While the world is becoming a more accepting place every day, there are still those who hold some resentment when it comes to interracial couples. Stars like Serena Williams and Omari Hardwick have been blasted by fans and haters alike for marrying outside of their own race, but that hasn’t stopped them from living their best life with the one they love.

Check out these couples who prove love is more than skin deep.

The hilarious couple tied the knot in 2016, just one year before Peele’s massively successful film, Get Out,  hit theaters. As the film centered on a Black man’s meeting with his White girlfriend’s family going horribly, horribly wrong, the couple have taken quips about their own romance in stride, with Peele jokingly saying the film was loosely based on is experience with Peretti’s kinfolk.

The Real talk show host Tamera Mowry has been open and honest about the criticism she’s received over her interracial relationship with husband, Adam Housley, but shared with PEOPLE that she was raised not to see color, saying, “I was raised to see character. When my mom found out that I was dating a white man, she said, ‘Listen, I went through a lot and I want to make sure you love this man, because it’s not easy. You’ll face scrutiny. So make sure that you guys are in this together and make sure you understand what you will face.’”

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle

 

Great Britain’s Prince Harry is head-over-heels for African-American actress Meghan Markle, so much so that he’s refused to have the former Suits star sign a prenuptial agreement. The couple are soon to be wed in a royal ceremony May 19 at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor, Berkshire.
