What happened between Barbra Streisand and Jon Peters?

One of the most epic romances of Barbra Streisand’s romantic history is the relationship she had with hairdresser-turned-movie producer Jon Peters. The two were together from 1973 until 1982—almost a decade!

The pair met when Peters, then a hairdresser, put the word out with friends that he was dying to do the actress’ hair—even for free. Meanwhile, Streisand found herself admiring a woman’s haircut at a party. It turns out the stylist was Peters. The two met and instantly fell in love.

Streisand is credited with giving Peters his career as a movie producer. She brought him on as a collaborator to her film projects, bringing him on as a fellow producer for projects like the 1976 remake A Star is Born. However, both Streisand and Peters had big personalities, which caused frequent clashes. Eventually, when Streisand was starting work on her directorial debut, Yentl, in 1982, she had to leave for Europe. Peters had been getting frustrated with her dedication to the project and felt neglected. The two decided to separate.

Even after their separation, the pair have remained lifelong friends. Streisand is even the godmother to two of Peters’ daughters that he shares with his ex-wife Christine Forsyth.

In the 1960s, Barbra Streisand apparently had a romance with football legend Joe Namath. During her marriage to Gould, in the late ‘60s Streisand reportedly had a scandalous affair with her Funny Girl costar Omar Sharif. She is also rumored to have had an affair with Kris Kristofferson on the set of A Star is Born during her relationship with Jon Peters in the ‘70s. After her separation from Gould, Streisand dated Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, the father of Justin Trudeau. She was briefly linked to her What’s Up, Doc? costar Ryan O’Neal after that.
