William Shakespeare only had one wife. Her name was Anne Hathaway.
We know very little about Shakespeare's personal life, but we do know a little bit about this aspect.
Anne Hathaway was eight years older than Shakespeare. She was from a little village not far away from Stratford, where Shakespeare was from.
They married when she was 26 and he was 18. She was pregnant at the time of their marriage and gave birth to a daughter 6 months later. They would later have twins, making a total of three children that they had together.
She died in 1623, at age 67. Shakespeare had died seven years previously, when he was 52.
