Happy 30th Anniversary to LL Cool J and his wife Simone!

They met as teenagers in 1987 in New York City, and dated for eight years before tying the knot on Aug. 7, 1995

Simone says, “Marriage isn’t for the weak, it’s for the faithful. It takes work, love, listening, picking your battles, being a friend, a prayer warrior, a cheerleader, and a safe place.”
