Question: Actors Wayne Allwine and Russi Taylor quietly married in 1991. Why was it newsworthy?
Answer: They were the voice actors for Mickey and Minnie Mouse and met while doing the Disney cartoon, “Totally Minnie,” playing their roles as iconic husband-and-wife celebrity mice. They kept their romance quiet to keep the focus on their Disney characters, but remained happily married until Allwine’s death in 2009, after 32 years of voicing Mickey Mouse to his wife’s Minnie.
