It's easy to believe that all celebrity couples have a fairytale romance, but many have admitted that their trip to the alter wasn't always easy. In fact, some took time apart during their romantic journey.
We've rounded up all the couples that almost didn't end up together forever, and had at least one break up on the path to their wedding day.
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard
Despite picture of true love now, Kristen Bell revealed to PopSugar that her now-husband Dax Shepard actually broke up with her shortly after they began dating.
"He sat me down and said, 'I can't have this right now. I think you're wonderful, but I am still dating other people,'" she said. "And then I, like, liquefied and fell to the ground, but I felt incredibly respected that he had the balls to tell me we weren't in the same place."
Of course, shortly after, he knew he made a mistake.
"He called me and he was like, 'I don't know what I was thinking. I was dating someone else but they're just not as interesting as you, and I don't know what I'm doing,' and he came back," Bell told PopSugar.
Shepard and Bell got married in 2013 so everything obviously worked out for them, but she said that she doesn't let him forget that they almost were never married.
"But I still always remind him of when he broke up with me," she told PopSugar.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend
They are the internet's favorite couple now, but John Legend revealed to The Guardian that his relationship with Chrissy Teigen was almost over after a particularly stressful day.
"I was really stressed and busy," Legend said. "I was just like: 'I’d just be happier single right now.'"
Well Teigen wasn't having it; she told him no, they weren't breaking up.
Technically this wasn't a real breakup. Teigen later tweeted clarifying that she recognized that Legend was just having a particularly tough day.
"It wasn't a a typical breakup," she tweeted. "He was on tour and his voice hurt and he was being a whiny face about everything and so yeah, I was like 'no.'"
Still it sure makes for a funny story knowing now how happy the couple is now.
Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo
Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo may be proud parents and a happily married couple today, but once upon a 2013 they ended things in a kind of messy way.
The couple began dating in 2012 after Levine broke up with Prinsloo's friend and fellow Victoria's Secret model Anne Vyalitsyna. Levine and Prinsloo dated until May 2013, when he reportedly began dating Sports Illustrated supermodel Nina Agdal.
But that relationship was short-lived. By July 2013, Levine and Prinsloo got back together and got engaged. They were married in June 2014, and Prinsloo gave birth to daughter Dusty Rose in September 2016. The couple is expecting another child together.
