Has Richard been married before?

Yup, according to his Channel Nine bio, Richard was married for 27 years, but left her “because the relationship had run its course and the spark was no longer there”.

More recently, he dated a woman 27 years younger than him, but they broke up because she wanted children and he didn’t.
