Denzel Washington Turns 68 – He Chose ‘Very Difficult’ Marriage Regardless… ( READ)

American movie star Denzel Washington entertained fans amidst a “very tough” marriage. Despite the pressure of being famous, the actor and his wife scaled through, and here is the secret to their marital bliss.Denzel Washington, who turns 68 today, remains one of America’s top actors who has successfully formed an unmatched legacy since his career success.
The star’s charms on set, coupled with his good looks, have only added to his impressive acting skill.As an actor, director, and producer, Washington stole viewers’ hearts with his greatest production yet. Some of his acting credits include films such as “The Equalizer, “Training Day,” and TV series that have kept fans glued to their screens.

The star who used to describe himself as that “minority among minorities” and “a working black actor” watched his career take off to an amazing height after starring on “Carbon Copy” in 1981.

Over the years, Washington’s hard work and commitment to the movie industry earned him different awards. It is no secret that his appeal smites many female fans, but the star has proven that he is unfazed by the attention he gets.Washington and Pearson met in 1977, on the set of the film “Wilma,” and the co-stars began dating shortly afterward.

Since being with Pearson, the “American Gangster” actor has had nothing but praises for the woman in his life. Pearson, 71, is also a renowned actor in Hollywood.

She has made remarkable appearances in movies, including the Oscar-nominated “Philadelphia” and “She’s Gotta Have It.” All well know the couple’s love for each other as they have stopped at nothing to show off their wedding bliss after many decades.

But while many are aware of the beautiful bond Pearson and Washington share, it may come as a surprise that it took a lot of effort before the A-list star convinced Pearson to walk down the aisle.

In a 2013 interview, the two lovebirds shared jokes about Washington’s several proposals and how Pearson said “no” more than once. Washington had proposed twice and only got the answer he wanted during his third attempt.

The pair finally got married on June 25, 1983. Since saying “I do,” Pearson and Washington have expanded their family with four children. Their son John David is an actor, and his younger siblings, Katia and twins Olivia and Malcolm, all took after their parent’s career path.

However, while they appear to have a perfect marriage, Washington once said every relationship has its “ups and downs.” Sometimes sacrifices had to be made, and Pearson has made such significant steps in her marriage to the movie star.

Pearson’s Sacrifice
While starting a family with Washington, Pearson had to drop her Broadway career to focus on becoming a mother and a wife. But she didn’t regret doing this, and while speaking about her marriage, Pearson once noted:

“It takes a lot of sacrifice on both parties’ part.”
