Liz Hurley and Shane Warne More odd celebrity couples

Liz Hurley and Shane Warne More odd celebrity couples ; They may not go together as obviously as Romeo and Juliet, but Shane and Liz aren’t the strangest pairing ever. Here’s a few more who’ve had a mad romance...

Brad Pitt and Sinitta
The So Macho singer dated the actor for two years before he shot to fame in the 1991 film Thelma & Louise. Remarkably, she was the one who dumped him. She said: “He was fun and silly and we laughed so much together. Brad was perfect. I was the problem. I went out with people because they were pretty.”

Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley
She was the daughter of the King and he was the King of Pop so it was fitting that Lisa Marie Presley and Michael Jackson got together. Twenty days after her divorce from first husband Danny Keough in 1994, she married Jackson. The marriage lasted just two years but Lisa Marie insisted they always had a normal and healthy sex life.

Anna Nicole Smith and J Howard Marshall II
So what attracted stripper Anna Nicole Smith to elderly ­billionaire J Howard Marshall? . Smith, 26, and Marshall, 89, wed in 1994. He looked more in need of an undertaker than a vicar and died 14 months later, triggering a battle for his cash.

Chantelle Houghton and Rav Wilding
She fell in love on national TV. But Chantelle Houghton, 27, is finally over ex-husband Preston and has hooked up with Crimewatch and The One Show presenter Rav Wilding, 33. Mutual friend Dominic Littlewood introduced the couple, who insist: “We didn’t kiss until the third date.”

Sven and Ulrika
Ulrika Jonsson had been linked to Prince Edward. So perhaps it should have been no great surprise when she hooked up with fellow Swede Sven-Goran Eriksson. The then England manager played away and long term girlfriend Nancy Dell’Olio was furious when the Daily Mirror revealed the ­relationship. He went back to Nancy for the 2002 World Cup.

John Major and Edwina Currie
The nation collectively gagged when Edwina Currie revealed they’d fallen for each other way back in 1984. “A large man in blue underpants” was the hideous description she gave of the former grey man of politics. He later called for a “back-to-basics” approach to public morality, but not his own.

Tom Cruise and Cher
Cruise was 23 when he had a fling with pop diva Cher. She said he was an awkward young man who was struggling to adjust to his new life: “We went for dinner in a restaurant and the waitress was from his old school. He told me she never talked to him back then, but now he was recognised he got all her attention.”

Jordan & Gareth Gates
Gareth Gates managed to shed his wholesome mummy’s boy image after a one night knee-trembler with ­pneumatic model Jordan. The churchgoing Pop Idol winner was just 17 when he lost his virginity to Katie Price in 2002. She was pregnant with son Harvey at the time. Gates denied the affair for a year.

Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller
She had the pick of any man on the planet. But Marilyn Monroe fell for intellectual playwright Arthur Miller. He was 35 and a married father of two when he met buxom Marilyn, 24, in 1951. They married in 1956, but it was a rocky relationship blighted by miscarriages and pill taking. They were divorced in 1961.

Steve Coogan and Courtney Love
Alan Partridge and Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain’s ex-wife were brought together by a love of partying. But their two-week affair in 2005 ended badly with Love claiming she was having his baby and that he was to blame for actor Owen Wilson’s drug-fuelled meltdown.

Lembit Opik and Gabriela Irimia
Politicians are supposed to be a dull lot. So well done to former Lib Dem MP Lembit who snared weather girl Sian Lloyd and then a Cheeky Girl. The then 41-year-old politician looked ridiculous with Gabriela Irimia, 24, in his arms, and they split after getting engaged. Lembit is now dating Merily McGivern, 21.

Salman Rushdie and Padma Lakshmi
They say the brain is the sexiest organ of all. That may go some way to explaining how ­controversial author Salman Rushdie landed his stunning model bride Padma Lakshmi. Rushdie was six years younger than Lakshmi’s father yet they still went on to marry in 2004. It only lasted three years.
