Talk about a love that was meant to be. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell first met in 1966 on the set of "The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band," but the "Tombstone" actor wasn't even legal. Fast forward 17 years, and the two reconnected while filming "Swing Shift" and have been together since.

Hawn later shared on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" in 2017 that rewatching the hit comedy with her longtime partner brought all the feels.
