Hollywood couples can be mostly referred to as ‘power couples', but each couple has their own idea of what married life is. Couples can be either submissive or dominant. If a couple understands each other, they will live happily ever after, regardless of anything else. We have studied and found some couples who have a dominant wife or a husband. Generally, celeb wives dominate at home, but there are exceptional cases of a careerist woman who wants her husband to be the boss of the house and also direct their lives. There is nothing more pleasurable than when your man who cares for you can decide on your life, at least for those women. Other celebs feel differently.
Whatever it is, the ultimate motto is to have a peaceful life. There is usually only one person who has all the authority so that it does not create confusion. So, we have studied and found twenty couples where the husbands are the bosses and others where the wives dominate the scenario. It’s interesting to know that there are pros and cons of both sides. But how they manage and what is their formula to a peaceful life is interesting.
Couples definitely have their own way of navigating their lives, separately and together, but it is still interesting to see what it is that they do to have a healthy and happy home life.
