It doesn't matter who someone is or the status he or she might hold. Cheating sucks, and breakups are hard -- even for the rich and famous. Sometimes, it may even feel worse because of tabloids and the media's ability to expose a celebrity's infidelity before that person's partner even knows about it. Just look at Meghan King Edmonds finding out about her husband being unfaithful while she was pregnant. She reportedly had no clue and found out when we did.
Yikes!
But some famous couples choose to work through the cheating scandals ... or deny them altogether.
Not everyone who cheats splits up or gets a divorce. Some people can endure these trying times, work behind the scenes to repair their marriage, and come through it on the other side. It has got to be tough as not everyone is able to do it, which is why we can't help but applaud those who try.
(Unless said lover or spouse is a serial cheater, of course.)
Here's a look at some celebrity couples who've remained together despite reports of unfaithfulness.
-
Kate Middleton & Prince William
1Splash NewsIn spring 2019, there were a lot of rumors that William had been cheating with Kate's close friend, Rose Hanbury. But the rumors have never been confirmed, and as far as public appearances go, it seems Will and Kate haven't let it faze them. Recently, a source close to the royals told Us Weekly that they've reevaluated their marriage because of the rumors, and they're working on becoming stronger than ever.

3Splash NewsThere have been so many rumors that Donald Trump has cheated on Melania that our heads are spinning -- most notably, the situation involving adult film star Stormy Daniels.

4Splash NewsSince even before J.Lo and A-Rod were engaged, there have been cheating rumors swirling around this couple.

"I know who he is, he knows who I am," she told radio show The Breakfast Club in April 2019. "We're just happy. We're not gonna let like other people come out and tell us what our relationship is. I know what our relationship is."

Jada Pinkett Smith & Will Smith
5Birdie Thompson/AdMediaThere have been all kinds of cheating rumors about these two. After all, they've been married for 21 years, so it's bound to happen. But during an episode of her Red Table Talk Facebook Watch show in June, Jada Pinkett Smith admitted that although physical infidelity hasn't happened, there have been "betrayals of the heart" in their marriage that they've had to move past.
One thing's for sure, despite what may have happened, Will and Jada are still together, and we're crossing our fingers that will never change.

Then, in November 2019, another cheating scandal hit when Justin was seen holding hands with Alisha Wainwright, his costar in Palmer, which he was filming at the time.
