Samuel L. Jackson and La Tanya Richardson – 50 Years Together, $250 Million Net Worth
Believe it or not, legendary actor Samuel L. Jackson and wife LaTanya Richardson started as college sweethearts, first meeting while she attended Spelman University and he attended Morehouse University in 1970. Jackson has spoken how Richardson has always challenged him to be a better actor and a better human being.
“I’ve always had my wife LaTanya, who’s my harshest critic. She’d say, ‘You’re so intelligent that the first time you read something, you think you understand it intellectually and emotionally … But there’s no blood in it.'” It wasn’t until I got sober that I knew fully what she meant,” he continued. Once I was able to ignore that, and focus on the relationships with the people I was onstage with, I was finally able to blossom into whatever I might think I am now.”
