Many consider marrying into a blended family an excellent package deal! You instantly share wonderful children with your significant other and take part in a growing family. Our fave celebrities often show how well-acquainted they are in this household dynamic.
Bright Side took a look-see at some synergistic families headed by Hollywood’s biggest stars and got to know how they keep a harmonious relationship in a blended home.
1. Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk
The Goop founder and TV producer tied the knot in 2018 after falling in love while filming episodes of the hit TV show Glee. Both lovebirds came from marriages that didn’t work out.
However, that didn’t stop them from having a wholesome family with Gwyneth’s and Brad’s children spending a lot of time together, and even their former spouses getting along!
2. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell
These long-time partners have made sure to create a close-knit family out of their bunch! The pair have been going strong since Valentine’s Day of 1983.
Surprisingly, the 2 haven’t tied the knot during their 39-year-long relationship. However, it did not stop Goldie and Kurt from having a wholesome family relationship with their children from previous marriages, Hollywood stars Kate and Oliver Hudson, and son, Wyatt.
3. Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker
Sparks surely flew when the 2 reality stars met in 2006. Even though their lives went separate ways afterward. They created their respective family lives, and then Kourtney and Travis found their way back to each other in 2021.
Now that the couple is all over Instagram sharing their engagement and happily blended family, everyone can’t wait to hear wedding bells sing soon!
4. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore
Bruce and Demi have been masters of co-parenting since their 2000 split. The 2 remained close and did not make a fuss over divorcing each other, as they still share sweet moments with their 3 daughters.
Demi also welcomed Bruce’s current wife, Emma Hemming Willis, who shares 2 daughters with Bruce, into their dynamic family.
5. Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade
Raising 5 children feels like a breeze for Gabrielle and Dwyane. Although the duo shares an only daughter, Kaavia, Gabrielle welcomed her other stepchildren and nephew with open arms when she said “I do” to Dwyane. Now, they conquer every milestone together!
6. Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen
The supermodel and football star were already official when they found out that Tom was having a son with his ex-girlfriend. However, the lousy timing didn’t hinder the lovebirds from pursuing their romance and living their best lives with their 3 children.
7. Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz
There’s no denying that a Grammy award-winning artist and a hitmaker would have instant chemistry when they met again after collaborating on a music project.
Now married, the 2 proved that any circumstance is no match for their love as they tread the life of being in a blended family! Aside from being a mother to their 2 sons, Alicia is also a “bonus mom” to Swizz’s 3 other kids and is friends with his ex-wife.
8. Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig
While being one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, Rachel and Daniel have remained low-key with their relationship and even had a secret wedding in 2011! The 2 turned their on-screen romance into a real one after having broken up with their former partners.
Now, the James Bond actor shares a loving family of 5 since they welcomed another addition to the Craig family, a daughter named Grace.
9. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe
Young love was why the Oscar-winning actress and TV star started their 7-year-long marriage. Reese and Ryan eventually split but continued to co-parent their children, Ava and Deacon, and reunite from time to time while having other children from their recent partners.
10. Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani
When these The Voice coaches said, “I want you,” it was not really for the contestants. Instead, it was to each other! Blake and Gwen started as co-stars on the hit TV show while still married to fellow singers.
When they tied the knot last year, Blake officially became stepdad to Gwen’s 3 sons. He considers this newfound fatherhood “the most important role a man could ever have.”
11. Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso
Luciana worked as a bartender when she met the Golden Globe winner in a Miami nightclub back in 2003. The 2 had an instant connection, and the rest was history!
2 years later, Matt wed the solo mom with her daughter present in the ceremony. Luciana admitted that being a mom to a 4-year-old was not a deal-breaker but rather plus points to Matt. Now, they share their 4 kids, including her firstborn Alexia.
12. Kevin and Eniko Hart
Kevin and Eniko continue to prove that their family is cheaper by the (half) dozen! Even though they have gone through public hardships, the pair still found ways to let their family flourish. The 2 enjoy life with their son and daughter, together with Kevin’s 2 children with his ex-wife.
13. Ashlee Simpson and Evan Ross
Also, coming from a blended and star-studded family, Evan did not mind being a stepdad to Ashlee’s son, Bronx, with rockstar Pete Wentz. The family continued to grow by welcoming a daughter and, recently, a son!
Ashlee also remains close friends with Pete as they co-parent Bronx, with Pete calling it the “easiest part of my life.” With Pete, Bronx is also a big brother to a little brother and sister.
14. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith
Some might be surprised, but the Smith family actually has a fifth member! Though we don’t see him act and perform often, Will’s son with his ex-wife Sheree Zampino, Trey, is a solid part of the fivesome together with his siblings, Jaden and Willow.
Jada and Sheree have been candid about their challenges in a blended family, saying it was not easy, but they eventually learned to love each other.
