Hillary and Bill Clinton have been in the public eye for decades now. We've watched as their hair, eyewear, and clothes have progressed throughout the '80s, '90s, and early 2000s. We've seen them through some great times and some, well, not-so-great times (cough).

When Bill and Hillary met at Yale in 1970, she was dating a different man: David Rupert. Hillary and Rupert dated for about three years after they met in the summer of 1968. Hillary was studying at Wellesley, and Rupert was a student at Georgetown. He claims the then-23-year-old broke up with him because he lacked ambition.
'I never stated a burning desire to be President of the United States,' Rupert told The Guardian. 'I believe that was a need for her in a partner.' While that may or may not be true, she could have just been infatuated with Bill.
Jeff Shields
Before Rupert, there was Jeff Shields. Hillary started dating the Harvard student her first year at Wellesley in 1965. They saw each other almost every weekend throughout her first few years of college, taking hiking trips to Cape Cod and Vermont and having long political discussions.
'The thing that I remember most were the conversations,' Shields told Vanity Fair. 'She would rather sit around and talk about current events or politics or ideas than to go bicycle riding or to a football game.' Shields was a lawyer in Chicago before becoming the Vermont Law School president and dean. He passed away in 2014.
