Viola Davis and Julius Tennon
Davis shared a story about meeting her husband in Us Weekly that is almost too cute for words. “I was the loneliest woman in the world, and someone said, ‘You should just pray for a husband.’ I said I wanted a big black man from the South who looked like a football player, who already had children, who maybe had been married before. Three and a half weeks later, I met my husband.” He met all of her criteria, and the two got married in 2003.
