In the Spotlight: Denzel and Pauletta Washington

Everyone knows Denzel the Oscar winner, philanthropist and all around great guy. But behind every great man is a greater woman. For Denzel that woman is Pauletta Washington.  We see Denzel front and center when it comes to blockbuster films and starring roles on Broadway but Paulette is no stranger to the spotlight appearing on Broadway, the big screen (Beloved) and on television (The Parker’s).

"We live in a time -- and it's not for me to judge anyone -- when people give up too easy. It’s a disposable society; get another spouse." Denzel Washington

The couple has been married for 30 years and celebrated their anniversary on June 25th.  They met in 1983 while Denzel was filming his first television film, Wilma in 1977.  They dated six years before Denzel popped the question and Pauletta politely turned him down…twice.  Yes twice! Pauletta told Ebony, “I’d seen so many messed up relationships” and she wanted a strong and solid marriage like her parents. She wanted to be 110 percent sure this was right.

Denzel and Pauletta are often labeled “Hollywood’s Longest Running Couple”. They are very private when it comes to their personal and family life. As they should be, because the media is ruthless on Hollywood couples. Don’t mistake their quietness for weakness or disloyalty. They keep it quiet because it’s what’s best for their relationship.  They both know that marriage is not easy and you have to work at it.  Pauletta mentioned to Ebony magazine, “I live with this man. I see the down part. I see the sad part. I see every part. He has and knows he has that stability in me as his wife. That’s gives him strength, regardless of if he misuses it. I can’t dwell on that. But I do know that gives him a great platform to go and fly.”

Lately the media has been throwing a lot of hate towards Denzel and Pauletta's marriage claiming the couple is on the verge of divorce. We at LWR would like to tell the media keep your hate because this couple is in it for the long haul! Denzel and Pauletta, congratulations on your 30 year anniversary and LWR prays that you continue to be a good example that love, family and strength can make for a lasting marriage in Hollywood.  --KH
