Jason Bateman and his wife, Amanda Anka, knew each other for a decade before they started dating - and they say their long friendship is one of the reasons their romance has lasted. The duo met in the mid-1980s when they were both just 18 years old, but they didn't start dating for another 10 years. Though they've since become one of the longest-lasting couples in Hollywood, they've still weathered their share of ups and downs. Bateman, who got his start as a child star, has been open about the fact that he struggled with alcohol and drug abuse when he was younger.
