Dennis Quaid, 71, shares rare insight into marriage to Laura Savoie, 32: ‘My life is paradise'
Dennis Quaid has shared a rare insight into his marriage with Laura Savoie, who is 39 years his junior. The Parent Trap actor opened up about his relationship in a new interview with Fox News Digital this week, telling the outlet they are still very much in the honeymoon phase, five years after wedding. 'My life is paradise,' the 71-year-old said. 'Every day is paradise with her. It really is.' 'It's the closest relationship I've ever had with anybody. Every day is paradise. 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 has been married three times before, exchanging vows in the past with actresses P.J. Soles and Meg Ryan, who he was married to from 1991 to 2001 during which they welcomed a son, actor Jack Quaid, now 33. He was also married to real estate broker Kimberly Buffington from 2004 to 2018 and together they share twins Thomas and Zoe, 17. As for the huge age gap between them, Quaid said it's never been an issue in their relationship because 32-year-old Savoie – a Texas McCombs School of Business graduate – is 'the light of my life'. 'I haven't spoken out about the age difference of my wife. Other people have. But…I really don't think about it,' he admitted. 'She's got so much going on that, you know, I just don't notice it.' The couple eloped in June 2020 in Santa Barbara, California, one year after meeting at a business event while she was working toward her second master's degree at the Texas McCombs School of Business. They wed in a seaside resort only with only their pastor as their witness. 'Just looking into her eyes, she was the most stunning bride,' Quaid later told People of the intimate affair. 'It was love at first sight,' he added of their first meeting. 'I just love who she is as a person. Her character, her intelligence, of course, her beauty. And her point of view of the world.'

Lindsay Lohan ditched Hollywood glamour for 'normal life' in Dubai
Lindsay Lohan is opening up about why she left Hollywood for a new life in Dubai. Lohan, 39, spent the majority of her young career in the spotlight attempting to evade the paparazzi. Now, she's traded in the flashing lights for a "very normal life" away from the scrutiny of Los Angeles. "It's just far away from Hollywood. And I live a very normal life," Lohan said during an appearance on "LIVE with Kelly and Mark." "There's no worry of like, I can't go eat at this place because someone's going to take a picture of my son. It's just, I feel very safe." "It's not legal," she explained, of paparazzi taking photos. "You can't even take a picture of someone else if you're at a restaurant. You have to ask the person. Which is a big difference. The privacy is unique." Lohan previously revealed the lack of privacy in Los Angeles left her stressed out. "It's hard in L.A. Even taking my son to the park in L.A., I get stressed. I'm like, 'Are there cameras?' In New York, there's no worry; no one bothers us," the "Mean Girls" star told Elle magazine in May. Everyone has their own thing going on. There's a different kind of energy in New York. I'd rather have downtime in New York than I would in L.A." "But the nice thing about L.A. is, I like space [and you get that here]. But I'm thinking as I'm saying this, the funny thing is, in Dubai I get all of those things. I get the privacy, I get the peace, I get the space. I don't have to worry there. I feel safe." The "Parent Trap" star, who gained fame at a very young age, noted her experience growing up in the spotlight was tainted by the paparazzi. "I feel like some of [my work] got overshadowed by paparazzi and all that kind of stuff when I was younger, and that's kind of annoying," Lohan told Bustle in 2024. "I wish that part didn't happen." "I feel like that kind of took on a life of its own. So that's why I wanted to disappear. I was like, 'Unless there's no story here, they're not going to focus on just my work.'" Since her return to the big screen, Lohan, who stars alongside Jamie Lee Curtis in "Freakier Friday," said she's found that prioritizing herself makes a huge difference in her overall well-being. For Lohan, family is also a priority. "I mean, it's the most important thing: my husband, my son and me," she added. "It's all about balance and, as I said, routine. Especially when you have a kid, routine is the most important thing. And whatever their routine is, I've got to live by that."

