Goodreads asked Andrea Lightfoot:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Andrea Lightfoot When I was younger, it would have been Mr and Mrs Twit, from Roald Dahl's book, the Twits. Not because they were a lovely couple - far from it. But the tricks they would play on each other were quite amusing to read about. Could you imagine it if there were couples like that in real life?

But, since I was introduced to Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, then it would have to be Jane and Mr Rochester. That is true love and dedication.
At first, when they marry, the service is brought to a sudden halt as someone bursts in and reveals that Mr Rochester is already married to someone who is still living, but after Jane returns to Mr Rochester's home, after having left for a while, a fire has decimated the building and left Mr Rochester blind, and his wife dead. (She jumped to her death).
What I liked about this was that after so long, Jane eventually agreed to marry him, and showed that his being blind could not get in the way of their love.
