Russell Crowe and Danielle Spencer split

It’s been reported that Oscar winning actor Russell Crowe and his wife of nine years, Danielle Spencer, have separated.

The couple shares two children – Charles and Tennyson – who will stay with their mother in Sydney amid reports the split has been amicable.

Crowe seems to be throwing himself into his work – he’s filmed a huge five movies this year alone – currently Crowe is filming the biblical blockbuster Noah. However some reports say, this overload of work had been a contributing factor to the breakdown of the marriage.

When Spencer was seen out and about earlier this year with her Dancing With the Stars partner, the early sign her marriage might be in trouble were showing. And while Spencer and Crowe tried their best to prove this wasn’t the case, it seems now that the nine year marriage has come to an end.
