Summary
- Rider Strong and wife Alexandra Barreto mark 12th wedding anniversary
- Couple shares photos of cozy beach getaways over the years
- Strong reminisces how their relationship has evolved since early days
On October 21, 2025, Boy Meets World and Girl Meets World actor Rider Strong, 45, took to Instagram to celebrate his 12th wedding anniversary with wife Alexandra Barreto, 50. In his touching tribute, Strong reminisced about how their relationship has changed since the early days of their marriage.
"When you're young and in love, you build a fire on the beach and wait for the stars," Strong wrote. "Twelve years later, you build the same fire -- and debate how many hot dogs your kid can eat." The couple shared two photos from their anniversary getaway, showcasing their cozy beach moments over the years.
The first image shows Strong and Barreto sitting closely on a patterned towel, bundled up against the chilly weather. The second photo captures Strong starting a fire as Barreto holds a package of hot dogs, just steps away from the crashing waves.
Strong and Barreto, who met on the set of the TV series Pepper Dennis, have been sharing their outdoor adventures around the world on social media. Their 2013 wedding celebration even had a camping theme, complete with a ropes course, games, and a talent show, where the wedding party slept in bunks at an Oregon campsite.
Despite the absence of some of Strong's former Boy Meets World co-stars at the wedding due to a scheduling conflict, the couple's 12-year marriage appears to be thriving, filled with cherished memories and a deep, evolving connection.
