  1. In 1995, Betty White received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame – and her star is right near the star of her late husband, Allen Ludden. There are many couples that both have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This led Betty to wonder – is there a difference in the age between the husband and wife when they get their Hollywood star? As a result, Betty took a random sample of heterosexual couples that both have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and recorded the age at which they received their star, given below.
