Robin Williams To Divorce Wife Of 19 Years
The Couple Met When She Was A Nanny For Williams And His First Wife
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) ―
After nearly 19 years of marriage, Robin and Marsha Garces Williams are getting divorced.
Garces Williams filed a petition for dissolution of marriage on March 21 in San Francisco Superior Court citing irreconcilable differences.
The two met when Garces Williams worked as a nanny for Williams' son Zachary, whom he had with his previous wife, Valerie Valardi. Robin and Garces Williams also have two children together, Zelda and Cody.
Williams' agent Mara Buxbaum confirmed that the couple is splitting,
but had no further comment. An attorney for his estranged wife would
not comment on the case.
Robin Williams, 56, won an Academy Award for his role in the film "Good Will Hunting." He also starred in the 1980s sitcom "Mork & Mindy," and has acted in a number of movies including "Dead Poets Society" and "Patch Adams."