Dennis Quaid gushes that 'every day is paradise' with wife Laura Savoie
Dennis Quaid has gushed that "every day is paradise" with his wife Laura Savoie. The 71-year-old actor tied the knot with his other half, who is 39 years his junior, in 2020, after networking at a business event the year prior. The Parent Trap star - whose spouse is the founding partner of his production firm, Bonniedale - has been married three times before but insists he's never felt closer to anyone like he does his fourth wife. He told Fox News Digital: "Every day is paradise with her. It really is. "It's the closest relationship I've ever had with anybody. Every day is paradise. "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." Dennis - who has twins Zoe and Thomas, 17, with ex-wife Kimberly Buffington as well as Jack, 33, with fellow Hollywood star Meg Ryan - previously insisted he isn't bothered about the age gap between himself and 27-year-old Laura. He told The Guardian: "I didn't go out looking for an age gap or someone really younger than me. You have no control over who you fall in love with. I don't fall in love easy." Dennis was married to P.J. Soles from 1978 to 1983, actress Meg from 1991 to 2001, and Kimberly from 2004 until 2018. Meanwhile, Dennis previously insisted he doesn't get "emotionally worked up" about things these days because he has been through it all before and has found that life gets "easier" with age. He told Us Weekly about reaching 70 in 2024: "Life really gets easier as you get by. You enjoy it more because you've been through things before and so you don't get so emotionally worked up about it and you could say, 'Well, this is coming and it's going to pass.' Then the good times are just great. I really appreciate every day. I've never been happier to tell you the truth."

Lindsay Lohan and husband Bader Shammas join forces with mom Dina and siblings for Freakier Friday milestone
The Lohans came out in full force in support of Freakier Friday. Lindsay Lohan was supported by practically her entire family at a special screening of the new film on Monday. Joined by her husband Bader Shammas, mom Dina Lohan, 62, and siblings Ali, 31, Michael Jr., 37, and Dakota, 29, Lindsay couldn't have looked happier to have her family by her side on her big night. While Lindsay, 39, was just a teenager when she first starred in 2003's Freaky Friday, things are much different for the star nowadays. Lindsay now shares two-year-old son Luai with Bader, 38, her husband of three years. The Parent Trap actress looked absolutely mesmerizing in a fitted white dress with flared tulle skirt and strappy heels. Lindsay, who has been praised for her gorgeous complexion as of late, coated her blemish-free visage with shimmering blush, a nude coat of lip gloss, and a dramatic dusting of eye shadow. Her long blonde hair cascade down in mermaid inspired waves while a delicate necklace injected another punch of glam. Lindsay's mother Dina also looked incredible in a lilac floral print dress with her hair styled in loose waves and a side swept bang. As for sister Ali, she wowed in a silky blue dress and messy bun. Brother Dakota opted for an edgy energy with a black tank top, chain necklace, and grey slacks. Michael Jr. looked dapper in a grey suit, posing beside his wife Nina. Lindsay, Ali, Dakota, and Michael Jr. are the children of Dina and Michael Lohan, whom were married from 1985 to 2007. Lindsay's father also has son Landon, 12, and Logan, 10, with wife Kate Major, and daughter Ashley Horn, 29, with Kristi Kaufmann. Freakier Friday - which is a sequel to the 2003 film - sees Lindsay and Jamie Lee Curtis embroiled in quadruple chaos as they swap bodies again - 22 years after they first traded places. It's hard to believe it's been 22 years since Lindsay and Jamie portrayed Anna and Tess Coleman in Mark Waters' critically-acclaimed remake of Freaky Friday, which amassed $160.8M at the global box office. Jamie recently told People during a joint interview with Lindsay: 'I know I can trust her. I can't say that about a lot of people. I do know that if I tell her something, it's gonna stay with her. We've both been through hard things, because we're alive and life is hard. 'And we're not dead yet. So the truth of our experience together, it belies all of the kind of showbizzy stuff. We connected, and we really stayed connected. And that is special and rare for me.' Lindsay added: '"Safe" is a very important word to me. I have to feel safe around people. And Jamie is one of those people for me. Like, I feel very safe with you. I feel safe telling you things. So it's — I know you said "trust," but for me it's "safe."' The supernatural comedy marks Lindsay's first theatrically released leading role in 18 years after overshadowing her acting career with six court-ordered rehab stints and other Hollywood wild child antics. Much has changed since Lohan first starred in the Disney film - she is now raising a toddler with her husband The original film followed a mother and teen daughter (played by Curtis and Lohan, respectively) who magically switch bodies after reading a cryptic fortune cookie. The follow-up film follows a similar plotline to the first movie, however, it features a huge twist involving Gen Z teenage girls that spells chaos for all involved. This time round, Lindsay's character Anna is preparing to tie the knot with to Eric Davies (Manny Jacinto), however things are proving difficult as her teenage daughter Harper (Julia Butters) despises Eric's teen girl Lily (Sophia Hammons). Chad Michael Murray, who played Lindsay's on-screen boyfriend Jake in the 2003 film, also returns to his role.
