We remember the ‘60s for the music, fashion and freedom. And the drug-fueled love affairs. But that’s not to say romance didn’t exist. So here are the most iconic celebrity couples of the 1960s…
Sonny and Cher
Cherilyn Sarkisian met Salvatore Bono when she was only 16. (He was 27.) But at that time, when they first crossed paths at a party, Bono had little interest in her. “I was with my girlfriend, who was really beautiful,” Cher said. “He liked her, so he didn’t really say anything to me.” Regardless, Sonny and Cher began dating shortly thereafter (and moved in together immediately).
