As if the lime light and having to do on screen love scenes with other people isn’t enough stress on their dating lives, these celebrity couples are also in interfaith relationships—it’s just one more thing they have to overcome, but they seem to be doing it well!
Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan
The creator of Facebook may have changed his religion “status” since marrying Chan. Zuckerberg was raised Jewish Atheist but after his marriage to Chan, who is not religious, he calls himself just Atheist.
David Cross and Amber Tamblyn
“Arrested Development” star Cross was raised Jewish and converted to Atheism. Meanwhile, Tamblyn is spiritual but not religious.
David Bowie and Iman
International pop star Bowie is agnostic; meanwhile his superstar wife is Muslim. But, we imagine most men would be willing to overcome any difference to be with Iman.
Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky
The former first daughter is a Methodist—something her parents spoke about in interviews—meanwhile her husband is Jewish.
Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick
Bacon was raised Catholic and his wife Sedgwick Jewish, but the two will be raising their children Jewish. We’re surprised Bacon isn’t terrified of religion after his role on “The Following”!
Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft
The writer of “The Producers” was raised Jewish, meanwhile his wife Anne Bancroft was raised Catholic. The two managed to stay together until Bancroft passed away in 2005. But we imagine having created films like “Spaceballs” and “Dracula: Dead and Loving It,” that Brooks is open to all sorts of realities.
Elizabeth Hurley and Arun Nayar
Hurley is as super British as she was made out to be in the “Austin Powers” movies—she is a member of the Church of England. Meanwhile, her husband Nayar is Hindu.
Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher
“Wedding Crashers” star Fisher was not religious before marrying “Borat” star Cohen, but she converted to Judaism for her husband.
Drew Barrymore and Will Kopelman
Barrymore’s role in the recent film “Blended” represents a bit of her real life—she is in a marriage of “blended” religions. Barrymore calls herself spiritual, meanwhile her husband Kopelman was born and raised Jewish.
Amanda Peet and David Benioff
Peet has a Quaker father and Jewish mother. She took up Quakerism in her adult life but her husband, Benioff, is Jewish.
Casey Affleck and Summer Phoenix
“Good Will Hunting” actor Affleck is Episcopalian and his wife Phoenix was raised in a cult that many Hollywood children were raised in, called the Children of God. As far as we know, the cult has not won over Affleck.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson
Hanks was raised a Catholic and Wilson Greek Orthodox, but Hanks has been the endearing star of enough romantic comedies, we think, to make any relationship work.
Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner
Ivanka Trump was raised Christian and her husband Jewish but Trump converted to Judaism for her husband.
Larry King and Shawn King
Maybe King’s scandals with his interns were just his attempt to, um, get to know people in other religions…Either way, the talk show host was raised Jewish and his wife is a Mormon.
