Meryl Streep And Don Gummer – 45 YEARS
Meryl Streep, known for her phenomenal acting performances and record-breaking number of Oscar nominations, is not only hailed as the “best actress of her generation,” but also for winning the heart of sculptor Don Gummer. The couple first met in 1978 and later tied the knot, raising four children together. Two of their daughters, Mary and Grace, followed in their mother’s footsteps and entered the entertainment industry.
In 1985, the family invested in a private estate in Connecticut that included a large art studio to accommodate Gummer’s work. Their support for each other’s passions and careers has been a crucial element in their lasting marriage of 42 years. “I want you to know that everything I value most in life you’ve given me,” Meryl expressed her gratitude towards Don during her acceptance speech for the Best Actress Oscar in 2012 for her role in ‘The Iron Lady.’
