71-Year-Old Dennis Quaid Celebrates 'Paradise' with Younger Wife Laura
Dennis Quaid's Paradise Found: Actor Gushes Over 39-Year-Younger Wife Laura Savoie, Defying Divorce Odds
Seventy-one-year-old Hollywood hunk Dennis Quaid has found his happily ever after with his stunning fourth wife, Laura Savoie - a whopping 39 years his junior. The Emmy-nominated actor is beaming with joy, declaring that "every day is paradise" being with the blonde beauty he married just one year ago.
The unlikely couple met at a business event in 2019 and exchanged vows shortly after. Quaid's friends and family are thrilled to see the Texan-born star so smitten, especially given his history of high-profile divorces. But it seems like this union is the real deal - Savoie has already earned a spot as founding partner of Quaid's production company, Bonniedale Films, in 2021.
In an exclusive interview with TheScholarlyNote.com, Quaid gushed about his relationship with Savoie, saying: "It's the closest relationship I've ever had with anybody. Every day is paradise. What can I tell you? I don't know why God had waited so long to bring her into my life, or I walked into hers."
Savoie, a St. Louis native, boasts two Master's degrees from Texas McCombs School of Business and the University of Notre Dame - quite the impressive résumé! When asked about their significant age gap, Quaid chuckled, "I didn't go out looking for an age gap or someone really younger than me. I met her at a business event and then the relationship developed."
This marks the third time Quaid has married a woman significantly younger than him - his previous wives were all in their 30s when they tied the knot with the actor. But it seems like Savoie is the one who's finally won his heart.
As Quaid approaches the milestone birthday of 72, he's also celebrating another significant event: the 18th birthdays of his fraternal twins Zoe and Thomas next month, which will mark the end of his $13,750/month child support payments to ex-wife Kimberly Buffington. The two-time Independent Spirit Award winner and the 53-year-old real estate broker ended their 11-year marriage in 2018.
Quaid's history is filled with high-profile romances - including a nine-year marriage to Meg Ryan, which ended in 2000 amid cheating rumors on both sides. He confessed to being jealous of Ryan's Hollywood success during their relationship, saying: "When I met Meg, I was here as far as career thing and she was here and then [eclipsed my own career]."
Quaid has also been open about his struggles with addiction and personal growth. As he navigates this new chapter in his life, fans are rooting for him to find happiness with Savoie.
On the work front, Quaid will soon be seen in Paramount+'s canceled crime drama Happy Face, as well as Universal Studios' DVD release of Sovereign, where he plays Chief John Bouchart. Other upcoming projects include Lionsgate's I Can Only Imagine 2, Netflix sci-fi flick War Machine, Babak Najafi's action thriller The Florist, and Nathan Smith's animated fantasy Saurus City.
With his love life and career thriving, Dennis Quaid is undoubtedly living his best life - and it seems like Laura Savoie is the one who's brought him the most joy.
