Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz marked their 15th wedding anniversary with touching tributes to one another.
On Thursday (July 31), the power couple shared intimate, never-before-seen photos, while Swizz added an emotional voiceover to a montage capturing their life together. The two share two sons, Egypt, 14, and Genesis, 10.
“Wow, 15 years of love. Fifteen years of fun. Fifteen years of best friends. Fifteen years of beautiful kids,” Swizz said in the heartfelt message. “Fifteen years of traveling. Fifteen years of the white side. Fifteen years of growth. Fifteen years of love. Fifteen years of passion. Fifteen years of art.”
Swizz closed out the tribute by reminding Keys that their journey is only just getting started. “Fifteen years of wow, just wow,” he added. “Fifteen years feels like five. That’s crazy—when 15 years feels like five. Happy anniversary, my love. We’ve spent so much time having fun that 15 years feels like five. And we’re just starting.”
While Swizz Beatz praised his wife for being “ultra-amazing,” Alicia Keys also shared her own heartfelt tribute.
She posted a carousel of photos showing the couple celebrating at a party, accompanied by a sweet poem describing their love as “sublime” and “devoted.”
“15 years of magic!! And we’re just getting started ,” Keys wrote in the caption, perfectly summing up their enduring love story.
Over the years, the Deans have shared valuable insights on what keeps their marriage solid, with both Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz maintaining that they’ve never argued.
“Marriage is definitely a big word, but look at it like your best friend,” Swizz told Us Weekly in March. “The communication is there. We’ve never had an argument. Since we’ve been together, our kids [have] never seen it; never seen us raise our voice [or] never seen us yell. Never seen us curse at each other. Why? Because of communication.”
Before marrying Keys, Swizz was married to singer Mashonda, with whom he shares 18-year-old son Kasseem Dean Jr. He’s also father to son Prince, 24, and daughter Nicole, 17, from previous relationships.
