pisces Rooster) : The actor/film-maker made the acclaimed documentary Quincy about her father, the legendary music producer.

I am getting emotional because he literally changed my life. And I thank you."

Melia McEnery (2/1/1976, Aquarius Dragon), Eric Clapton (3/30/1945, Aries Rooster) : The legendary musician and philanthropist have been married for 18 years and have three children together. Clapton has described how before he met McEnery he suffered from addiction and used relationships with women as a form of escapism.

Gwen Stefani (10/03/1969, Libra Rooster), Blake Shelton (06/18/1976, Gemini Dragon) : The two singers married in 2021.

Shortly before their marriage, Stefani described: "I think there was a lot to consider when you have so many people involved. Children, and their hearts, and everybody in my family [and] his family, we all went through a lot together. So I think in a romantic way, when you fall in love so hard and so unexpectedly — and so late in your life — you think 'I want to marry you!' That's the first romantic reaction, like, 'Let's get married.' So we always talked about it, of course, and I think that as the years were going by, it didn't need to happen. There was a lot of healing to do."
