London, Aug 6 (IANS) ‘The Lord of the Rings’ star Sean Bean is getting divorced for the fourth time.
The actor’s wife Georgina Sutcliffe submitted a petition to the High Court here, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ as the reason behind the end of their two-year marriage, reports contactmusic.com.
The couple have had a stormy relationship.
Their wedding was called off 24 hours before the event in January 2008 for ‘personal reasons’ but then went ahead weeks later.
In July 2009, the 51-year-old actor was briefly arrested after Georgina accused him of assault, before she asked police to drop the charges.
The actress later downplayed the incident saying: ‘Everything is OK. Sean and I are at home together enjoying the sunshine. He was arrested. Everything was blown out of proportion. Sean is fine and I’m fine. There’s no problem between us.’
In March this year, Bean denied divorce rumours saying: ‘Things are more settled. There will be no more divorce.’
