Although I respect him as an actor, I find myself less enthusiastic about his having married six times. I can appreciate and accept that sometimes a partnership doesn't work out or a partner dies, but he had at least 3 divorces (possibly a 4th and 5th, I can't be arsed to look it up) and that strikes me as being a little OTT.

Multiple marriages seem too common in the acting fraternity.

I imagine they have a lot of free time when they're "resting" and so quickly get annoyed by their partners' behaviour. I know my betterhalf drives me up the wall when I'm benched, so I try and force myself out of the house most days (which also annoys her !!!!) Plus the actors (well those who have fame/money) have the option of finding someone else without the fear of being homeless/losing old friends. I wonder if a lot of relationships stay together merely through fear of being left alone in a dingy bedsit.

He got married six times, because he could.

LOL. What was it Rod Stewart said? Something like "Next time I'll find a woman I don't like, give her a house and half my money and skip the unpleasantness.".
