Mark Wahlberg and his wife Rhea Durham have been one of the few Hollywood couples who have managed to stay strong and built a solid family foundation over the years.

Despite their age gap of 7 years (Durham is 45 and Wahlberg is 52 currently), the couple were madly in love, got married in 2009, and now have four kids together.

Wahlberg especially has been vocal about how his wife has made him into the man he is today. The couple first met way back in 2001 and Wahlberg realized that Durham was the one for him after getting to know the kind of person Durham was. The actor told People,
“We met in New York City, while I was doing a press junket. I asked her if she wanted to come out with me, and she said yes. Then I asked her if she wanted to come to church with me the next morning, and she said yes again.

So that was our first date: St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York. I knew shortly after that she was the one, but I still had to make sure that I was able to be the man I needed to be.”
The couple continue to show their love for each other and their fun banter is always seen in their social media posts. The pair appeared together on-screen in the reality TV series Wahlburgers, which documented the family’s restaurant chain and their personal lives.
