There's never a wrong time for love, and these five ladies are proof. Many wedding announcements come from celebrities in their 20s or 30s; sometimes, it's their first marriage, but oftentimes, it's their second or third marriage. More importantly, these announcements rarely come from women in their 60s or older. Elizabeth Taylor was married eight times to seven different men, and even she was never a bride in her 60s. (Taylor's final marriage took place in 1991, just months before her 60th birthday.) All that to say, it's exceedingly rare for famous women to tie the knot well into middle age, but rare doesn't mean impossible.

In this case, it's a very sweet and promising rarity for older women to walk down the aisle, one that gives other people hope. Love can be found at any age and amid any circumstances, and marriage isn't reserved for young adults. From actors and singers to Broadway legends and TV hosts, here are five celebrity women who married in their 60s and beyond.

Kristin Scott Thomas

Kristin Scott Thomas is a British actor and Oscar nominee best known for her work in films like "The English Patient" and "Four Weddings and a Funeral" (one of the best romcoms of its decade), and she has been married twice. Her first marriage was to French fertility doctor Francois Olivennes, and it ended in 2005 after nearly 20 years and two children together. "I don't feel single. You don't when you have children. But I do feel more independent. Single has a boyfriend connotation ... But independence is great. I don't have to check in with anybody. After a long time with someone, you realize you've been thinking for two," Thomas told The Guardian after her divorce.

Nearly two more decades passed, and Thomas got married again. In 2024, when Thomas was in her 60s, she married John Micklethwait, editor-in-chief of Bloomberg News. The two dated for several years before getting married, and they kept the news of their nuptials quiet for quite some time before sharing with the public. "I think people who have just fallen in love have this very obvious happiness about them, don't you?" she said of being married in an interview with The Telegraph. "I think I was perfectly happy before, but not this happy. My husband is not the cure to anything [I've been through], but he is a man with whom I can talk about anything, who is inspiring and clever," she said.

Kim Cattrall

"Sex and the City" star Kim Cattrall never had children, and she has been married more than a few times. Her first marriage, to Larry Davis, was annulled after two years. She tied the knot again in 1982 with architect Andre J. Lyson. The marriage took her to Frankfurt, Germany, and lasted seven years before ending in divorce. Cattrall's third marriage in 1998 was to Mark Levinson, and it lasted about six years before also ending in divorce. In 2025, a 69-year-old Cattrall got married for the fourth time.

Cattrall's fourth marriage was to Russell Thomas, a British sound engineer that Cattrall met in 2016. The wedding took place at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London and only included 12 guests. "It's just so easy. I'm very comfortable around him. He's a firecracker and he's got a wicked sense of humor. And he's easy on the eyes!" Cattrall told People in 2020 of her relationship with Thomas. "I love him. And he was worth waiting for," she added. 

Vanna White

The stunning Vanna White has married twice, with her second trip down the aisle coming much later in life. The "Wheel of Fortune" star's first marriage was to restaurateur George Santo Pietro and lasted from 1990 until 2002. The pair welcomed two children together during their marriage. White has had some other serious relationships in her life, including an engagement to soap actor John Gibson, who died in a plane crash before the two were able to get married. After her marriage to Pietro, the TV host was also engaged to businessman Michael Kaye, but that relationship ended before vows were exchanged.

Then, in 2012, White met John Donaldson, a contractor with whom she shares mutual friends. White was in her 50s when they met, and they stayed in a committed relationship for over a decade before deciding to get married. And the 2026 wedding came as a surprise to many. In a late 2025 interview with E! News, White said, "Maybe people want to see us get married. When you've been with someone for so long, you kind of feel like you're already married. You don't have to have that piece of paper." About a month later, White, who was 68 at the time, shared on Instagram, "Surprise! We got married! John and I have been in love for more than a decade and a little while back, we wanted to make it official in a private ceremony. We're excited to share this new joyful chapter in our lives with all of you!"

Tina Turner

Legendary artist Tina Turner was no stranger to tragedy. She had several devastating moments in her life, many of which she detailed in her heartbreaking memoir, "I, Tina: My Life Story." Much of the devastation she faced came at the hands of her first husband, Ike Turner. Ike and Tina's relationship started as professional, but it soon turned personal and resulted in a 16-year marriage that was filled with turmoil. "He needed to control me, economically and psychologically, so I could never leave him," Tina wrote in her book. Tina and Ike finally divorced, and the music legend was able to come into her career, and her life, on her own terms.

And later on, Tina found love. About seven years after her divorce from Ike, Tina met Erwin Bach, a German music executive. Bach picked up Tina from the airport, as she was set to perform in concert in Germany, and Tina was smitten from the beginning. The two were together for 27 years before officially marrying in 2013. Clearly, neither was in any rush to make things official. "We are married — we just haven't walked down the aisle, and until there's a need to, we probably won't," Tina told People years prior to their marriage. "We don't need a marriage to be together. Some people need that security thing, but I think if you're internally happy with your partner, you don't need symbols," Bach said. When they did make things official, they did so through a civil ceremony in Switzerland. Tina was 73 at the time of her wedding, and she and Bach were married until her death in 2023.

Carol Burnett

The stunning Carol Burnett has been married three times. Her first two marriages took place in the 20th century, then in 2001, after about 20 years of being single, Burnett remarried for the third time. Burnett's third husband is Brian Miller, and the two first met in the '90s. They dated for a few years before tying the knot; Burnett was 68 years old and Miller was 45. Miller is a musician, and he's over 20 years younger than Burnett. But the age gap doesn't seem to bother the couple. "As we get older, the gap between our ages narrows. If you were 40 and married a 20-year-old, I don't think you could communicate like [we do]," Burnett told People.

Burnett and Miller keep their relationship rather private, but the comedian once noted how grateful she is for their marriage. "We have a terrific relationship. And I feel so fortunate at this time of my life to be with him. And all of my friends have just totally embraced him. And he loves all of my buddies, so it works out great," Burnett told PBS in 2007.
