Meg Ryan took a break from acting to spend time with her children: This is her today.

She earned her acting debut in the film Top Gun, playing the wife of Nick “Goose” Bradshaw (played by Anthony Edwards). Meg and Anthony had a love relationship while filming that lasted for a while. Director Joe Dante said that Meg’s success in Armed and Dangerous with John Candy was a big reason why this role was crucial to her career. As the actress described, Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid’s relationship had an instantaneous feeling of connection “It was like a bolt of lightning… We’ll be there together.” But, after ten years, their marriage ended in divorce. There were rumors that Meg Ryan and her co-star Russell Crowe were dating before they broke up. Even so, she insisted that her husband’s affair happened before she started dating Crowe and caused her much pain. Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid were a fairytale pair when they first married. However, the marriage was annulled eight years later, and they parted ways. In an interview, Ryan discussed how her partner’s infidelity had affected her. When Ryan stated that Russell was not to blame for their breakup, Quaid countered her remarks with his own. He said it was “unbelievable” that she maintained rewriting their relationship publicly.
