The two tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2007, which sounds pretty serious. Only ten weeks later, the couple separated and Anderson had the marriage annulled. Six years later, in 2014, they seemed to have fallen in love a second time. However, this time their marriage only lasted a few months and they divorced in 2015.

In America, he continued to compose and found success with works such as "Knickerbocker Holiday" and "Lady in the Dark."
Lenya and Weill had a complex relationship that spanned several decades. They first married in 1926, and their collaboration extended beyond marriage into the realms of music and theatre. The composer Weill and the singer-actress Lenya worked closely together on Weill's most famous work "The Threepenny Opera".

Answer: Diego Rivera
Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter known for her distinctive and symbolic surrealist style. Her art often explored themes of identity, gender, post-colonialism and the complexities of human experience. Kahlo's work, including iconic self-portraits, is celebrated for its vibrant colours, folk art influences and emotional intensity. Despite facing health problems, including lifelong injuries from a bus accident, Kahlo's artistic talent and resilience made her a prominent figure in the art world.
Diego Rivera was a Mexican painter and a leading member of the Mexican muralist movement. He played a key role in the artistic and political scene of his time. His murals and paintings often depicted social and political themes from Mexican history, culture and the struggles of the working class. Rivera's art combined traditional Mexican imagery with modernist influences, and his work is celebrated for its monumental scale and powerful storytelling.
Diego Rivera, 20 years her senior, and Kahlo were married from 1929 to 1939. They divorced, apparently because Rivera was constantly unfaithful. A year later, the two artists reconciled and said "I do" again. This time the marriage lasted until Kahlo's death in 1954.
