Name a more iconic duo than Miss Piggy and Kermit — I'll wait. But, just because this pair is well-known doesn't mean the road has been super smooth. In fact, with more ups and downs than many human celebrity couples, the road for these two has been rocky.
The specifics of the relationship can be hard to follow, but they do exist, so we've mapped it out for you.
1976: Miss Piggy and Kermit met.
The star couple debuted on the pilot of "The Muppet Show" in 1976. While the romance took a little while to develop in the show, in "The Muppet Movie" (1979) Miss Piggy reveals that for her, it was love at first sight.
1978: The Wedding sketch had Miss Piggy trying to trick Kermit into marrying her.
In episode 310 of "The Muppet Show," Miss Piggy organized a "sketch" where she and Kermit were to play bride and groom, only this wouldn't be a sketch. Piggy secretly hired a real minister and convinced Scooter to trick into Kermit signing a marriage license. Unfortunately, chaos broke out right before Kermie has the time to say “I do” and the two were forced to wait to exchange vows.
1979: An official engagement was announced.
When Kermit the Frog was hosting a 1979 episode of "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson," Miss Piggy used the spotlight to announce their engagement. Kermit, however, was displeased and this clearly didn't end up in a marriage any time soon.
