LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A celebrity couple is currently celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary with a special dinner date, proving that age is irrelevant in marriage and love. Anthony LaPaglia and his young wife Alexandra Henkel, who is nearly half his age, enjoyed their fifth wedding anniversary with a romantic dinner on Tuesday, May 9.

The romantic couple embraced at the opulent Italian restaurant Osteria Mozza in Los Angeles. The German actress, 33, looked lovely in a blue, fruit-themed sundress and shared photos of their date night on Instagram. "Five years married, baby!" she captioned the photographs, which showed her and the 64-year-old 'Without A Trace' star seated across from one other at a restaurant.

They sat down for a few drinks before Anthony LaPaglia ordered a pasta meal, which he was seen gleefully devouring. Later, the pair cuddled in the car on the way home, with Henkel flaunting her massive diamond engagement and wedding rings.

How did the couple meet?



 

'The Frasier' star married Henkel in a small wedding in Hawaii, a year after the couple got engaged. LaPaglia made his relationship with his new flame, Henkel, public at the Los Angeles premiere of 'Mad Max: Fury Road' in May 2015. They declared their engagement two years later. He married Henkel in April 2018, but the couple didn't make their wedding photos public until July of that year. The young bride announced the news on social media at the time, writing: "28.4.2018. 'The day I married my life's love." AmoMama reported.

'How has it been 5 years already?'

Fans are smitten by the adorable and romantic images, and many have swamped the comment area with heartfelt words. A user commented, "Congrats to you two @alex.henks." The second one wrote,"Omg what?! 😍 How has it been 5 years already?! Congratulations guys!! Looking beautiful both of you xxxx." "Happy Anniversary gorgeous couple ❤️❤️someone wished. Another noted, "Yes!!! Happy happy. You both look amaaaaazing!! 💝💝" Calling the couple "love birds", a user wrote, "Happy anniversary you two lovebirds❤️Congrats👏Love you both….you look stunning." A fan was impressed with the hair and said, "Congrats! And so beautiful, love that hair." "Gorgeous! Happy anniversary 😍 please. THAT dress! And THAT restaurant!" said another. One user noted, "Ageless."

Who are LaPaglia's children?

Reports say LaPaglia was previously married to Australian actress Gia Carides from 1998 to 2016. The former couple also has a daughter together named, Bridget who was born in 2003. His first marriage was to Cherie Michan. He has adored Bridget since she was born, and her arrival compelled him to take on "tremendous responsibility." On LaPaglia's social media timeline, the 20-year-old commonly features in nostalgia and praise posts. She also travels with her father on occasion. In one post, he wrote, "ack when I could actually be in charge .....that’s my delusional memory. She always ruled ❤️"
