Actually, Oprah and Stedman are finally getting married around the holiday season later this year.

Mr. Big and Angela Winbush have also called it quits.

Another couple that has been together for a while is Brandy's parents, although I don't know if you'd consider them Hollywood.

I hope you don't mind me butting in...

Oprah and Stedman can't be common law married b/c you have to live together to eventually end up common law husband and wife. He lives in the D.C. area and she of course in Chicago. And it depends on what state you live in. Some states don't have common law marriage at all.

Well I believe Holly Robinson Peete and her husband have made the list.

Now taking off Eddie and Nicole.

Prince cannot count. They have not been together that long. And I don't think they've been together for 5 years at that.

In 1996, he married dancer Mayte Garcia. During this time he recorded Emancipation (1996), and New Power Soul (1998). They divorced in 1998 and while married; they had a son who died soon after birth of a rare bone disorder. In 1999, he released The Vault. Also that year, Prince reportedly tied the knot on New Year's Eve with Manuela Testolini, a 25-year-old Canadian from Toronto. In 2000, with the contract expired, the artist announced that he was changing his name back to Prince.

I loved Ruby Dee and Ossie Davis together. It was beautiful. Debbie Allen and her husband I think his name is Marcus Allen. Something like that.
But black love is so amazing and powerful all at the same time.

Sad now how Eddie Murphy and his wife Nicole are getting a divorce.
