Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith

The Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith story traces its roots back to the '70s when the actor met a 14-year-old Melanie Griffith, who happened to be the daughter of his co-star, Tippi Hedren. Remarkably, they began cohabiting when Griffith was just 15 years old, and they eventually became engaged when she turned 18. However, as might be expected from such a youthful union, their marriage didn't endure for a full year.

As the '80s rolled around, the "Working Girl" actress and the "Miami Vice" actor decided to give their relationship another shot. During this time, they had a daughter named Dakota Johnson, who would become a star in her own right with her role in "Fifty Shades of Grey." Although Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith have since moved on and remarried, their unique journey from a teenage romance to adult reconnection remains a captivating part of their shared history.
