Russell Crowe has split with his wife, Danielle Spencer, after nine years of marriage, said The Daily Telegraph (Australia). Although the breakup was revealed only this week, friends admitted that Crowe and his singer-songwriter wife had been living apart for over a year. The Gladiator star’s hectic filming schedule has been blamed for the split, but Spencer was photographed during the summer embracing her co-star on Australia’s version of Dancing With the Stars. The couple has two sons, Charles, 8, and Tennyson, 6.
