Being married for more than 3 decades is not everyone’s cup of tea. Moreover, if you are a renowned celebrity exposed to stardom, it’s quite tough to save a marriage for even a few years. But, Light and Desiderio have proved that when the love is true, nothing can go wrong.
Judith Light first met Robert Desiderio on the set of ABC’s daytime soap opera, ‘One Life to Live. They were co-stars back then. They began dating soon after that and later transformed their love affair into a beautiful marriage.
They tied the knot in January 1985 among family and friends.
