At this point, there are just too many fantastic happy couple selfies to keep track of.
Hargitay and Hermann aren't shy about documenting the super-sweet moments of their lives via adorable selfies.

Mariska Hargitay reflects on two decades of marriage
At this point, the 60-year-old is a shining example of what it means to have a successful, happy marriage. The couple married on August 28, 2004 and share three children: August, 18, Amaya 12, and Andrew, 11. In a 2019 interview with PEOPLE, Hargitay credited — of all things — patience for allowing her to find her person later in her life.
"I think we both knew, sort of, what we found," Hargitay said. "We sort of knew that we found the right one. I never thought it could be this good, and I never knew that I'd be reminded on the journey, that I'd marry the right one. That I waited and married the right one and it's better than I thought it was. Because sometimes you take a snapshot and you go, 'I can't believe this is my life.'"
During a January 2024 appearance on TODAY, Hargitay revealed that her relationship;. is a gift that has only gotten more enjoyable with time.
"I'm at a point in my life where it just keeps getting better with him," she explained. "Peter always says this beautiful quote about… breaking through marriage into marriage. And that is what I think we've lived because at this time in my life, I feel very different than I have for the last maybe 15 or 18 — and I feel [assured] up in our love."
