Did William Shakespeare ever marry or have kids?

Answer 1

He sure did. He married Anne Hathaway, of Shottery, in 1582. The licence issued on November 27 of that year. William was 18 at the time. Their first child, their daughter Susanna, was born the following May. They had twins two years later, a boy called Hamnet and a girl called Judith after their neighbours, Hamnet and Judith Sadler.

Answer 2

William Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway in late November 1582. They had three children, Susannah, born in 1593 and the twins Hamnet and Judith who were baptised February 2, 1585.

But, there is a lot of debate over just who "William Shakespeare" was. Was he the man born in Stratford who is known to have been an actor and member of a theatre company, whose other members praised his writing, or was he a totally different person who for no particular reason decided to borrow the identity of a well-known London personality and continued to use it consistently for a period of twenty-five years (at least ten of them after becoming dead) without anyone suspecting?

Answer 3

Yes, he was married to Anne Hathaway (not that Anne Hathaway) and had three children, Susanna and the twins Hamnet and Judith.

Answer 4

yes...

At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway with whom he had three children: Susanna and twins, Hamnet and Judith.
