Lee Majors has been a Hollywood staple since he first appeared in "The Six Million Dollar Man" from 1973 until 1978. While his Hollywood career thrived through the years, his personal life could have been more successful.
Lee has been married four times. His last marriage to his current wife, Faith, has been his most enduring relationship, with the couple's love standing the test of time throughout their years together.

Lee and Faith have often been spotted out together, like when they went for dinner in Hollywood. The couple shares a significant age gap, but it has not deterred them from remaining committed to one another.
Aside from being spotted publicly, Lee often posts photos of himself and his beautiful wife on Instagram. Most recently, he dazzled fans with a video of himself and his wife dancing in formal attire.
In the caption, Lee mentioned that he and his wife had attended a wedding where they took the video. He congratulated the couple and mentioned that he and his wife loved them. Fans loved the video and said as much in the comments section.

One fan mentioned how "stunning" the couple looked as they happily danced together. Another commenter complimented Lee's tuxedo, and another quipped:
"I was going to say you look like a million bucks… but you're already 6M man."
Lee and Faith first met when Lee saw Faith while he was having dinner at a friend's house. He noticed she was with another man, so Lee approached him and asked if his relationship with Faith was serious.

The man confirmed they were just friends, which led Lee to ask if he could get Faith's number. He then phoned her and asked her to go with him to the Superbowl. Faith suggested they get together before then to get to know one another.
When they went on their first date, Faith saw that Lee had a "heart of gold," and they had been together ever since that day. Soon after they met, they decided to leave Beverley Hills in favor of Houston, Texas.

Despite his other marriages quickly falling apart, Lee and Faith have kept their marriage going for longer than any of his previous ones and, indeed, longer than many marriages between celebrities. Talking about his marriage, Lee said:
"It is a record in Hollywood."

The couple was together for seven years before they tied the knot, but Lee knew he wanted to be with Faith for the rest of his life because she was lovely to him and to his children, who also loved her.
How Did Lee Support His Wife?
When asked if they instantly knew that they would be together for the rest of their lives, Faith confirmed that they did. The couple then shared that while they still had a residence in LA, they enjoyed spending time in Houston because they found it peaceful.

The couple has helped each other through many trials and tribulations, one of them being when Faith lost her sister and her mother within months of each other. Lee recalled waking up to the phone call about Faith's loved one passing away and having to tell her about it.
Lee called it the "worst night of [his] life" and rushed to get Faith back home so she could be with her family. Faith admitted that her mother and sister's deaths had shown her how precious life is.
Lee and Faith have remained steadfast in their love and support of one another. Lee even credited Faith as one of the things that helps lift his bad moods, along with See's chocolates. Faith credited Lee, shopping, and cupcakes with lifting her bad moods.
How Did Lee Reunite with His Ex-Wife, Farah Fawcett, Before Her Death?
While his marriage to Faith has been fantastic for him, Lee had a relationship long before he met Faith that was incredibly special to him. In fact, he likened himself and his ex-wife, Farah Fawcett, to the Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt of their generation.

Lee mentioned that he and Fawcett often had paparazzi and fans around them, and they couldn't go anywhere without people following them around. They had a tumultuous relationship, which ultimately did not last. However, their bond remained strong.
In 2009, just before Fawcett passed away, Lee phoned her, breaking their 20-year silence. Lee called Fawcett for her birthday in February before she passed away. The pair talked for 40 minutes about their lives and Fawcett's cancer diagnosis. A source close to Lee said:
'I think it was good given the current situation [for] closure. Otherwise, they never would've spoken again. I think he always wanted to talk to her again, but he was just afraid to speak to her before.'

Lee said that when he and Fawcett were at their prime as a couple, they didn't even know how popular their respective shows were because they were working so hard, yet fans saw them as real-life Ken and Barbie.
Before Fawcett's death and Lee and Fawcett's phone call on her birthday, Lee would phone her close friends to get updates on her health. He "still cared" about her as a friend and was concerned about her health.

There was much speculation that Lee was with Fawcett on the day she died, but he confirmed he was not. He held his own fond memories of her and said he didn't want to be a distraction. An admirable man indeed.
