Melanie Griffith was just 14 when she started dating 22-year-old Don Johnson,
who had co-starred with her mother, Tippi Hedren, in the 1973 film “The Harrad
Experiment.” The couple wed in 1976, when Giffith was 19 and Johnson was 27 but
the marriage only lasted six months. More than a decade later, as Griffith (who
had married and divorced actor Steven Bauer in the early ‘80s) was going
through rehab, she and the “Miami Vice” actor reunited, married again in 1989
and had a daughter, Dakota, that same year. They divorced for a second time in
1996.
