Celebrity couples? Please. The Curies discovered radioactive elements AND remained happily married despite the fact that they were literally glowing at night from radiation exposure. Marie Curie won TWO Nobel Prizes when most women weren't allowed near a lab, while Pierre turned down solo recognition because he knew scientific partnerships trump fame. Their notebooks are still so radioactive today that you need protective gear to read them. Now THAT'S relationship goals - discovering elements that can kill you while simultaneously revolutionizing physics, chemistry, and medicine. Modern celebrities might have Instagram, but the Curies had polonium and radium.
