Celebrities who married their high school sweetheart

Keeping a relationship intact from high school into adulthood is difficult, and even harder under the glare of fame. Still, 19 celebrity couples met as teenagers and went on to long, public lives together — even if not all remain together today. Knicks star Jalen Brunson has been with Ali Marks since high school; their 2015 prom photo remains on his Instagram.

They got engaged in 2022 and married in 2023, and Marks wore her prom dress as a second look at the wedding. The couple welcomed their first child, Jordyn, in 2024. Patrick and Brittany Mahomes were classmates in Tyler, Texas and stayed together through college and pro stardom.

Patrick proposed in 2020 with the caption “#RingSZN,” their daughter Sterling was born in February 2021, and they married in March 2022; their son Patrick “Bronze” was born in November 2022 and a third child, Golden, arrived in January 2025.
