When it comes to celebrity couples, there are certain patterns as we see who ends up with who. Some stars opt to marry regular people, while many actors choose to marry fellow actors — after all, who else will understand their unusual lifestyle but someone who has lived it themselves? And then, there are the celebrities who pair up with musicians, whether they're singers, songwriters, or members of legendary bands and groups that all of us had major crushes on growing up (looking at you, Jessica Biel).
The music industry isn't all that different from the rest of the entertainment industry, after all — famous is famous, and it's likely that these married couples are still able to understand each other in a way that no one else can — with the added bonus that these stars also might get a few love songs written about them.
Read on for 15 celebrities who married musicians, despite the fact that they and their spouse now work in two totally different industries. Though not all celeb couples stay together, all of these have — at least, so far.
Chrissy Teigen & John Legend
Though Chrissy Teigen is a talented model and chef, she doesn't appear to have a musical bone in her body, but that's where her husband comes in. She and Grammy winning artist John Legend have been married since 2013 and have two children together. John even wrote his hit song, "All of Me," about her.
Sophie Turner & Joe Jonas
Actress Sophie Turner's main claim to fame is Game of Thrones, though she's also known for being a part of the X-Men universe. She also made Jonas Brothers fans all over the world totally jealous when she married Joe Jonas. They're still together today and parents to a baby girl, Willa.
Priyanka Chopra & Nick Jonas
Moving on to another lady who was lucky enough to marry a Jonas brother: actress and activist Priyanka Chopra. In 2018, Nick and Priyanka tied the knot in multiple elaborate wedding ceremonies, and she's been spotted in the crowd at many of his concerts since then.
Jessica Biel & Justin Timberlake
Let's not kid ourselves. Many of us grew up with 'NSYNC posters on our walls, wishing we could marry Justin Timberlake — and Jessica Biel ended up being the lucky lady who actually got to live that dream! Best known for starring in 7th Heaven and The Sinner, Jessica is living happily ever after with Justin and their sons, Silas and Phineas.
Hilary Duff & Matthew Koma
Though Hilary Duff has released a couple of albums in her younger years, we'd definitely consider her more of an actress than anything else, especially with hit shows like Lizzie McGuire and Younger under her belt. Today, she's married to musician Matthew Koma, a singer, songwriter, and producer who was once a member of Eve 6. Along with Luca, Hilary's son from her previous marriage, she and Matthew have two daughters, Banks and Mae.
Daryl Sabara & Meghan Trainor
Best known for his role in the Spy Kids series, Daryl Sabara is now married to pop star Meghan Trainor, and the couple is known for documenting their relationship on Instagram. In February 2021, they became parents for the first time to a baby boy, Riley, who seems to have taken over their world.
Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban
At this point, Nicole Kidman is basically a Hollywood legend, and her husband isn't exactly a nobody, either. She's been married to country star Keith Urban since 2006, and they have two children together, daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.
Katherine Heigl & Josh Kelley
Add another actress who married a country star to the list. Katherine Heigl, who's best known for playing Izzy Stevens on Grey's Anatomy (along with her epic rom-com career), is married to country musician Josh Kelley, with whom she has three kids, Naleigh, Adalaide, and Joshua.
David & Victoria Beckham
These two make one serious power couple. Not only is David Beckham one of the most famous and accomplished soccer players in the world, but he also happens to be married to a former Spice Girl (and current fashion designer), Victoria Beckham. Still, we'll always think of her as Posh Spice first.
Nicole Richie & Joel Madden
Good Charlotte might not be as popular as it once was, but that doesn't make Joel Madden any less of a rocker — and let's not forget that it was Nicole Richie who married him. They walked down the aisle in 2010, and they have two kids, Harlow and Sparrow.
Cameron Diaz & Benji Madden
Speaking of Good Charlotte, we definitely can't forget Nicole's sister-in-law. Cameron Diaz has taken a break from acting these days to raise her daughter, Raddix, but her movie career will never be forgotten — and she and Joel's brother, Benji Madden, have been married since 2015.
Kimberly Williams-Paisley & Brad Paisley
Kimberly Williams-Paisley's major claim to fame was the starring role in Father of the Bride, and when it was her turn to walk down the aisle in real life, the person waiting at the end was country star Brad Paisley. They tied the knot in 2003, and they have two children, William and Jasper.
Hailey Baldwin & Justin Bieber
Hailey Baldwin is best known for her modeling career, but she happened to marry a major pop star, Justin Bieber. They got married in 2018, though Justin's career in music was established long before that — and since then, it's only continued to grow.
Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne
Sharon Osbourne isn't the musical one in her family — that would be her longtime husband, Ozzy Osbourne, who was the frontman of Black Sabbath. They married in 1982 and stuck together through a lot of very public ups and downs, including on their reality show, The Osbournes.
Carey Mulligan & Marcus Mumford
Known for starring in movies like Promising Young Woman and The Great Gatsby, Carey Mulligan ended up marrying someone who is into music, not acting like she is. Her husband is Marcus Mumford of Mumford & Sons, and they have been married since 2012.
