Leighton Meester and Adam Brody are Hollywood's cutest couple, having found each other on set after hailing from two of the biggest TV shows of the '00s.
The pair, who met while filming The Oranges in 2011, are intensely private and rarely speak about their family life.
Down the aisle

"On sets and in life, I've been able to wear a fancy dress and hit a mark and say lines, and I didn't want it to feel like that," she told the publication. "I wanted it to feel intimate and private."
She got just that when she married Adam in an intimate ceremony in California in 2014, and the couple have still not divulged any details about their special day.

The 45-year-old won Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in Nobody Wants This, the smash-hit Netflix show co-starring Kristen Bell that went viral in 2024.
"My darling, darling, darling wife, Leighton - thank you," he said in his speech. "Thank you for sharing this life with me, and this journey with me. Thank you for our family. I love you with all my heart."
Soulmates

When asked what the secret to his loving marriage was, he replied: "Oh, pick someone good. Be lucky and be in love with someone who's great and then just kind of listen to them."
"If you're with someone great, you're on third base," he added. "Not that it doesn't take sacrifice and humility and you have to grow together and you have to be willing to grow, because you're not going to be able to stay 100 per cent right where you are. But if you're with someone wonderful, I think you're on third base."
Parenting 101

"There's been a lot of stuff that I haven't done because I want to be with them," she told Bustle. "I don't like being away from them. I'm sure a lot of people feel this way, but I'm especially not into it."
"Obviously, for the very right thing, I would probably just be like, 'Let's figure it out,'" she continued. "I mean, I'm not going to leave my family for a year. We're not doing that. But apart from that, we have a good system in place, where I can consider jobs carefully. And every other piece of life."
