1/2 + 7 Couples Blog

Michael C. Hall and Vanessa Abrue

posted Aug 22, 2011, 2:27 AM by Mark OneHalfPlusSeven   [ updated Aug 22, 2011, 2:39 AM ]



It's being reported that Michael C. Hall's new girlfriend Vanessa Abrue is 25. We don't know exactly how old she is so we went ahead and assumed she was actually 25.9. Even with a little fudging, the Dexter star still ends up violating the half-your-age-plus-seven rule.




Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones at one point were the shining examples of violating the half-your-age-plus-seven rule. But what about now? See how they fair more than a decade after their wedding.

Donald and Melania Trump

posted May 17, 2011, 2:09 AM by Mark OneHalfPlusSeven   [ updated May 17, 2011, 2:24 AM ]



The Donald clearly violated the "half your age plus seven" rule when he married Melania Knauss-Trump in early 2005. Now, however, he just barely clears the line. Would their age difference would be targetted should he decide to go into politics?

Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey

This is the second cougar we've looked at here at OneHalfPlusSeven.com. Unlike Demi however, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon were not in violation of the "half your age plus seven" rule when they were married in 2008. 

We wish them the best.

David Hasselhoff and Hayley Roberts

posted Apr 19, 2011, 2:08 AM by Mark OneHalfPlusSeven   [ updated Apr 19, 2011, 2:16 AM ]



According to UK newspaper Daily Express, David Hasselhoff's daughters at one point said he had to date someone at least 40. Meanwhile, his current girlfriend Hayley Roberts is 31. 

According the the "half your age plus seven" rule, the daughters are conservative while Hasselhoff is a bit more extreme.

Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried

Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried crossed into the green side of the "half your age plus seven" rule several weeks ago. 

Is it merely an amazing coincidence that they have recently become publicly affectionate? 

Probably.

Beyonce and Jay Z

posted Apr 4, 2011, 2:42 AM by Mark OneHalfPlusSeven   [ updated Apr 4, 2011, 2:56 AM ]



Rumor has it that Jay Z and Beyonce Knowles began dating around the time they recorded '03 Bonnie & Clyde, so we used the track's release date to be safe. As you can see from the chart, this power couple was in violation of the "half your age plus seven" rule for most of their relationship. In fact, they were in the red as late as their marriage in 2008.

This is as good a post as any to mention that OneHalfPlusSeven.com does not round age. We calculate (to the day) when one person is exactly half the other's age plus 7.0 years.

Here is a graph of the "half your age plus seven" rule with Bree Olson along with two of Charlie Sheen's ex-wives. The trend speaks for itself.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

posted Mar 14, 2011, 2:26 AM by Mark OneHalfPlusSeven   [ updated Mar 30, 2011, 2:31 AM ]



Brad Pitt was more than a decade older than Angelina Jolie when they began dating. There was little mention of the age difference at the time. According the the half-your-age-plus-seven rule, it would have been inappropriate had Angelina been a little more than two years younger than she was.
