The love story of the legendary Michael Caine (88) and his 14-year-younger wife Shakira is probably just as impressive as the actor's career itself. The couple has been married for 48 years, and the actor, who has an incredible career behind him, fell in love with the former model at first sight.
Namely, he watched a coffee commercial in 1971 in which he noticed Shakira.
The double Oscar winner then went to a nightclub and met a friend there, whom he told where he was traveling to find her and invited him to go with him. He explained everything to him, and then they realized an incredible coincidence. His friend knew her, and told him she lives just a few blocks away!
The actor often points out how much his wife changed his life. He said without her, he wouldn’t even be alive. He used to drink a lot, and he smoked a few packs of cigarettes a day! Shakira totally changed his habits! He says she gave him the motive to stay sober and healthy.
The actor said he shares everything with her, and that she is his right hand. He added that in his long acting career he was often surrounded by beautiful women, but he never had the urge to cheat on his wife because he has been the most beautiful since he first saw her.
The British actor, who has played more than 100 film roles and won all the important awards, boasted that his marriage is phenomenal, and revealed the secret of his success that made everyone laugh. He said the trick is in having two bathrooms!
He says that his wife and he are equal in everything. He stressed the need to involve his partner in everything and so it is with him and his wife.
The actor, who does not give up work until he is 90, has a daughter Natasha (48) with Shakira. In his first marriage to his late colleague Patricia, Caine had a daughter, Dominique (64).
