Mark Consuelos met Kelly Ripa, actor and co-star, and host of ‘Live! With Kelly’ on the set of All My Children. After falling in love almost immediately, the two eloped the following year in May 1996 and played lovers on screen for twelve years.
The couple had three children together thereafter. Although the two are working parents and can often be found on different coasts, they have remained a strong unit who’s very much in love.
Jensen Ackles
Jensen Ackles is known for playing the role of cocky, cute, and deadly Dean Winchester for 15 years on the TV show Supernatural. His fans might be surprised to hear it, but Ackles actually had other acting jobs before he started doing Supernatural.
From 1998 to 2000, Ackles played the role of Eric Brady in the soap opera Days of Our Lives. Supernatural has even included a little nod to Ackles's soap days, sending its characters into a parallel universe in which they meet a soap opera actor named Jensen Ackles.
Bryan Cranston
In the first few decades of his career, most people knew Bryan Cranston as either Dr. Tim Whatley from NBC’s popular sitcom Seinfeld, or as Hal from the Fox sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle". Few people know of his portrayal of Dean Stella in the soap opera One Life to Live. He was considered your average nice, goofy, and funny older male actor, but everything changed when he took the role of Walter White on AMC’s iconic "Breaking Bad", which is known as one of the best TV shows of all time.
"Breaking Bad" revolves around Walter White, an aging and depressed chemistry teacher, and his new partner, Jesse Pinkman, a high-school dropout. The two decide to work together and open a meth business after Walter discovers he has terminal cancer and that his family isn’t financially secure. Bryan Cranston’s performance in the show is considered among the best on-screen acting of all time.
Gary Oldman
Gary Oldman is one of Hollywood's biggest underdogs. The actor has been a consistent 'tour de force' throughout the years when it comes to acting, but it took him a long time to get acknowledgment. Many blame his lack of accreditation on his quiet nature, as well as the way he props up other actors with his supportive acting rather than trying to take over the scene. His acting career dates back to the 80s, which included a short appearance in the soap opera Knots Landing.
Oldman finally got his first Oscar after his brilliant performance as Winston Churchill in The Darkest Hour. His most popular role to date was Sirius Black in the Harry Potter series. If you love Gary Oldman and want to check out some of his best work, we recommend that you watch the actor completely transform his appearance and personality in The Darkest Hour, where he plays the devil himself in Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Also, don't miss his legendary performance as Lee Harvey Oswald, former President JFK’s assassin, in the biopic film about John F. Kennedy, titled JFK.
Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt has one of the world’s most recognized faces. We first recognized it, and the rest of him, in Thelma and Louise as a hitchhiking charmer who Geena Davis’ “Thelma” falls for. But a few years before that, young Pitt played Chris, the basketball player from Another World.
Since his Thelma and Louise days, Pitt has portrayed many unforgettable characters in films such as Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Ocean's Eleven, Interview With the Vampire, Fight Club, and more. There are simply too many to choose from, but we will never forget where he started.
