A representative for the Downton Abbey alum confirmed to The Sun on Sunday that the actor and his wife Lulu had split. The spokesperson said, "I can confirm that Hugh Bonneville and Lulu Williams have separated." Rumours surrounding Hugh and Lulu's apparent separation first arose after Hugh attended Michelle Dockery's wedding to Jasper Waller-Bridge on 23 September without a date or his own ring. Lulu, 55, and Hugh, 59, met as children, then fell out of touch and reconnected as adults. They married in November 1998 and share one child together: 20-year-old Felix.
