Marriages are built on the hope of forever. But life, in all its unpredictability, doesn’t always honour that dream. Sometimes relationships end, not because love failed, but because people outgrew versions of themselves they could no longer return to. And while divorce can feel like a shattering, it is rarely the end of one’s story. More often, it becomes a courageous reset and a turning of the page toward a wiser kind of love.
Thankfully, we all often come across countless stories that remind us the heart is far more resilient than we give it credit for. People who once believed their great love was behind them have gone on to find something steadier, kinder and more aligned with who they’ve become. These journeys show us that love rarely moves in a linear arc; it bends, pauses and sometimes circles back in the most unexpected ways. In recent years, several celebrities, from Samantha Ruth Prabhu to Saif Ali Khan, have shown us that the heart has room for renewal.
Bollywood Stars Who Got Married Twice
Samantha Ruth Prabhu
On December 1, 2025, Samantha Ruth Prabhu stepped into a new chapter with Raj Nidimoru. The south star remarried in an intimate, spiritually rooted ceremony at the Ling Bhairavi Temple in Coimbatore, choosing serenity over spectacle. Surrounded by a small circle of loved ones and dressed in a red Banarasi sari, she embraced a second chance at love with the filmmaker. Her earlier divorce with actor Chay Akkineni had been painfully public, making this union a hope-filled new beginning.
Chay Akkineni
Samantha’s ex-husband Chay Akkineni aka Naga Chaitanya, too, found his a restart in 2024. He married Sobhita Dhulipala in a family-blessed ceremony at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad, where she arrived in a resplendent gold Kanjeevaram silk sari layered with maximal temple jewellery. Their love story, as Sobhita once shared, began in the most unassuming way with a simple online interaction that slowly grew into a bond defined by ease, respect and emotional clarity.
Saif Ali Khan
Saif Ali Khan was married to Amrita Singh for 13 years, having wed in 1991 before their relationship came to an end in 2004. Their separation was widely discussed, given the public scrutiny as both were prominent actors. Years later, Saif found love again with Kareena Kapoor, whom he married in 2012. The two have since built a happy family together and are now parents to two sons, Taimur and Jeh, marking a new, fulfilling chapter in his personal life.
Farhan Akhtar
Farhan Akhtar was married to hairstylist Adhuna Bhabani from 2000 until their separation announced in 2016. The couple’s divorce was finalised in 2017 after 16 years of marriage. After dating for several years, Farhan tied the knot with Shibani Dandekar on February 19, 2022 in an intimate ceremony at his family’s farmhouse in Khandala. Their connection, which began on a television set, grew steadily over the years, and Shibani has often spoken about how marriage counselling has brought maturity, clarity and deeper understanding into their relationship.
Aditi Rao Hydari
Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth, both having experienced the end of previous marriages, found their way to each other and recently exchanged vows in an ethereal, intimate ceremony. The couple tied the knot on September 16, 2024 at the historic 400-year-old Sri Ranganayaka Swamy Temple in Wanaparthy, Telangana, a shrine that holds deep meaning for Aditi’s family. Their temple wedding, with traditional South Indian attire and minimalism, felt like a new chapter rooted in history, heritage and heartfelt renewal.
Hollywood Stars Who Got Married Twice
Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds first married Scarlett Johansson in 2008, but they separated just two years later in 2010. He found lasting love with Blake Lively. The two tied the knot in 2012 and now share two daughters. Today, Blake and Ryan are celebrated for their unmistakable chemistry; wherever they go, they seem unable to keep their hands off each other.
Ashton Kutcher
Ashton Kutcher was married to Demi Moore from 2005 until their separation in 2013, a relationship that was often in the spotlight. He later reconnected with his longtime friend and former That ’70s Show co-star Mila Kunis, and the two married in 2015. Today, they share two children and are known for their effortless playfulness as a couple a dynamic filled with teasing humour and easy camaraderie.
Chris Pratt
Chris Pratt married actress Anna Faris in 2009, and the two welcomed a son in 2012 before ending their eight-year marriage in 2017. A few years later, he found a second chance at love with Katherine Schwarzenegger (Arnold Schwarzenegger’s daughter). The couple married in 2019 in an intimate California ceremony, marking a fresh chapter for Chris filled with family, faith and a renewed sense of grounding.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth Paltrow married Chris Martin, frontman of Coldplay, in 2003. Together, they welcomed two children. Their reported 2014 split was described publicly as a “conscious uncoupling,” yet the two remain warm co-parents and close friends to this day. Not long after, she met Brad Falchuk on the set of Glee in 2010, began dating in 2014, and married in a serene, star-studded ceremony in 2018.
George Clooney
George Clooney was first married to actress Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993. After their split, he famously embraced and was widely labelled Hollywood’s “eternal bachelor”. That perception shifted dramatically when he met Amal Alamuddin, the brilliant human-rights lawyer who upended every notion he had about love. They married in a stunning Venetian ceremony in 2014 and have since become a globally admired couple, celebrated for their mutual respect and unmistakable public adoration.
