Dennis Quaid says marriage with 39-years-younger wife is ‘closest relationship' he's ever had
The 71-year-old actor shared what he loves most about his 32-year-old spouse during an interview Monday with Fox News Digital. 'My life is paradise,' he said. 'Every day is paradise with her. It really is.'
'It's the closest relationship I've ever had with anybody,' the Far from Heaven star added. 'What can I tell you? I don't know why God had waited so long to bring her, for her to come along, but [I'm] really glad he brought her into my life, or I walked into hers.'
Quaid acknowledged that even though his wife is 39 years his junior, he doesn't really pay attention to the age gap.
'I haven't spoken out about the age difference of my wife. Other people have. But…I really don't think about it," he confessed. "She's got so much going on that, you know, I just don't notice it. She's just, she's the light of my life."
'I wasn't looking for it,' Quaid added. 'And she came along, and it's God put us together.'
Quad shared similar sentiments about the age gap in the past. 'There's 30-something years between us, and we just don't even notice it,' he said during an appearance on the Today show in 2020. 'I've never related to someone in my life better than we do.'
He continued: 'We have such a great relationship and you know, love finds a way, wherever it is. You never know when love is coming, who it's gonna be, and you have no control over it. We just couldn't be happier.'
Quaid and Savoie tied the knot in a secret ceremony in June 2020 after a year of dating. The couple was initially meant to get married in a lavish Hawaiian wedding, but due to Covid-19 restrictions at the time, they chose to elope in California.
Speaking to People after the wedding, The Parent Trap star revealed that the ceremony took place on a beach in Santa Barbara with just their pastor as a witness. 'It was beautiful,' Quaid said. 'Just looking into her eyes, she was the most stunning bride.'
Savoie is Quaid's fourth wife. The Substance star was previously married to P.J. Soles from 1978 to 1983 and Meg Ryan from 1991 to 2001. Ryan and Quaid welcomed their only child, Jack, together in 1992.
From 2004 to 2018, Quaid was married to Kimberly Buffington, and they now share 17-year-old twins, Thomas and Zoe.
Last month, the actor gave an update about Zoe, who was working as a camp counselor in Texas during the devastating flash floods. He told Fox News Digital at the time that Zoe's camp is many miles north of Kerrville, Texas, which was hit by the catastrophic overflooding of the Guadalupe River.
'The Hill County of Texas is a magical place, especially for children going to camp there,' the Texas native said. 'It's a cherished memory you carry with you all your life. My daughter was actually a few miles away from [Camp] Mystic, further north. Thankfully, their camp was OK.'

Jessica Biel Shares The Food She Won't Give To Her Kids, And People Aren't Lovin' It
Jessica Biel opened up about the one fast food she won't allow in her house, and we bet her kids aren't lovin' it. 'The Sinner' actor, who shares two sons with husband Justin Timberlake, told Parade in a new interview that McDonald's is totally off limits when she's in charge. 'I'm like, 'Sorry, guys, I'm not doing it.' They don't get McDonald's,' Biel said, before explaining her reasoning. 'I just feel like I don't know what's going on with [the] quality of that food. It's stuff like that that I'm like, 'No, we're not,'' she said. 'Let's go have a great burger and fries at a fancy place. I'd rather pay more for you to have something fancy than something like that.' She adds: 'I guess I'm not crazy, rigid and strict, but that would be something that, if they asked me for, I would just be like, 'Next! Next place. Next down the line!'' While Biel's take is controversial among parents, it's also slightly funny, as Timberlake is famously behind one of McDonald's most famous jingles: 2003's 'I'm lovin' it' campaign. Timberlake reportedly made around $6 million for his part in the jingle, though he would later tell British GQ in 2007 he regretted the deal. Related...

‘Battlefield 6' Will Avoid Something ‘Call Of Duty' Players Hate
There is much talk about the 'Fortnite-ification' of various video games these days, where that no longer just means everyone making a battle royale, but in terms of how microtranscations for a game are conceived of and executed. Fortnite's endless string of superheroes and video game guest stars and even celebrities feels pretty standard at this point. Call of Duty has been doing something similar for years, but is now getting into fairly ridiculous territory with releases like Nicki Minaj, Seth Rogen, Beavis and Butthead and American Dad skins that frankly feel absurd in the formerly grounded world here. Now that Battlefield 6 is on the horizon this fall, DICE has commented about how they're not planning to go down this same path: 'It has to be grounded. That is what BF3 and BF4 was — it was all soldiers, on the ground,' design director Shashank Uchil told dbltap. 'I don't think it needs Nicki Minaj. Let's keep it real, keep it grounded.' If you've seen any of the footage or previews of Battlefield 6, you might imagine how absolutely absurd it might be to see Homer Simpson or Batman running around these explosive modern military arenas. I mean, you can say the same about Call of Duty, and players are saying that, but the dam has sort of burst over there. Here? DICE seems to want to nip that idea in the bud. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder However, the truth is…these skins likely wouldn't exist if they didn't sell. If goofy crossover skins weren't moving cash through Call of Duty, they likely wouldn't keep making them. Even if the consensus is that these skins are ridiculous, there is likely a contingent of quieter players who are in fact actually buying them in bulk. This is also EA we're talking about, so I do wonder that if Battlefield 6 isn't selling enough Battlefield Coins or whatever, they might be pushed closer and closer to more extreme skins. Though we do have some examples of games avoiding this like Helldivers 2, which has consistently (more or less) maintained its visual identity with its cosmetics added over time. Hopefully Battlefield 6 can do the same. As for Battlefield 6 and Black Ops 7 going head-to-head this fall, there is some sense that BF6 may have a real shot at dethroning the king at this point. It almost instantly got 500,000 wishlists on Steam, has an immense amount of social chatter, millions of trailer views, the list goes on and on. But Call of Duty is Call of Duty. It doesn't lose to any game not named Hogwarts Legacy or Grand Theft Auto. It would, however, benefit from more steep competition, which is what Battlefield 6 may give it this year.
