Atheist Author and Speaker Richard Dawkins Announces Divorce from Wife

I believe one of the articles I saw said this is his second or third divorce.

• Prof Richard Dawkins and actress wife Lalla Ward married in 1992
• They met at a party hosted by author and mutual friend Douglas Adams
• Couple said they have ‘separated amicably’ and remain good friends
• They are understood to still be living in their marital home in Oxford 

• The UK’s highest profile atheist Richard Dawkins and his actress wife Lalla Ward have confirmed they have separated after 24 years of marriage.

• Professor Dawkins, who suffered a minor stroke earlier this year, and the 65-year-old former Dr Who star said their split was ‘amicable’.

  The pair, who were unable to have children, are understood to be still living at their £3million home in Oxford, where Miss Ward has illustrated some of her husband’s work – and ‘remain friends’.

• …Six months later they married, despite the twice-previously divorced Dawkins claiming he was ‘not looking to marry again’.
