HENRY WINKLER & STACEY WEITZMAN


Long separation and custody fights are common among Hollywood couples. However, a few couples in the profession demonstrate that celebrity marriages may survive a lifetime. One such couple is Henry Winkler and his wife, Stacey Weitzman. For decades, the man who played The Fonz or Fonzie on Happy Days has had the pleasure of enjoying his professional accomplishment with his wife by his side.

The couple first met in a Los Angeles clothes boutique. Weitzman captivated Winkler from the first moment they met – so much that he wanted to ask the woman out on a date. Little did he know, that date will mark the start of a new era in their lives. Weitzman and her 4-year-old kid moved in with the star within weeks. Their romance progressed quickly, but they didn’t marry for another two years. Weitzman stood by her husband and backed him up as he worked his degree up the industry ladder.
