Dennis Quaid openly discusses his marriage with Laura Savoie, who is 39 years younger than him.
In a remarkable turn of events, Hollywood actor Dennis Quaid has found love in an unexpected place. The 71-year-old star, known for his role in the movie "Sovereign," met his partner, Laura Savoie, in 2019 when she was a Ph.D. student at the University of Texas.
Their love story began as a whirlwind romance, with Quaid describing it as "love at first sight" in a previous interview with Fox News Digital. Since then, their relationship has brought a joy of life that Quaid has never experienced before. He recently expressed that every day with Savoie is paradise and considers her to be the love of his life.
The couple's age difference of about 39 years (Quaid being 71 and Savoie 32 as of 2025) seems to have little impact on their relationship. They don't really notice the age difference and credit their strong connection to fate or divine intervention, as Quaid put it, "Love finds a way, wherever it is."
Despite the unusual circumstances surrounding their wedding, they secretly married in June 2020 in a private beach ceremony in Santa Barbara, California. Their initial plans for a larger Hawaiian wedding were changed due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Professionally, they also collaborate, as Quaid appointed Savoie as founding partner of his production company, Bonniedale Films, in 2021.
Their relationship timeline and views highlight a strong, loving partnership despite the age difference and unusual circumstances around their wedding. The couple seems very happy, with Quaid emphasizing their great relationship and daily bliss.
