She married an 18-year-old playwright when she was 26 and pregnant, then outlived him by seven years — and nearly everything else about Anne Hathaway comes down to guesswork and gaps in the record.
Biography
About
Anne Hathaway was born in 1556, sometimes called Agnes in her father's will. In 1582, pregnant and 26, she married William Shakespeare, then just 18 — young even by Elizabethan standards, though her age was typical for brides of the time. Beyond a handful of documentary mentions, almost nothing concrete survives about her personality or the nature of their marriage. Shakespeare died in 1616; she followed in 1623. What remains is an outline that historians and novelists have spent centuries trying to fill, projecting onto the silences what the documents refuse to say.
