Most people recognize Jim Parsons as Sheldon, the hilariously annoying genius - and total nerd - from the American sitcom, The Big Bang Theory. However, most people don't recognize his long-time partner: Todd Spiewak.

Jim's hubby, Todd, works behind the camera - he is a producer. However, Todd and Jim have been together for so long that some fans do recognize the producer, simply because he's often pictured with Jim Parsons.

Jim and Todd make for a beautiful pair, and are "couple goals" for sure! In this article, we take a look at interesting facts about their relationship.

8 They Sold Their Hollywood Mansion In 2018

The Hidden Figures actor decided to sell his Hollywood Hills mansion for $8.95 million. Jim has decided to spend more time in his Manhattan complex, along with his husband, of course. However, as he's a proud Texan from Houston, we can't help but wonder if Jim will ever end up going back to his Lone Star State roots?

7 They Are Four Years Apart

Of course, age doesn't really matter in a relationship, especially one that has been going so well for so long. That being said, it is interesting to note that Jim is 47, while Todd is 43-years-old.
