The celebrity couple was spotted enjoying a beach day in the Caribbean on Saturday, Dec. 27, just a few months after their 16th wedding anniversary, as seen in photos obtained by Page Six.
Wahlberg, 54, had his muscles on display as he walked along the beach in Barbados and waded through the water in black swim trunks and sunglasses. Durham, 47, was right beside him in a stylish, high-cut green swimsuit.
They each accessorized with cross necklaces and chunky watches, along with other jewelry.

Durham, meanwhile, posted a black-and-white photo of herself and Wahlberg sitting beside each other on a boat as the actor sat behind the wheel.
“Happy Anniversary Baby❣️💜 24 years in and 16 years married. 💍 💃🏼✨⛪️🎚️💎🔗💘 𝓛𝓸𝓿𝓮 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓲𝓷𝓯𝓲𝓷𝓲𝓽𝔂 🙌🙏,” she wrote, tagging her husband.
Back in October, the actor exclusively told PEOPLE about his family’s playfulness while promoting his movie Play Dirty. “My kids love making fun of me,” Wahlberg said, when asked about what never fails to make him laugh.
“They imitate me, give me crap,” the Massachusetts native continued. “They’ll do the Boston accent.”
Wahlberg enjoyed a night out with the entire family on Sept. 24, when they all attended the premiere of his movie. “It’s hard to get them all together these days,” admitted the Oscar-nominated actor, who added that he scored some “cool dad” points from daughter Ella.
“My daughter brought a bunch of her friends from Clemson [University] to the premiere,” he said. “We were able to score some points here and there.”
