Name any Hollywood star whose never experienced divorce?

I can only think of one couple:

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver. Charlton Heston. And that's it.

Gregory Peck, Paul Newman - they've all seemed to have had at least one marriage fail.


Any others?

BTW, we're not here to judge.....

Even the ones who have or had some integrity, like Gregory Peck, Paul Newman - they've all seemed to have had at least one marriage fail.

so Paul Newman and Gregory Peck or any other star loses integrity because they have been divorced for any of the million reasons possible?

Getting back on track. Here's another:

Joanne Woodward. She never experienced divorce, but Paul Newman did.

i guess Paul should be seen as the amoral a-hole, but thankfully not Joanne because she hasn't been divorced and therefore free of sin.

Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee -- both stayed together for over 50 years, though both admitted to having an open marriage.

EDIT: Ruby Dee was divorced when she married Ossie Davis...
