In reality, Joe’s love life is binding. Not only is he with the woman of his dreams, but the actor has been latched onto his high school love, Arlene, for about fifty years.

Consequently, the duo whipped up the most fairytale-like romance in Hollywood by sticking together through thick and thin and being supportive of each other, even though it entailed making sacrifices.

Their connection began as teenagers. The pair met in a drama club, where they were cast for a play. However, their relationship was not romantic until a few years later.
