#5. Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham

One of the most powerful couples in the world met at Yale University in 1970, as you can probably tell from the fashion statement each was rocking above. The Clintons were married on October 11, 1975. In 1980 their only child, daughter Chelsea, was born.

Bill Clinton was only 32-years-old when he was first elected Governor of the state of Arkansas in 1978. Thus began a meteoric rise in politics for both Bill and Hillary. Clinton was well-known for his charismatic personality and was seen as a rising star in the Democratic party.

In 1992, Clinton was elected President when he defeated George H.W. Bush. He was only 46-years-old when he was elected. Clinton served two terms as President, and his personal life was in the spotlight continuously as rumors of liaisons with various women captured the headlines.

After serving as First Lady for 8 years, Hillary Clinton served as a U.S. Senator for New York before acting as Barack Obama’s Secretary of State from 2009-2013. In the hotly contested 2016 Presidential election, Hillary ran against Donald Trump and was defeated. Today, both Bill and Hillary Clinton are retired from public office but continue to be in the spotlight due to their long political and personal histories.
