These Seriously Cute Couple Moments from 2016 Made Us Believe in True Love
In a year that saw the end of a Taylor Swift relationship that seemed destined to last and the divorce of Brangelina, it’s not hard to feel cynical about love — never even MIND trying to find it in Hollywood. But for every breakup this year, there’s been an amazingly adorable moment that’s made us think maybe — just maybe — true love is real and is out there for everyone. Here are some of our fave celeb couple moments from 2016.
1. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Subtle Declarations of Love: First it was the matching bracelets, then this subtle necklace with a tiny “M” for Meghan and “H” for Harry. Gah!
2. Drake and Rihanna’s Whirlwind Summer Romance: It seems like, once again, just as quickly as it began, Drake and Rihanna’s latest fling was over. But that doesn’t mean we didn’t get to swoon over their giddy chemistry and the fact that they got matching tattoos. We have a feeling we haven’t seen the last of #AubRhi.

Funny there's no dad-shaming. When both of us go out to dinner, shame both of us so Chrissy doesn't have to take it all. We'll split it.

3. John Legend Standing Up for Chrissy Teigen Against Mom-Shamers: Literally every day of Chrissy and John’s life together seems like #RelationshipGoals. But in the spring, when they were spotted out for dinner without their newborn daughter Luna, the internet attacked Chrissy for being a negligent mom. John quickly stepped in to point out the ridiculous double standard and shut down the mom-shaming. SWOON.

11. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s Romantic French Getaway:Oh yeah, and also that naked beach vacay too.
12. Ciara and Russell Williams’ Surprise Wedding: These two lovebirds snuck off to a castle in England to tie the knot this summer, and it looked like a literal fairy tale.
13. Amy Schumer and Ben Hanisch’s #CoupleGoals HalloweenCostumes:These two have been making us swoon since meeting on a dating app and clearly being head over heels for each other since the year started.
14. Liam Hemsworth’s Most Perfect Birthday Celebration for Miley Cyrus: These two have tried to keep a low profile, but with speculation about their reunion and re-engagement swirling all year, it’s been tricky to manage. They’ve been letting their guards down a little, being less shy about showing their lives together on social media, and last month we got to see just how well Liam knows and cares about his girl when Miley posted pics from the AMAZING birthday celebration he threw for her on Insta. Too cute.
