Some deliberately choose not to tie the knot while others simply haven’t met the right person. Here is our list of 19 celebrities you’d be surprised to learn have never married!

Benicio del Toro – who is 46-years-old – has never married nor does he plan to in the future.

Just so I can get divorced?’”

11. Leonardo DiCaprio
Leonardo DiCaprio – who will be turning 40 this year – does not seem like the type to settle down.

Considering that he was caught soliciting a prostitute while he was dating Elizabeth Hurley, it really shouldn’t be that surprising that 53-year-old Hugh Grant has never gotten married.
