May 14, 1996
Antonio Bandaras & Melanie Griffith
Fourteen years ago today, Zorro married the Working Girl. That’s right. Actors, Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith tied the knot on May 14, 1996, not long after meeting on the set of the comedy Two Much.
This dynamic couple has a lot to be proud of in our book. Besides raising three children, they have received critical acclaim as actors and for their extensive charity work.
What makes this couple so interesting might just be rooted in their differences.
She grew up in Hollywood. He grew up in a town in Spain. Her parents were famous. His mother was a schoolteacher; his father, a police officer. She was given freedom growing up. He was given discipline. She began her career as a baby in a commercial. He didn’t pursue acting until he his dream of being a professional soccer was crushed due to a broken foot. .
Regardless if it’s the similarities or differences that make this couple tick, it works. Way to go Antonio and Melanie!
