5 long-lasting celebrity couples without rings
Many of us dream of wedding veils, rings, and the joyous exclamations of "Cheers!" Yet, marriage isn't always a guarantee of a long and happy relationship. There are numerous examples of couples who remain devoted to each other without official documents. Some even believe that if they had married, their union would have dissolved long ago.
Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble
Kris Jenner, who has been married twice, has been dating the television host since 2014. Fans began speculating about a possible wedding, and a few years later, Kris fueled these rumors by appearing in public with a ring. However, it seems these were just rumors.
"I don't have the need to put on a long, white dress and walk down an aisle," the head of the Kardashian-Jenner clan explained.

Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham
They met in 1986 at a charity event, the same year The Oprah Winfrey Show premiered. The couple became engaged, but soon Winfrey realized that marriage was not something she truly wanted.
"I wanted to know he felt I was worthy of being his missus, but I didn’t want the sacrifices, the compromises, the day-in-day-out commitment required to make a marriage work," the television host said.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham
Despite a 20-year age difference, the model and actor have been living together for 14 years, keeping their personal life away from the public eye. The couple has two children but is in no rush to formalize their relationship. Rosie claims that being in a happy relationship is more important to her than having an official status.
“I think the time will come. We’ve been so focused on our work for long and Jack came alongю We definitely talk about it. We’re looking forward to that time,” Huntington-Whiteley said a few years ago.

The actress and musician have been together for over ten years. They met in 2013 at a party thanks to Ed Sheeran. They got engaged a year later but broke off the engagement in December 2015. After some time, Courteney and Johnny realized they were meant for each other and rekindled their relationship. However, marriage is not on the horizon for them at the moment.

Vin Diesel and Paloma Jiménez
The actor and Mexican model have been together since 2007, and they now have three children: Hania, Vincent, and Pauline. Vin and Paloma rarely discuss their relationship publicly. The Fast and Furious star has repeatedly emphasized his appreciation for privacy.
“I’m not gonna put it out there on a magazine cover like some other actors. I come from the Harrison Ford, Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino code of silence,” the actor said.
