I am blessed to be in a lasting relationship with my best friend of 28 years (I have been married to him for 20 years!) I know what it takes to be in a devoted relationship that withstands the tests of time while traversing the hills and valleys of life’s journey. I was recently asked to write a featurette on such a couple. I am feeling both proud and lucky to have been given this opportunity!
Married for 37 years, living in the public eye in the entertainment business and having faced numerous hardships throughout their lives, I found the story of Gloria and Emilio Estefan, Jr. to be both fascinating and quite inspiring. Having loved their music for decades, I never really considered myself a big fan. Thankfully, I had the opportunity to learn about their many accomplishments and the gifts that this wonderful pair are sharing with the world through their love, their music, and their philanthropy. . .

Thank you BB! I wish you the same! It will happen! I have a cousin who has been married five times. The last one for over 25 years and going strong!
very inspiring!
I just love this couple so much! you can see the love they have for each other in their eyes! really admirable, especially since they are in the spotlight!
Yep! And if you follow them on Twitter, you will see that it carries through every day! She gets excited to have lunch with him! They are always together.
They have been together so long and still are united as a couple. That sets such a positive example of how a relationship can last.
Beautiful to see respectable and hard working Latin couples staying together and in LOVE!
seeing couples that are together after all those years is definitely inspiring!
They do have a great relationship and I hope it lasts, because so many others that are in the lime light do not. Relationships are hard work, but very much worth having.
Fabulous post! Emilio and Gloria definitely know the keys to a lasting relationship! 🙂
They look so great together. Continued happiness to all married couples!
AWWW! That is so sweet! Congrats for all they year of marriage and hope that like you and Gloria I’ll be able to have a last relationship with my hubby!
Thanks! You can do it!
They are inspirational in their marriage longevity. I am 34 and can say I have been married to my best friend for 15 years!! I got married young but he was the smartest decision I ever made!! Nice post. 🙂
Thanks and congrats!
Great article and congrats on your lasting union!
Wow. 28 years! How amazing! That truly is inspiring for this non-married lady!
Thanks!
Gloria Estefan has also inspired me to want to go to Miami.
Let’s go! I want to eat at the restaurants!
