I have to do a persuasive essay about cohabitation/living together without marriage. I need to examples of famous couples who cohabited and are still together after a long time and another of a couple that actually got married and are still together to this day.
Please help. Thank you.

There are several couples that I can think about. One is Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward (both actors) and still living.
Bill and Camille Cosby are still married
Anne Bancroft and Mel Brooks are both still married
Dennis Weaver (McLeod TV Series) and Gerry were married in
1945 and are still presently married.
JC and Bobbi Curtiss (Seaman) Married July 7/77 He is a comedian, and she is a singer/actress/dancer in the US. They are not greatly famous and are personal friends of mine, but, they are still married to each other and still very happy. He is the 7th son of a 7th son (which apparently is lucky) and is part Sioux/Jewish (he calls himself Siouxish)
Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee married in the 40's until he passed away at the age of 87.
Ruby Dee said the following about marriage, this this pretty much sums it up about love and the whole darned thing:
"How to ride the rough waves in a relation long enough for the waters to get calm? When does it sink in that overcoming difficult times gets easier with practice? How do you drag some of the good feelings, good times vibrations into the stormy places? To love someone long and deep is a "consummation devoutly to be wished"!... It is day by day, one step at a time. It may not mean two bathrooms, but just some space, some privacy, some area to be alone. ...Unlike the wedding event, that takes place in a day, marriage is a long process that goes on at some level every day for the rest of your life....We have to learn how to live together... I thought I loved you, Ossie, when we got married, but as I see now, I was only in the kindergarten of the proposition. To arrive at love is like working on a double doctorate in the subject of Life.
Hope this helps you.
