George Lucas and Mellody Hobson

George Lucas, the visionary creator of iconic franchises like Star Wars and Indiana Jones, had already experienced the joys of parenthood with his three children. His first child was born during his previous marriage, while the other two were adopted as single parents. However, fate had more in store for George when he crossed paths with Mellody Hobson, an accomplished businesswoman, at a business conference in Aspen in 2006.

Mellody, the president of investment management firm Ariel Investments and chair of DreamWorks Animation, captured George's heart with her intelligence, drive, and charm. The connection between them grew stronger over time, ultimately leading to a significant milestone in their relationship. In 2015, George and Mellody exchanged vows in a memorable wedding ceremony held at Lucas's iconic Skywalker Ranch, which added a touch of magic and symbolism to their union.
