well for starters just a little technicality - nick lachey was making more money then jessica simpson when they got married.
one problem with being a celebrity is that you have many obligations that take you all over the place. they have to deal with constant tabloids, photographers, and people coming up to them all the time.
us "average" looking women as you call us do not have to deal with those issues. of course we are all busy, but our every little mistake isn't splashed about for everyone to see.
every marriage takes time, patience, understanding, and of course love. you have to look positively forward, not be worried about getting a divorce. i stay positive with my husband. we always settle any disputes we might have. don't go to bed angry.
there are plenty of couples out there who have hit the 25+ year mark together, even a few in hollywood too. my parents just celebrated their 30th, my in-laws there 27th.
you are getting married you stated - congrats! now settle down and think for a minute as to why you want to marry this man. is there anything about this man that worries you? if yes then talk it out with him. make sure you discuss an array of topics: Kids/work/politics/housing/etc.
this is a lifetime commitment, and the best decision i ever made :)

First off, too much emphasis is put on these Hollywood people. Who gives a crap. I got divorced, was it in every newspaper from here to all around the world. Why does everyone think they deserve to know all about these peoples lives.
Okay sorry, "regular women" I guess that is a matter of how you feel about yourself. Why don't you think you are the most beautifull women in the world. I would guess that your fiance does. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Do I think those women you mentioned are pretty, beautiful, whatever. Sure I do. But my wife is the most beautiful women I have ever met. It is her as a whole person though, not just her eyes, or her physical attributes.
I think the number is some where like 52% of marriage will end in divorce. A marriage is; what both of you put into it. It is a lot of work. A lot of ups and downs. Keep the major aspects of life in check. Money, sex, family, religion, politics, etc. Take care of those things ahead of time. Make sure you have respect for each other, and communicate with each other. You have no idea how those women treated those guys or vise versa. They might be the most demanding, inconsiderate people in the entire world. Getting married is great, just realize it is a lot of work, from both parties. Set common goals and enjoy each other.
Congrats.

You have to consider the fact that these women ARE some of the most beautiful women in the world and they have people verifing that fact on a daily basis. But beautiful women does not equal perfect marriage in any sense. With the celeb world that is Hollywood, these men and women have every desire met instantly. They also have every temptation in front of them 24/7. Money, greed, fame, all of these things can (and do) ruin a marriage (even in the "real world"). The trick to keeping YOUR marriage alive and well is to not let the superficial things get in the way (like these celebs do). Looks have nothing to do with these women losing their men (or the men losing their women).

Usually "the most beatiful women" and the "most handsome men" are being followed non stop by paparazzi and rumor mills. Their "jobs" take them all over the place not allowing "quality time" to be with each other. How would you like your entire life to be captured by flashing light bulbs, pushy morons with microphones, no privacy, and every little fight you have the tabloids read "So and So are fighting....Divorce?". Plus while away on sets many feel lonely and fall into the arms of the costar. OOPS.
Hollywood is not the real world. In the real world we know how to communicate (most of the time) and our lives are not disrupted by headlines.

Forget those women, they are not a "real" picture of the average women. Also, we only see the ups and downs of their relationships and everything is so publicized. Have 50 photographers ever followed you around while you were shopping? NO.
So, stop thinking that we have to be them. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it takes two -- just because the women are getting divorced doesn't mean that their ex's are perfect.

You have realize that there are good times and bad times. I don't think enough people swallow their pride and say they are sorry even when they might have been right. You can have a fight over something so small and it can change your whole relationship. I know I try to always say to my spouse that I love him. I can be very mad, but some how...it helps when I say that to him...he doesn't stay mad.
This is a disposable society. People don't go and get things fixed any more. If your toaster breaks...you though it out and get a new one instead of getting it repaired. I think a lot of marriages are distroyed and they really don't have to be.

It's easy to have a wedding. It takes work from BOTH partners to make a marriage. The key to "real" women staying married is finding "real" men to marry, and then both bride and groom being mature enough to sit down, discuss problems, find solutions, and not give up or forget that they're in love.

Everyone is different, I think that fact that your thinking this shows that it won't happen to you, because your aware of it.... Don't worry or stress about this at all. Your wedding is going to be great and your marriage is going to be even better. Some times marriage doesn't work out, but look at the couples it does work for..... Sarah Jessica Parker and her hubby, there are a lot of beautiful celebs that are making it, with their spouses. Don't stress at other couples only worry about your own and it will be perfect.

It has little to do with what they look like. Their work lives got in the way of their relationships & most of them (excluding Reese) decided not work on it. Don't worry - I'm sure that your man loves you because of WHO you are, and even though I'm sure you are gorgeous, that is not all he is worried about. He wants someone the build a life & family with, unlike (excluding Reese again) the women celebrities of this day. Good luck!! He loves you!!

I think it's because most women limit themselves. These women all married famous men with more money than the average man. To me it seems like they limited themselves to men in Hollywood. We should all expand our horizons as far as a man's social status.
