The early 2000s saw the rise to fame of Djimon Hounsou and Kimora Lee Simmons, a gorgeous power couple known for their lucrative careers and chic lifestyle. Hounsou, well-known for his parts in blockbuster movies like "Amistad" and "Blood Diamond," got to meet Simmons, an American entrepreneur and model, during a party in Los Angeles in 2000. They made their public debut at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, and their instant connection turned into a high-profile romance.
Hounsou and Simmons were close in their early years, going to important events together and adorning magazine pages with their stylish appearances. In 2003, the couple joyfully welcomed their first child, a son called Kenzo, and expressed their love and happiness at becoming parents. The pair announced their engagement in 2005, but they had to deal with several wedding postponements before deciding to tie the knot in 2006.
