Oscar-winner Russell Crowe and his wife of nine years, Danielle Spencer, have split, according to a report in the Sydney Morning Herald.

The actor has been super busy, filming back-to-back movies. He has seven films coming out in the next year: Man with the Iron Fist, Les Miserables, Broken City, Superman, Noah and his next project The Winter’s Tale, with Colin Farrell and Will Smith.
