US President, American actors Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Douglas and Bruce Willis and British rock star Mick Jagger all have one thing in common – much younger partners

Is age really just a number? The world’s media was in a frenzy last year when Indian actress Priyanka Chopra married American singer-songwriter Nick Jonas, who is 10 years her junior and also in 2005 when the then-42-year-old American actress Demi Moore and 27-year-old American actor Ashton Kutcher tied the knot.

The world knows American actor Leonardo DiCaprio has a type: beautiful, young, blonde models. His little black book is chock full of Victoria’s Secret and Sports Illustrated models, including Gisele Bundchen, Bar Refaeli, Anne V, Kat Torres, Toni Garrn and Juliette Perkins

More recently, it seems both the Kardashian clan and the family of Sofia Richie – daughter of singer Lionel Richie – are coming to terms with the 15-year age discrepancy between Richie and 36-year old television personality Scott Disick, who has three children with Kourtney Kardashian.

Yet these 10 to 15-year age-gaps seem nothing when compared with other A-list celebrity partnerships – some spanning different generations.
