Tom plays family patriarch Frank Reagan and has been a Hollywood heartthrob for decades. However, in real life, Tom has been happily married to actress Jillie Mack for over 30 years.
The couple first met when Tom attended a performance of the musical Cats, in which Jillie was starring, and they quickly hit it off. The two were married in a private ceremony in 1987, and they share a daughter, Hannah, who has built a career as an equestrian.
Despite their three-decade-long marriage, Tom credits Jillie’s independence for helping create a long-lasting relationship.
“I don’t think the relationship would’ve survived with somebody who was basically eating, sleeping, and working. And Jillie’s a very active person, as you can see.” Tom told People.
“I remember the first time she stayed in Hawaii. I mean, she’d visit the set maybe late in the day, but only after she made my friend, Dave Muntz, take her to the roller skating rink so she could practice roller skating because she was going to audition to Starlight Express.”

Donnie, who plays the intense and dedicated Detective Danny Reagan, is married to actress, model, and TV personality Jenny McCarthy.
The two began dating in 2013 after meeting on The Jenny McCarthy Show, where Donnie was a guest. Their chemistry was undeniable, and they got married in 2014 in a romantic ceremony just outside Chicago.
They built a life in Chicago with their blended family that consists of her son, Evan, who she shares with her ex-husband, John Asher, and Mark’s sons, Xavier Alexander and Elijah Hendrix, who he shares with his ex-wife, Kimberly Fey.
The couple renew their vows every year. “We’ve had 10 vow renewals,” she confessed during an appearance on Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa. “Our pastor reminisces about the year and gives us a thing to think about as the year goes on. There is something nice about it.”
