It's a CW match made in heaven; Hilarie Burton and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Otherwise known as Peyton on One Tree Hill and John Winchester from Supernatural, this couple were also introduced within the CW universe.

They first met a whole decade ago when they were introduced by now husband and wife Jensen Ackles, also from Supernatural and Danneel Harris from One Tree Hill.

Jeffrey talked about this fateful blind date to Huffpost Live in 2015, explaining that it was quite a drunken night for the group.

They Were Introduced On A Blind Date

He said of the double date, "I happened to be single and Jensen said, 'I've got a girl you should meet.' So I went to a bar and I met Hilarie at a bar with Jensen and Danneel, and the rest is history."

He continued, I (got a little too lit). We all did. We ended up back at my house drinking shots of tequila. But she was really cool and somehow I talked her into going to — I was on my way to do a movie called The Resident in New Mexico and she was on her way to Paris — and I talked her into, instead of going to Paris, to come and see me in New Mexico. And I ruined her life and now she's stuck with me."

We're guessing her life isn't exactly "ruined" by being married to the hunky actor.

They Welcomed A Son Not Long After Getting Together

The couple moved super quickly, and welcomed a baby boy named Augustus in 2010, just short time after they began dating.

A source told E! News, "She told friends about her pregnancy back in August (2009) after she had spent a lot of time with Jeffrey on location in New Mexico."

So, it appears choosing to go to New Mexico rather than Paris was just "meant to be," for the couple.

The couple sweetly spoke about their son to E! News in 2011, with Jeffrey saying, "He just said 'no' for the first time, which is f--ked up. In one week it's just like, 'No, no, no!'"

He continued, "But everything is a first. It's been spectacular... a lot of not sleeping, and then our one adult night we come here. This is our date. Can you believe it?"

They've Publicly Gushed About Each Other Many Times

This is a couple who has gushed about each other many times over the years, publicly showing their support constantly on social media.

In September 2019, the former One Tree Hill star spoke fondly about her husband after the season 10 premiere of The Walking Dead.

She posted to Instagram, "Per the usual, I’m so proud of this one. He kills himself to get back and forth from the farm in NY to set down in GA, and he put in some damn fun performances in between."

They Finally Got Married In 2019

Suddenly, the couple started referring to each other as husband and wife in 2014, which sent rumors flying like crazy, and many fans assumed they had married in secret.

Finally, in October 2019, the loved up couple announced on Instagram that they had finally married.

Hilarie wrote, "I just want to put it out there that WE GOT MARRIED! For real. We've lived as husband and wife for a decade. We've built a family, and a farm and found our community."

She continued, "For years, publications have reported that we got married in 2014 or 2015 and that I've been married and divorced before. All untrue. But WE knew our truth. So it felt silly to try and correct anything."

Clearly this couple had an exciting 2019 now that they're married, and it appears they will continue going strong for many years to come.
