There's a ton of celebrity couples with huge age gaps in Hollywood.

Catherine Zeta-Jones shocked fans when she announced she was getting married to 56-year-old Michael Douglas when she was 31 - but 22 years and two kids later the couple are stronger than ever.

Meanwhile, Dr Who star David Tennant and actress Georgia Moffatt have a 14-year-old age gap, but they're the proud parents of five kids and happily married.

These May-December romances - as they're called - have faced their fair share of criticism, with some saying anything more than five years difference in age is awkward.

But as a whole host of celebrities have proved, age is just a number, so here's the lowdown on the couples who don't mind the gap.

"I'm in love," he said of his partner in a 2003 interview. "Romantic love is one of the most exciting and fulfilling kinds of love and I think there is a potential for it at any stage of your life. I was not surprised that I was able to fall in love, and I wasn't surprised that I did."
