Plato never married. In fact, he was believed to be gay.
There is no historical evidence that Plato had a wife. Plato focused on philosophy and did not mention a spouse in his writings.
Plato did not marry, in fact, he was believed to be gay, as was many of the Athenians of the time. Plato wrote about the superiority of love between two males, over love between a man and a woman.
who cares!># said richman6678 i care!! i need to know too so someone respond to this question!! He had 3 sons, Philippos, Araros, Nikostratos. [Don't know about the wife though sorry.]
There is no historical evidence to support the idea that Plato had an affair with Socrates. Plato was a student and admirer of Socrates, and their relationship was based on philosophical discussions and mentorship rather than a romantic or sexual relationship.
I dont think it is ether confirmed but I remember reading in a book Plato writing a poen to a Xanthippe. But, it does not state whether the Xanthippe is Socrates wife or not. I believe the book I saw it in was called 'Ribaldry of Greece' but the author escapes me.Unfortunately, this neither answers the question but it proves he was in love with a women called Xanthippe. Unfortunately, I do not know if Xanthippe was a popualr name in Ancient Athens or read any confirmation either way.Hope this helps.Steve Black

Platowasn't married. He was almost certainly gay (like many Atheniansof his day), since he wrote about the idea that love between men is superior to love between a man and a woman. Many Athenian men had both wives and male lovers, but Plato had no wife.You may be thinking of the wife of Socrates, who was Plato's great teacher. (In fact, the only reason Plato is known today is that he wrote down what Socrates said.) Xanthippewas Socrates' wife. According to one source, she was "well-known as a shrew."
