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 and/or life:
“It has no share in the leadership of thought: it does not even reflect its current. It does not create beauty: it apes fashion. It does not produce personal skill: our actors and actresses, with the exception of a few persons with natural gifts and graces, mostly miscultivated or half-cultivated, are simply the middle-class section of the residuum.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“The genuine artist is never “true to life.” He sees what is real, but not as we are normally aware of it. We do not go storming through life like actors in a play. Art is never real life.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
