As per his 1st wife: The couple had three children, but the marriage broke down in 1991. Hawking’s progressive condition, his demands on Jane, and his refusal to discuss his illness, were destructive forces the relationship could not endure, she said. Jane wrote of him being “a child possessed of a massive and fractious ego,” and how husband and wife became “master” and “slave”.Where the hell are you getting this from?
I think you may have that arse about face.

So any evidence to back up the claim that he physically abused anyone?An ex-gf of mine was a hospital doctor in Cambridge and it was well known that he was a right shit to female care staff and nurses. A few of her colleagues whom I met corroborated this.
On the other side things, I know a few people who have worked at the Cambridge colleges and they have spoken about the 'rumours' that he suffered a fair bit of abuse from is second wife (a nurse, ironically).
None of this should detract from his achievements or his passing away, of course; just wanted to point out that what johnnytapia wasn't inaccurate.
