Sam Elliott and Katharine Ross’s love story began on the illustrious set of “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” in 1969.

However, their initial encounter was devoid of conversation, and they went their separate ways without realizing the significant role they would play in each other’s lives.

It wasn’t until fate intervened, bringing them together on another film set, that they finally connected and discovered the profound bond that would shape their future.

Their professional collaboration soon blossomed into a deep and abiding love, transcending the boundaries of their on-screen roles.

Despite their different backgrounds and previous experiences, Elliott and Ross found solace and companionship in each other’s presence. In 1984, they took the momentous step of exchanging vows, uniting their lives in marriage.

For Elliott, it marked the beginning of a new chapter, while Ross embarked on a journey of love and commitment once again.

Together, they embarked on the adventure of parenthood, welcoming their daughter, Cleo Rose, into the world. As they navigated the ups and downs of life, their relationship stood as a beacon of strength and resilience.
