Ben Stiller and his wife, actress Christine Taylor, are known to be one of Hollywood’s longest and happiest marriages, but that has not always been the case.

Stiller said he had "so much more appreciation" for his relationship with Taylor after they reconciled following a multiyear separation.

After their reunion, Stiller told Esquire in Feb. 2022: “We were separated and got back together and we’re happy about that. It’s been really wonderful for all of us. Unexpected, and one of the things that came out of the pandemic.”
