Posted by Marriage is never easy and it becomes that much harder when you add fame, fortune and ultimately endless temptation into the picture. The marriages of T.I. and Tiny Harris as well as Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys have both come with their ups and downs. The respective couples have persevered for better and worse, however, and this week they each just reached the milestone of a decade of marriage.
In a post to her hubby on Saturday (August 1), Keys celebrated their love and happiness together.

Tip and Tiny welcomed their milestone on Friday (July 31), commemorated with a lengthy post from T.I. on Instagram. While telling his wife of ten years he’d rather struggle with her than “shine effortlessly” with anyone else, the Grand Hustle rapper broke down why their relationship works for them through thick and thin.

“Happy 10th anniversary to my homie, lover, everything‼️ @majorgirl WE MADE A DIME‼️” he began. “…We’re all just waking up everyday trying to figure this sh*t out‼️ How to fulfill ourselves while remaining committed? How to become tenacious about making your husband/wife happy without losing yourself? How to support their dreams without killing your own? The answer (for US at least) was finding ways to make their happiness…your happiness. Find pleasure in pleasing each other so we seldom have to focus on pleasing ourselves,” Tip continued. “I know you’ve endured some circumstantial unpleasantries on this ride & so have I… but struggles, flaws & all I wouldn’t trade our ride for the world‼️ Cause it produced the pain that brought US understanding (Alexa play Xscape) & with no struggle there’s no progress…To be honest…I’d rather struggle with you, than shine effortlessly with anyone else.”
View this post on InstagramHappy 10th anniversary to my homie,lover,everything‼️ @majorgirl WE MADE A DIME‼️ Our journey has been an adventurous one & our way may not work for everybody,but ??dem cause it works for US?‼️ We've seen so many couples…that we both thought had such perfect,exemplary relationships break up,fold & throw in the towel??♂️. Seen em come… watched em fail(unfortunately?)& learned that nobody has the blueprints to a perfect marriage nor do they have a gps to longevity. We're all just waking up everyday trying to figure this shit out‼️ How to fulfill ourselves while remaining committed? How to become tenacious about making your husband/wife happy without losing yourself? How to support their dreams without killing your own? The answer (for US at least) was finding ways to make their happiness…your happiness. Find pleasure in pleasing each other so we seldom have to focus on pleasing ourselves. I know you've endured some circumstantial unpleasantries on this ride & so have I… but struggles,flaws & all I wouldn't trade our ride for the world‼️ Cause it produced the pain that brought US understanding (Alexa play Xscape?) & with no struggle there's no progress… To be honest…I'd rather struggle with you,than shine effortlessly with anyone else. One thing I know, flaws and all,good or bad,rich or poor…. YOU for ME & ERRRBODY KNOW I AINT BUULLSHITTIN ABOUT YOU‼️ This is my lifetime investment,so anyone who ain't ready to DIE or KILL about ya may as well leave you alone and find something safe to do?. Anyhow… I said all that to say I love you… now even more than I did the day we said "I do" & will continue to do so until my time is UP(even after). Thank you for your patience & forgiveness. Thank you for allowing me the time & opportunity to evolve,grow,& mature into the man I am today. We got plenty more of these to celebrate so I can end this one here with… Here's to seizing the memories of today…For today is the best it's ever been,& the best is yet to come?‼️ I Love You With All There Is Inside Me Mrs.H??? Happy Dime Day Baby Love ? ?❤️????
And while she knew she didn’t write a caption “that would out do” her wordsmith husband, Tiny poured her heart out for Tip as well. Check out her post below.
