74-year-old TV personality and cooking show host Paula Deen and her 65-year-old husband Michael Groover have been married for 16 years, and the two recently celebrated their latest anniversary.

To mark the occasion, Paula took to her official social media to share an adorable snapshot of herself and Groover that pictures the husband and wife as they smile at the camera in a side-hug.

The photo, shared on March 6, 2021, on Paula’s Instagram, was presumably taken at their shared home in Savannah, Georgia, and it shows Paula dressed casually in a black, buttoned shirt over white pants, captioning the post:

16 YEARS TOGETHER

Paula married Groover in 2004, 15 years after divorcing her first husband Jimmy Deen, with whom she stayed in an unhappy marriage for 24 years, and this time she encountered true love, in an unexpected way.

The story started with Paula looking for her lost dogs in 2002, which caused her to meet her then-neighbor Groover, who immediately took a liking to her and went on to ask her on a date on his boat.

Groover worked as a tugboat captain until his retirement, meaning he spent a lot of time alone and only communicating by radio, which is a very different background from Paula, who is used to be in the spotlight.

Groover is also happy to be a great stepfather to Paula’s grown children Bobby and Jamie, known as the Deen Brothers, also TV-chefs and restaurateurs like their famous mother.
