The love story of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson would be conversational today.
Melanie Griffith's life is like a movie. The actress was born into a family of movie stars since her mother was the talented actress and muse, Tippi Hedren, so her future was written. Especially since she spent her entire childhood and adolescence on the film set and making appearances as an actress and model.
It was so when she was only 14 years old, she met Don Johnson, a film partner of her mother, who at that time was of legal age and was 22 years old. According to rumors, the crush between them occurred in a matter of minutes, and nothing could prevent them from starting a controversial romance.
The most shocking thing was not the age difference or that Melanie Griffith was younger, but that after a few months, she left her mother's house and moved in with the actor. The truth is that at that time the theme of the years was not so frowned upon and Tippi Hedren has given her permission, she helped everything to happen more naturally.
Today things would be very different and there would be great debates about it. But the story between them continued, and when Melanie Griffith turned 18, she was able to get engaged to Don Johnson and get married shortly after. That fact was also quite controversial in her story.
The actress revealed that the night before her wedding her partner confessed that she was unfaithful to him with former Miss World Marjorie Wallace. She forgave him, so as not to cancel everything, but the pain was not easy to bear. That determined that that marriage lasted only six months and that it ended with a divorce.
From that moment on, Melanie Griffith was on her side and Don Johnson on his. They each started a family, and he became a father for the first time. The actress with Steven Bauer, and the actor with model Patti D'Arbanville.
But life would bring them back together. One night of depression, addiction, and grief over her recent divorce, Tippi Hedren's daughter called her ex-husband, and a friendship was born that saved her life. Over time everything turned back into love and a new opportunity.
Ten years after their first wedding, Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson bet on love again and married a second time. That same year they would become parents of their only daughter together, actress Dakota Johnson. Although the bond did not last long, and at the age of eight they broke up again, it was worth it to bring into the world a talented young woman who today shines on the big screen.
