Dating and marriage can be a mess in Hollywood, but there are some celebrity couples who simply get it right — and from everything they've shared publicly with fans, they make us think they'd actually make really good friends (even to boring, normal people like us). Between their senses of humor, cool jobs, adorable kids, and exciting behind-the-scenes stories, there are a lot of stars out there we'd love to go on a double date with.
Of course, we've never actually met or spent time with any of these people, but they definitely give the vibe that they'd be fun to hang out with — with or without all the perks that come with them being famous, of course. They've definitely got their own friends, but in case they're looking for new ones, we're around — and in the end, who among us hasn't wished they were BFFs with Chrissy Teigen and John Legend? Be honest!
Couple friends can be hard to find, and if we could dip into the celeb pool for options, there are definitely a few who come to mind.
Chrissy Teigen & John Legend
With as much fun as Chrissy Teigen and John Legend seem to be, of course this couple is at the top of the list. We'd totally love for our kids to play with the adorable Luna and Miles, and we'd accept every single dinner invitation that Chrissy wanted to throw at us. Not to mention joining them on all those exotic vacations.
Will Smith & Jada Pinkett Smith
As a couple, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have been to hell and back, and they're still standing — that's something we definitely admire, especially after how long they've been together. They'd definitely listen to our problems in an nonjudgmental way, and if Jada wanted to invite us to the table, well, we'd have to say yes.
Prince William & Kate Middleton
Come on, this is the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge we're talking about — who wouldn't want to be friends with them?! We'd love to come over to Kensington Palace for tea before raiding Kate's closet. And yes, we insist on meeting Charlotte, Louis, and George, too.
Meghan Markle & Prince Harry
If we're going to mention one amazing royal couple, we've gotta talk about another. The fact that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex live in California now makes them a bit easier to hang out with than if they were still in the UK, and let's face it: We need the details of all the drama going on behind the scenes in the royal family.
Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds
There's absolutely no doubt that being friends with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds would be a straight-up laugh fest. They don't take themselves too seriously, and those kind of people often make the best friends. Plus, they're friends with Taylor Swift and hear her music before the rest of the public, so maybe they'd share that perk with us?
Gabrielle Union & Dwyane Wade
Leaving the fact that we can't get enough of their 2-year-old daughter Kaavia aside, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade seem like they'd be a total blast. They always stay real, and we really have to respect the way they love their kids. And yes, of course, we do want to go to a basketball game or two, and we know Dwyane still gets the hookup.
Jill Duggar & Derick Dillard
There are definitely things we don't love about Derick Dillard's views (like his treatment of Jazz Jennings in the past), but we'd still be down to hang out with him and Jill Dillard now that they're working through some of the problematic beliefs they've held. They definitely seem like the former Counting On couple who are the most fun, and they have all the tea we need to know about the rest of the Duggar family.
Sophie Turner & Joe Jonas
Here's another couple who keeps us laughing! Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner seem like so much fun from their Instagram posts. And we can't ignore that we'd love to hear Joe's stories about making music with his brothers and Sophie's behind-the-scenes tidbits about Game of Thrones. (And yes, we are hoping to catch a glimpse of their daughter, Willa, in the process).
Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom
Between Katy Perry's music career and Orlando Bloom's acting career, anyone would be hard pressed to find a more interesting couple to sit down to dinner with — especially now that they have a baby girl, Daisy Dove, who we need to know more about. Where are those baby pictures?!
Brittany Matthews & Patrick Mahomes
Is it just us, or are these two super adorable? Leaving the whole football star thing behind, Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Matthews both seem like they'd be awesome friends and so much fun to hang out with — and they could probably get us some bomb seats at sporting events. Who wants to go to the Super Bowl?
Bindi Irwin & Chandler Powell
We'd have to do a little traveling to Australia to be able to hang out with Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell, but something tells us it would be worth the flight. We'd have no issue spending our days at their zoo, helping them care for all the animals that live there. So much fun!
Tim McGraw & Faith Hill
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are country music legends — and they have been together forever. They'd definitely be our down-to-earth, chill couple friends. We'd go over for dinner, play with their dogs, and have a little coffee to end the night. Everyone needs friends like them!
Jeremy Vuolo & Jinger Duggar
If we're heading out to Los Angeles, we definitely want to hang with Jeremy Vuolo and Jinger Duggar. The Counting On couple could introduce us to all the best restaurants, show us around their favorite sites in California, and make sure that all the photos we took were Instagram-worthy.
Gisele Bündchen & Tom Brady
Are they not the cutest?! Considering the fact that we're talking about one of the world's biggest supermodels and one of the world's best living football legends, it practically goes without saying that a lot of people want to be friends with Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady. How could anyone not?
Ashton Kutcher & Mila Kunis
We might as well add Wyatt and Dimitri's parents to the list! Though Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are mostly private about their relationship and family life, from what they have shown us, it's easy to see that they'd make great friends — and they'd make us laugh so much. We need to know all the stories about That '70s Show that they've never shared before!
Arie Luyendyk Jr. & Lauren Luyendyk
We'll admit we had our doubts about this couple after the way Arie Luyendyk Jr.'s season of The Bachelor ended, but over the years, he and Lauren have become one of the sweetest pairings to ever come out of the reality TV franchise. Between Lauren's makeup skills and fashion brand and Arie's real estate expertise, we'd have a lot to talk about.
Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel
These two would definitely be tons of fun! Though Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel certainly faced their ups and downs over their marriage — who hasn't? — we have a feeling they'd actually be pretty low-key during a regular hang out session.
Lauren & Josiah Duggar
There's one big reason we're interested in being friends with this Duggar couple: The fact that they've been MIA for months. What's the deal? Are they finally tired of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's controlling ways? Lauren and Josiah Duggar seem like the most relatable couple — and like they have some serious tea to spill.
Beyoncé & Jay-Z
Anytime the conversation about celebrity couples come up, Beyoncé and Jay-Z should definitely be included. The music, their adorable kids, the potential free Ivy Park swag — there are a lot of reasons we'd love to be friends with the Carters. We're available anytime Queen Bey is! No, seriously. We'd drop everything.
Neil Patrick Harris & David Burtka
The adorable couple that is Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka has been together for almost 20 years, and the stories they probably have to share have got to be amazing (and their kids, Harper and Gideon, are just too cute). Plus, we 100% need to know what NPH thinks about that upcoming How I Met Your Mother spin-off.
