William Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers are probably the most famous of all fictional romantic couples. This is a story of young lovers seeking happiness despite opposition from their families and is well known to audiences around the world. Even today, more than 400 years after it was first presented, the story of Romeo and Juliet symbolizes true burning love.   Jay-Z and Beyonce' met in 2002 while working on an album together. They started dating shortly after that work. The couple has kept extremely tight on their plans for getting married, but on April 4, 2008, according to public records, the event did occur and the two are officially together.   Nick Cannon, the new host of America's Got Talent, married songstress Mariah Carey on April 30 of 2008. The wedding took place at Carey's estate on the island of Windermere in the Bahamas. Although the couple have no children together, they do share a Jack Russell terrier named Cha Cha.   They met when Jada tried out for the role of Will's girlfriend on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" television series. The couple was married on December 31 of 1997. They have two children together. Jaden Christopher Syre was born in 1998, and co-starred with his father in the movie The Pursuit of Happyness. The other child is Willow Camille Reign, born in 2000.

 

 
Adam & Eve   Peter & Lois Griffin   Fred & Wilma Flintstone   Homer & Marge Simpson
     
Perhaps the most famous couple ever, Adam & Eve serve to symbolize the beginning of love and humanity, and the loss of innocence.
Whether or not Eve was made from Adam's rib is another matter.		   From one of the highest rated shows on television, Family Guy, Peter and Lois Griffin are one of the most famous couples today. They share three children together, Meg, Chris, and Stewie. They express the true meaning of love each night by not killing the other despite the wild things they have to deal with.   Fred and Wilma Flintstone live in the prehistoric city of Bedrock and they face the problems of contemporary working-class life everyday. They have one child together, a girl named pebbles. They live next door to their best friends Betty and Barney Rubble who are an almost equally famous couple.   The Simpsons are a typical family who live in a fictional "Middle American" town of Springfield. Homer, the father, works as a safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, a position at odds with his careless, buffoonish personality. He is married to Marge Simpson, a stereotypical American housewife and mother. They have three children: Bart, a ten-year-old troublemaker; Lisa, a precocious eight-year-old activist; and Maggie, a baby who rarely speaks, but communicates by sucking on a pacifier
