How Old Is William Shatner's Wife

So, I was at this convention last weekend, you know the kind, where people dress up as their favorite sci-fi characters, and suddenly, William Shatner walks in. Now, I've seen him before, but this time, he was with his wife, Elizabeth. I mean, the man's been around since the dawn of time, so you'd think his wife would be, well, not quite as ancient, right?

Now, I'm not one to pry into people's personal lives, but when you're standing in a room full of people dressed as Klingons, you tend to lose your inhibitions. So, I did what any curious cat would do, I asked, "How old is the missus, Bill?"

Shatner, ever the charmer, chuckled and said, "Well, she's not as old as me, that's for sure. She was born in 1945, so she's a mere spring chicken compared to me."

Now, I know what you're thinking, "1945? That's the year World War II ended!" And you're right! But hold onto your phasers, because here's where it gets interesting. Elizabeth, or Liz as she likes to be called, was actually born on the very same day as the war ended in Europe - May 8, 1945. Isn't that something?

So, while William Shatner is a cool 90 years old (yes, you read that right), his wife is a sprightly 77. I know, I know, it's like finding out that the Enterprise is actually a hybrid car. But hey, love is love, and age is just a number, right?

Details on William Shatner's Wives — How Many Did He Have?

Now, you might be wondering, how did these two lovebirds meet? Well, it's a story almost as epic as the one about the Enterprise's five-year mission. Liz was working as a horse trainer when she met Shatner. Yes, you heard that right. The man who's commanded starships and battled Klingons was once smitten by a horse trainer. Isn't that just the most adorable thing you've ever heard?

And the best part? They've been married since 2004, which means they've been together for almost two decades. That's like, what, a hundred years in Hollywood time? So, the next time you see William Shatner on your screen, remember, he's not just the captain of the Enterprise, he's also a man who found love with a horse trainer who's younger than him. Now, that's a story worth telling.
