Michael Caine And Shakira Baksh – 47 Years

Michael Caine is one of the oldest and most treasured names in Hollywood. He has been in the industry for more than six decades. In this time, he has been a part of more than a hundred films and has accumulated dozens of honors to his credit. Now, what could possibly be more amazing and magical than all this?

Caine’s story on how he met his now-wife, Shakira Baksh, is something out of the movies. The actor first saw her in a commercial and immediately fell in love. You don’t typically see someone in a commercial and devise a plan to go to Brazil to see them. So no, it was not just a simple crush. It took some time and a lot of effort but he finally got to meet her. Reportedly, she rejected his request a total of eight times! The rest is history after they’ve met. In 1973 they got married and they currently have one child.
