Barbra Streisand and James Brolin, married for 25 years, recently shared a surprising secret about their romance. Their journey began with a blind date, where Streisand was taken aback by Brolin’s bald appearance. Despite this, her honesty endeared her to him, and they fell in love.
While Streisand took a few dates to realize her feelings, they eventually tied the knot in 1998. Both had previous marriages, with Streisand married to Elliot Gould and Brolin to casting agent Jane Agee and later to Jane Smithers, with children from their previous unions.
Brolin, deeply in love with Streisand, confessed to a celibate period before meeting her, a revelation that surprised interviewer Gayle King. His reluctance stemmed from past failed marriages, but meeting Streisand changed his perspective.
Their enduring love story, marked by honesty and commitment, continues to inspire.
