First time brides over age 40 come in all forms, from all backgrounds. And, we are in good company! Some famous Late Bloomer Brides include:
- Kate Walsh – Married for the first time at age 40. Always plays smart characters. Guess she wanted to wait to make a smart decision.
- Marcia Cross – Married for the first time at age 44. Clearly, this desperate housewife, was not desperate.
- Julianna Marguiles – Married for the first time at age 41. Her character spent years kissing George Clooney on ER. Enough said.
- Julia Child – Married for the first time at age 37. Okay, she was “only” 37. But, in 1948, that might have been 40.
- Lisa Loeb – Married for the first time at age 41. And, they’re havin’ a baby!
Who else joins us? Any additions?

Sandra Bullock married Jesse James at age 41! (Hi Suzanne, I’m a friend of Amber’s and her post yesterday led me to your blog; I got married for the first time at 38 this past summer, and in the Indian culture, that’s like being 50! LOVE your blog!)
Welcome, welcome! I am so delighted you found your way to the LBB blog. Congrats on getting married recently. I look forward to hearing your discoveries, too (whatever you’d like to share). We LBBs need to stick together.
And, yes, how could I have left Sandra Bullock — such a cool chick — off the list?
Thanks for reminding!
Beatrix Potter married at 47!
Oh, good one, Barbara!
Ooo, I forgot about Sleeping Beauty. Good one, Laurie!
