Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus have been married for 27 years, and theyโre still going strong. So, whatโs the secret to their long-lasting marriage?

A High School Romance That Lasted
Snoop and Shanteโs love story began in high school. They met as teenagers at Long Beach Polytechnic High School in California. The couple went to prom together in 1989.

Still Keeping It Romantic
Even after nearly three decades, romance is still alive in the Broadus household. Shante and Snoop continue to surprise each other with thoughtful gifts and gestures.
