Brendan Fraser Back on the Market

Brendan Fraser and Wife Afton Smith, Pictures, Photos

I didn’t even realize he was married. I don’t really care.

Brendan and his wife, Afton Smith, are divorcing after nine years of marriage. The couple have three children, one of whom is named Holden, and seriously if this guy named his kid after the Catcher in the Rye dude I just lost all respect for him. What a phony.

“They continue to maintain a close and caring friendship,” the actor’s publicist said in a statement.

  • Haha, I get the “phony” reference now after reading the comments section. Man, that takes me back to sixth grade :)

  • Though I know you don’t care for truth here, only to make fun of people, Afton named the child Holden for the actor William Holden.

  • Hey no wonder. The fluffy lady probably dumped his Hair Club For Men-Needing behind.

    I met him a couple of times when he was filming as snooze of a film “Still Breathing” in San Antonio Texas and he was really quite full of himself for someone whose career and hairline were flagging.

    Another one bites the dust, hope the Fluffy Wife got a good pre-nup so she can take herself to the gym and upgrade.

  • Wow, I just saw him in Montreal before Christmas and they were together. He looked like an ass as he kept asking for a more private table while no one noticed him at all…

  • he ain’t that bad. I think he’s freakin sexy in the mummy movies so.. I see why they got divorced.. she looks like fiona from Shrek, except she has blonde hair!! and who is William Holden??

  • You’re missing the point. Your evidence that he is ugly shows only his face. He’s hot cuz he’s smart, got a rockin’ bod and goofy personality. Lethal combination for any thinking woman who likes her fantasy crushes to seem approachable. Not that he’d ever be attainable… but it does my heart good to know there are nice guys in the world who don’t take themselves so dang seriously.

    • I TOTALLY agree with Jill. Brendan is my all time fantasy crush! What’s not to like…smarts, character, charisma, sincerity and his piercing eyes. The hot body and choice of movies to act in are just the bonuses. Hog wash on you ladies for not seeing what is truly important in a genuine gentleman.

  • HELLO, AND TO ALL OF THE NEGATIVE PEOPLE HERE THERE IS ONE WORD FOR YOU:
    J-E-A-L-O-U-S!!!!!!
    BRENDAN HAS A BFA FROM CORNISH COLLEGE OF THE ARTS, IN SEATTLE. DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THAT DEGREE? A HELL OF A LOT, THAT’S WHAT! GO TO THE COLLEGE WEBSITE, AND SEE IF YOU COULD HAVE ACCOMPLISHED WHAT HE DID!
    FEW ACTORS HAVE DONE AS MUCH AT HIS AGE, AND HE LOVES HIS KIDS TO PIECES! HE DIDN’T BEAT UP HIS WOMAN, LIKE CHRIS BROWN DID HIS!!!
    SO, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE NASTY COMMENTS, DO IT ABOUT SOMEONE WHO COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD EXAMPLE TO MANY, BUT HE’S A MAJOR , MAJOR L-O-S-E-R !!!
    LEAVE BRENDAN ALONE–THE GUY IS TALENTED, AND NO WONDER HE WANTED A TABLE AWAY FROM PEOPLE–THERE’S ENOUGH VITRIOL IN THIS PLACE TO KILL ANYONE!
    CONTINUED LUCK AND SUCESS TO BRENDAN AND HIS LOVELY CHILDREN :-)

  • There has never been a hotter man than Fraser as either Encino Man or George of the Jungle. Women really get hot for that ‘neanderthal’ type, it is deep down inside them…let’s face it, he epitomizes the archetype of a sexy man. So he is getting older, big deal, I am sure the foundations are still perfect. Everyone takes a bad photo now and then, but no-one takes a great photo quite like Fraser – that can never be disputed. Who cares about personality when you have raw sex appeal.

  • I just hit 50; I’m a cougar and believe me……this man is hot! Brendan is about as gorgeous as they come, but I feel for the wife and kids It’s too bad the hollywood “bull” has managed to take yet ANOTHER casualty. Society has made it too easy to give up and not hold onto what used to be sacred. Hang in there Brendan, family is what it’s all about and you’d be throwing away something special. If you don’t, you will make yourself simply…….average and ordinary!!!!!!!

  • I love Brenda Fraser YUMMY! I think I even married my husband because he hold a resemblence to Brendan :)

  • I think Afton is as good and any other; why do you people talk bad about her.

    If he feel in love and married her and had kids with her it is because she is pretty much worth it and it is a shame they are not married anymore.

    He is one of the best; class, he is a gentleman.

    Some movies I do not like and I wish I could meet him at least once in my life.

    A divorce is pretty painful; I hope they get together again in the future.

    Good luck Brendan Fraser.
