Oscar winner Robin Williams' second wife filed for divorce on Friday at a
court in San Francisco after 19 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable
differences, media reported today.
Williams' representative, Mara Buxbaum, confirmed the divorce case but had no
further comment.
An attorney for his estranged wife, Marsha Garces Williams, would not comment
on the case.
Williams, 56, and Garces, 51, met when Garces worked as a nanny for Williams'
son Zachary from his previous marriage to Valerie Valardi.
The couple have two children, an 18-year-old daughter and a 16-year-old son.
Williams won a best supporting actor Oscar for his role in the film "Good
Will Hunting." He has been nominated for an Oscar for three other movies: "Good
Morning Vietnam," "The Fisher King," and "Dead Poets Society."
Garces has worked as a producer on several of Williams films including "Jakob
the Liar," "Patch Adams," and "Mrs. Doubtfire."
