Robson Green - Personal Life

Personal Life

Green was introduced to occupational therapist Alison Ogilvie by his then-close friend, television director Andrew Gunn. They married on 22 June 1991, but separated after eight years. He then met former model Vanya Seager while recording "Unchained Melody" at BMG Records; they later had a son, Taylor Robson (born 2000). The couple married in 2001 at Cliveden House in Buckinghamshire after a family celebration in Mauritius, making Green stepfather to Vanya's daughter Lara. On 30 October 2011, the couple issued a statement saying that their marriage had "irretrievably broken down" and that they were separating.

Robson is the uncle of fellow actor Daymon Britton, who appeared as youth club worker Dom in the long-running BBC kids drama, Byker Grove.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    “Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
    —Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    “The personal things should be left out of platforms at conventions .... You can argue yourself blue in the face, and you’re not going to change each other’s minds. It’s a waste of your time and my time.”
    —Barbara Bush (b. 1925)

    “Perhaps life is just that ... a dream and a fear.”
    —Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
