Speaker 2 (00:03):
There was an interesting article that I was reading and
I thought, oh, this is I love these stories high
school sweethearts, and it was the celebrities who found there.
It was the male celebrities who found their wives in
high school love that And I thought, oh, that it's
so amazing that you can spend so much time with
a person and still love them forever.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
To meet them at the early teens and then to
be turning forty fifty sixty and still be in love
with that same person, it goes to absolute madness. I mean,
it's a beautiful story.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
It is a beautiful story. But then I had to
have a bit of a chuckle because then the first
three couples that popped up, I went on, hang on,
first one is this guy here?

Speaker 1 (00:41):
It doesn't make it.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
So this is Jon bon Jovi met Dorothy Hurley in
high school, and he said, I was immediately drawn to
Dorothy from the moment I late eyes on edited a
New Jersey high school. And then he said, maybe it
was because it was her exam answers that got me
over the lines, because she let me cheat off her

(01:04):
in history and this is the thing. Unfortunately, he ended
up cheating for the rest of their relationship. Dorothy is
still with John bon Jovie, but he has admitted before
that he hasn't been the best husband. A couple of.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Tours were halfway there. So he started the relationship by
cheating on the exam and then was just consistent the
whole way through.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Its will continue to cheat.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Come on, honey, you know what I'm like.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Next couple, Snoop Dog and Shanta brought us. I don't
think had a bit of a colorful life. I've seen a.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Couple of his movies and I would suggest Chante wasn't
in them.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
So they meet in high school in nineteen eighty nine.
Amazing story, fell in love with each other. But you know,
as soon as Snoop got big, it's well known that Snoops,
I mean snooped around. She said in an interview in
two thousand and seven. I was trying to get a
divorce there for a while, but I went back and
I fell back in love with him, and you know,

(02:02):
we had kids together. I love being a mother, and
ever since then they've been very very close. The third
one is lead singer of You Too, Bona.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
He's pretty clean, cup, isn't he? Bono?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
This is a beautiful story. Now when I think I
don't think there's well, hasn't he written a couple of
songs for Ali Houston, his wife apologizing? Oh? Has he?
The sweetest thing I think was written that was an
apologize it and for a birthday or their anniversary to
do a makeup beautiful story. They met when they were twelve.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
It was Ali's first real boyfriend. And obviously you two
traveled around the world. It was in nineteen seventy six.
They got together the same year that you two formed,
seventy six. Nineteen seventy six, that's the year that I
was born. But that isn't it amazing? I mean, as he.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Went to it.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
If you're a high school sweetheart to some of the
biggest musical stars in the world and you're not, this
is the thing You're sitting at home going wondering, I
wonder what they're getting up to.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, but the thing is they've got a secret weapon.
Like if you and I did the wrong thing, I
suppose you try and make up, you know, your deeds
by I don't know, going by a candle or something
or a lamp from Ikea. These guys write songs. So guys,
I'm so sorry, darling, but I've written this song for
you for It's called the Sweetest Thing. I think you're
gonna like it. It's fine, and then they're all forgiven

(03:30):
because it's becomes the most beautiful song and you know,
part of the lyrics and this song is probably I'll
never do it to you again.

Speaker 2 (03:37):

brought us and Ali Houston the most patient forgiving women
in the world.
