The television personality just chalked it up to them being "lucky in love." The "Blue Bloods" star and McCarthy celebrated their seventh anniversary on August 31, 2021, renewing their vows.

The former "The View" co-host and the actor initially tied the knot in August 2014. The founding member of New Kids on the Block met his future wife while playing a game of truth or dare years before.

Their marriage came after the pair had only been dating for a year, and both stars were previously married to other people. From September 1999 to 2005, McCarthy was married to actor John Asher.

With Asher, the television personality shares a son, Evan, 19. On the other hand, Wahlberg was married to Kimberly Fey from August 1999 to September 2010, and they had sons Elijah, 20, and Xavier, 28.

In an unrelated matter, according to TMZ, one of the wild card contestants on "The Masked Singer" once kissed McCarthy. The possible culprit could either be Brian Urlacher, Jim Carrey, or Chris Hardwick.
