Regis & Joy Philbin – 49 Years

You may know Regis Philbin as a media personality, actor, and singer, but he is best known as a host of famed television shows like Live! With Regis and Kathie Lee and Live! with Regis and Kelly. Following a 28-year run, Regis announced his surprising retirement from the latter in January 2011. “This will be my last year on this show,” he said during an episode of the popular morning talk show, according to ABC News.

In 1970, Regis married a fellow television personality and interior decorator Joy Philbin. Despite the age difference, the two have been married for 49 years, proving love can last in Hollywood. The two are blessed with two children, J.J. and Joanna. Now all grown up, J.J. is also working in the entertainment world as a producer. We hope J.J. has received pieces of advice from his father about the business and right money management before his father’s passing.
