Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake & More Couples Who Broke Up and Got Back Together – E! Online

When they saw each other at the 2007 Golden Globes, their “love connection” was palpable, according to Jessica’s 7th Heaven costar Beverley Mitchell. “I was like, ‘OK, this is happening.'”

After several years together, however, they released a joint statement in March 2011 confirming their mututal decison “to part ways.”

But it was clear they still had feelings for each other. 

Soon enough, the pair reconciled and tied the knot in October 2012. They welcomed son Silas on April 8, 2015, and his brother Phineas in July 2020.

“We have similar values,” Jessica told Marie Claire in 2017. “We believe in loyalty, honesty. We like to have fun. We like a lot of the same things. Also, in the business, we’re all very career-oriented, and you have to be a little selfish. I understand that about my peers—about being focused and driven—and if you can find that and someone who shares the same values as you, it’s like, ‘Score!'”
