The conceit of Mickey and Minnie is that in 'real life' they are married, but, they are also movie/TV stars, and as such, are often portrayed as courting sweethearts.
I've always thought of Mickey & Minnie like Jack Benny and Mary Livingston, even years after the Jack Benny Program had been on television. They were just sort of... sweethearts. Or regular dates. Or something.
But nothing so blatant as being husband and wife. Because that would mean... you know.
