Friends of both Nancy and Ronald Reagan would often remark about how deeply and passionately they loved each other, even after decades of marriage, a rare thing indeed in a world where half of all marriages end in divorce. The love story of the greatest president of the 20th Century and the actress and dancer whom he met in the early 1950s would make a great subject for a movie if Hollywood cared to make it. But the romance of Nancy and Ronald Reagan also changed the world. Without her, there might not have been him.

Hollywood just leave them and the movie alone we lived the real thing we don’t need your take on it
If Hollywood were to make a movie about their love story, it would be full of falsehoods and lies. They would portray Reagan a dawdling abusive husband and Nancy as a Stepford wife.
More Camelot crap. She was a crazy person, addicted to psychic crap. But she adored and protected her love and he adored and protected her and all of us - Thank God for her and Him. The rest is hooey.
I think that is a nasty slanderous thing to say. After the attempted assissination on President Reagan, Nancy in shock and fear did turn to an astrologer, hoping to find some protection for her husband as she was was fearful for her husband’s life. Reagan did humor her in this, perhaps more than he should have. That being said, Nancy Reagan did not spend her life controlled by superstition. Remember, too, Hillary Clinton held a seance in the White House, hoping to “connect” with Eleanor Roosevelt.
We need to change the state of the world and our role in it, again. No “New World Order” fascist/commie globalist nonsense.
Have to correct a rumor. Fifty percent of our marriages do not end up in divorce. Usually people who do get divorced do so multiple times. (We are bad at it?) But most people do stay married for life.
“According to the article, the U.S. divorce rate peaked in 1979. In 1981 there were reportedly 5.3 divorced people for every 1,000 people in the country. By 2011, that number was as low as 3.6. An American Community Survey has further indicated that the nation’s rate of divorce has dropped 11 percent since 2008. For some, this means fewer retirement plans to split in complex asset division agreements, a reduced need to separate marital property from separate property and more.”

Lots of interesting stats here but don’t know where they got them or how so read it like fiction.

I heard long ago that life long marriage between virgins was 97%. But haven’t been able to find the source since the internet came about. :)
“Specifically, the research shows that couples who are active in their faith are much less likely to divorce. Catholic couples were 31% less likely to divorce; Protestant couples 35% less likely; and Jewish couples 97% less likely, which in itself is quite impressive, I must say.”
