TOP 20 Oddest Couples in History

Throughout history many names became linked together to the point that one is seldom heard without the other. Lewis and Clark for example, forever joined as if they were one entity, in reality lived totally separate lives beyond the Voyage of Discovery which bears their name. Celebrities have been linked together as well, writers, performers, critics, and couples, though their relationships were viewed, or in some cases came to be viewed, as somewhat odd, either in their time or due to its inexorable passage. The first president/vice-presidential team in American history – Washington and Adams – were viewed as an odd combination in their day, for example; a New England Yankee, short, rotund, well-versed in political discourse and dispute, and a tall, elegant, Virginia gentleman and war hero, well-above the political fray.

Not all of history’s odd couples were involved in personal relationships, yet they are linked to each other by their shared history. Some were of course linked personally, others politically, and still others professionally, as performers, inventors, relatives, or simply as fodder for editors and gossip columnists. At one time they were all well known for their interactions with each other, some more so than others. History shows their relationships to have been, well, somewhat different, notably so at the time and since. Here are some of history’s odd couples, from different walks of life.
