Just yesterday, news came out that Pete Davidson has decidedly gotten the thumbs up from the Kardashian-Jenner family in regards to his relationship with Kim Kardashain. 

While their love is one that we never saw coming, not that it is here, we can't deny that their relationship is kind of goals. Actually, not even kind of. They ARE couple goals. 2022 has been another nonnegotiably strange year, but poeple's love lives are going great. Love is in the air, and these couples are here to prove it. 

Here are eight couples that are THRIVING and prove to the world that LOVE IS REAL!

As of today it was announced that Davidson has the approval of the Kardashian-Jenner contingent. He has met Kim's children.

Their powerful closeness and genuine happiness is the stuff that relationship goals are made of!

In the rom-com that is life, Kourtney Kardashian keeps surprising us with her plot twists! For years, many, including members of the family thought she and on-again-off-again partner Scott Disick were end game, but then, in a whirlwind romance, she found herself madly in love with Travis Barker. The two have been madly in love and absolutely inseparable. They ran off and had a surprise wedding in Las Vegas. This is the spontaneous, whirlwind romance that books are written about. This relationship is absolutely ICONIC. Like, Romeo and Juliet could never.

Speaking of ICONIC couples, Lori Harvey and Michael B. Jordan are the sweet-perfect-relationship dream goals of a LIFETIME. They have openly expressed they are the loves of each others life. They are both crushing it in their own field. They look breathtaking together at public events. However, they are private with their personal life. While we see glimpses of a sweet gift or a supportive Instagram comment, the two are truly finding pure joy with each other, helping each other become the best version they can be. This is a love where the people grow together, and that is one of the most powerful forces in the world.

6. Zendaya and Tom Holland

Zendaya and Tom Holland are the IT COUPLE right now. Spider-Man was destined to be with his MJ. They support and tease each other while together giving off the impression that they are entirely indestructible. Their support of each other exclusively makes the other stronger in the public light. Also, based both on paparazzi photos and their ENTIRE vibe, we know the two also spend casual time together, being two normal people, completely in love with each other. That is powerful.

7. Kirsten Bell and Dax Shepard

Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are the most down to earth celebrity couple on this planet. They are not very public online in regards to their family, but what the two do post is always incredibly cute and wholesome. They go on family vacations, they share their support of each other's work. They work together to create funny projects. Bell and Shepard genuinely enjoy their time together, and it's beautiful to see.

8. Beyonce and Jay-Z

Of course, no list could be complete without the time tested, golden couple of the world, Beyonce and Jay-Z. These two are one of the, if not THE, most successful famous couple. They have stayed together, through thick and thin, supporting each other through the good times and the bad. Is it any surprise that Beyonce has one of the best known relationships in the world?

While this year may be yet another in the whirlwind of the weird and unpredictable, it's wonderful to know that love is still real.
