Celebrity marriages seems have taken the hit a number of times although some chose to build back their broken homes.

Stargist.com presents you with 5 celebrities who have gotten back together even after their marriage hit the rocks.

The news of Tee Billz attempting to commit suicide as well accusing Tiwa of witchcraft and infidelity set the internet on fire last year. Shortly after, Tiwa released a 45-minute video, where she revealed some shocking information about her husband. From cheating to owing millions of money and drug use, she exposed it all.

Most people didn’t expect them to reconcile after the incident but according to various sources, the couple is back together after their families intervened. Other sources say that Tee Billz took some time out of the country to recuperate and spend time with his son. When he came back, the couple gave their marriage another shot.

The scandal all started in the elevator when the world watched Solange, Beyoncé’s younger sister attack Jay-Z at the Met Gala after-party. There were rumours of Solange confronting Jay-Z on cheating and after Beyoncé talking about “Becky with the good hair”, (a modern colloquial description for a mistress) in her album Lemonade.

To top things off, in Jay-Z’s new album 4:44, he apologised to Beyoncé for cheating and also referenced the elevator moment. The couple never addressed the rumours or cheating allegations.

This couple started kicking it from an early age and got married when Vanessa was 18 and Kobe was 22. The Lakers basketball player was first charged with sexual assault which was dropped because the girl in question never showed up to court but according to various sources, Vanessa kept getting news of the player’s promiscuous ways and decided to file for a divorce in 2011 but never went through with it.

While Vanessa stood to gain about 100 million dollars plus 365 thousand dollars for child support from Kobe who has an annual income of 52 million dollars, the couple decided to stick it out after ten years of marriage.

10 Celebrities Who opened up about their Miscarriages

Miscarriage is a common thing that can happen to anyone, even celebrities.

Before welcoming her first child, Blue Ivy, in 2012, Beyonce was pregnant for the first time in 2011, though she sadly learned she lost the baby after a check-up found that there was no heartbeat. Along with channeling her brief through music, the singer opened up about the experience in her 2013 documentary, "Life Is But a Dream," in which she called the miscarriage "the saddest thing [she's] ever been through."

That same year, in an interview with Oprah, the Grammy winner explained why she decided to go public with her miscarriage.

“There are so many couples that go through that and it was a big part of my story,” she said. “It’s one of the reasons I did not share I was pregnant the second time, because you don’t know what’s going to happen. And that was hard, because all of my family and my friends knew and we celebrated. It was hard.”

Along with 5-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, Beyonce also recently welcomed two newborn twins—a son named Sir and a daughter named Rumi.

Since giving birth to a healthy daughter in 2010, Pink has also recently welcomed newborn son, James Moon, in 2016. In 2011, she opened up to People about how motherhood has changed her. "You hear people say it all the time, how life changes so drastically. But you can't possibly grasp how beautiful that is until you have your child," she said.

Christie Brinkley

Christie Brinkley revealed in a 1998 interview with Good Housekeeping that she's experienced three miscarriages, and what she learned from each of them. “After the first miscarriage, I tried to take the attitude that it was my body’s way of telling me that this pregnancy wasn’t meant to be, and that it was better for everybody,” she said.

She continued, "But after the second one, it was really devastating. Four months is a lot of living with that little life in you—thinking about it, eating right for it, nurturing it and all of a sudden, it dies.”

Since that time, the model has welcomed two children—19-year-old daughter Sailor and 22-year-old son Jack. She has another daughter, 31-year-old Alexa Ray, who she gave birth to before her miscarriages.
