People connected to Anne Hathaway
William Shakespeare's wife, married him at 26 while he was just 18—a reversal of typical Elizabethan age gaps. She's mostly known through his shadow, with few historical records to call her own.
Anne Shakespeare, commonly known as Anne Hathaway and sometimes referred to as Agnes Hathaway, was the wife of William Shakespeare, the English poet, playwright and actor. They were married in 1582, when Hathaway was pregnant at 26 years old and Shakespeare was 18. Some writers, such as Samuel Schoenbaum, have assumed that she was rather old for an Elizabethan bride, but in fact it was normal for her contemporaries to marry in their 20s, although legally they could marry earlier. Shakespeare, on the other hand, was young for an Elizabethan bridegroom.
