Robert De Niro splits from wife after 20-year marriage

Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro and his wife of more than 20 years have separated.

According to reports, De Niro, 75, and Grace Hightower, 63, have been living apart for a while now.

However, there has been no official comment on the matter and De Niro’s spokesman did not return a request for comment.

The Raging Bull actor and Hightower married in 1997 and have two children. It was De Niro’s second marriage.

“Sometimes things don’t work out the way you hope or want them to,” a source close to the family told People magazine.

De Niro, one of America’s most respected actors and winner of two Oscars, has tended to keep his family and his private life out of the spotlight.

He made headlines last month when he was among a slew of critics of US President Donald Trump who were sent crude pipe bombs in the mail. None of the devices exploded and a Florida man was arrested and is awaiting trial.
