At 78 years old, Alice Cooper reflected on their journey together, stating, “Our 50 years together has proved to a cynical world that true love lasts and is very much alive.” Sheryl, who is 69, echoed his sentiments, humorously noting, “We have a concise definition of marriage, and it’s two dysfunctional people who refuse to give up on each other!” Their daughters, Calico (44) and Sonora (34), along with their son Dashiell (40), were present to celebrate this milestone.
The couple first met in 1975 when Sheryl auditioned for Alice’s “Welcome To My Nightmare” tour, and their love story took a significant turn when Alice proposed to her on stage during a Christmas show. They were married in Acapulco, Mexico, in 1976, and since then, they have been described as having the strongest marriage in rock ‘n’ roll.
William Goddard, Sheryl’s father, officiated the ceremony, adding a personal touch to the event. Alice shared that their first dance was to “This I Swear Is True” by The Skyliners, a song that holds special meaning for the couple. Their relationship has been characterized by mutual respect and support, with Alice stating, “People always say that marriage is hard work, but Sheryl and I have the easiest marriage you can imagine. We never argue. Sheryl and I believe in each other.”
As they celebrated their love, Alice and Sheryl Cooper’s story stands as a beacon of hope in a world where many relationships falter. Their marriage, noted as the longest in rock ‘n’ roll, showcases a partnership built on unwavering commitment and affection.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the future plans of the couple, but their legacy as a rock ‘n’ roll power couple continues to inspire fans and fellow musicians alike.
