The 2026 Met Gala, a night where fashion and art collide, also served as a showcase for some of the cutest celebrity couples. From long-time partners to new debuts, the event offered a glimpse into the personal lives of these stars.
Love and Fashion
The Met Gala, an annual extravaganza, is not just about the fashion; it's an opportunity for couples to make a statement and showcase their unique bond. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, for instance, brought their signature fun and style, with Rihanna's crown and Rocky's whimsical Chanel outfit.
Co-Chairs and Their Plus Ones
Not everyone gets the privilege of bringing a date to the Met Gala, but co-chairs like Venus Williams can make an exception. Williams, alongside Beyoncé and Nicole Kidman, welcomed guests and arrived with her husband, Andrea Preti, by her side.
British Cool

Parenting and Romance
Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade, a busy parent duo, managed to carve out time for romance at the Met Gala. Their appearance proves that even with a busy family life, a little PDA on the red carpet is always welcome.
Broadway Legends
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster, Broadway legends, made their Met Gala debut as a couple. Their shared love for the arts and costarring roles in The Music Man added a special touch to their appearance.
A Night Out for the Parents
Seth Meyers and Alexi Ashe Meyers, a couple who dove into the Celine archives, showcased a unique Met Gala look. Seth's Gabriela Hearst suit with spider pins was a nod to Louise Bourgeois, adding an artistic touch to their night out.
When a Man Admires His Partner

Shared Passions
Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor, a long-married couple, attended the Met Gala in Knicks-fan attire, showcasing their shared love for basketball. Their outfits, a bright orange tie for Stiller and a cobalt blue gown for Taylor, were a perfect match.
