The duo was one fine couple flaunting elegant all-black looks. Nixon rocked a tailored tuxedo and a grey tie while his wife dazzled in a stylish bespoke with her honey-brown curls reaching down to her shoulders.

Many fans and celebrities filled the comment section with their heartfelt well-wishes. Stars like Mike Epps, Lena Waithe, Terri Vaughn, and Shonda Rhimes celebrated the duo.

Allen and her husband are one of those celebrity couples whose love life inspired young couples, and since their marriage in 1984, the lovebirds have not looked back.

Because of this, she secretly allowed her son to practice tap dancing and other genres.

The pair have three grown children, Vivian Nichole, Norman Jr., and Devaughn Nixon. Devaughn is Nixon's son from a previous relationship.

The couple's 36th anniversary was no less glamorous. Allen's post on Instagram was a throwback to their 2016 all-white party as they celebrated their love. The party was thrown during their 32nd anniversary.

While she and her husband have enjoyed marital bliss for over three decades, the couple does have their moments of disparity, sometimes in their parenting styles.

Allen, who is a dance pro and choreographer, noticed that their son, Norm Jr. loves dancing, and he was good at it. However, her spouse frowned at the dance skills.

Because of this, she secretly allowed her son to practice tap dancing and other genres until the day he performed at an event and was applauded. The star mom recalled that her husband was very proud of their son by then.

Outside her achievements as a choreographer who doubles as an award-winning actress, Allen, 71, is a television producer and director. She has been described as a filmmaker who gave opportunities to underrepresented creatives.
