James Cameron, an Oscar-winning director, believes that the fifth time is the charm.
James Cameron has contributed to several well-known films, including Aliens, The Abyss, and Avatar. But Titanic is perhaps his best and most well-known movie.
Along with numerous awards and praise for the film, he also won the heart of and married his true love. Suzy Amis, his fifth wife, is the one he is now married to. He has been married five times overall.
There was talk of an affair and Cameron cheating on his then-wife before the couple was married. Here is all the information we have on Cameron’s relationships, including those with his ex-wives and present spouse.
Suzy Amis, James Cameron’s wife
With his fourth wife, Linda Hamilton, Cameron did not get along well. Their brief relationship was marked by mistrust and paranoia.
The rumor that Cameron was having an affair with Amis was one of the primary causes. Amis reportedly worked as a model before transitioning to acting in the 1980s.
She had a role in Fandango, her first film, and went on to appear in The Usual Suspects and The Ballad of Little Jo. However, the Oscar-winning movie Titanic altered her life for the better because it was there that she met her husband.
She portrayed Lizzy Calvert, a descendant of the main character Rose Dawson Calvert. Although they did not date, Amis and Cameron were attracted to one another while the movie was being made.
The Guardian claims that it was due to Cameron’s stringent standards, which he adheres to. No matter the type of work, he has an ironclad rule that prohibits him from dating anyone while they are coworkers.
After the Titanic, Cameron wed Amis after divorcing his fourth wife. Amis had a son named Jasper while she was previously married to Sam Robards for over eight years, from 1986 to 1994.
The couple wed on June 4, 2000, and now have three children together: Claire, Quinn, and Elizabeth. They petitioned to become the long-term guardians of one of their daughter’s friends in 2019.
The friend’s parents had some health issues in addition to being financially unstable. Cameron and Amis intervened to take care of her as a result.
They now can accompany her on overseas trips after being granted the powers in 2020. They have the option of raising her abroad as well.
The couple has been together for two decades as of 2022, making it Cameron’s longest marriage.
Ex-Wives of James Cameron
Sharon Williams was Cameron’s first wife. They were wed from 1978 to 1984, however, they never had kids together.
The following year, in 1985, he married producer Gale, Anne Hurd. In the 1980s, the two worked together on a variety of projects.
Sadly, their marriage did not last, and they were eventually divorced. They split apart in 1989.
The director had a brief relationship with Hurd before he met Kathryn Bigelow. After getting married in 1989, the couple divorced in 1991.
He then began dating Linda Hamilton, who played Sarah Connor in The Terminator. Out of all his marriages, his one with Hamilton was the messiest.
For the first time, Cameron experienced a long-term relationship before becoming engaged. In 1993, he had a daughter with Hamilton, and five years later, the two got married.
But for the two, the marriage did not last. Additionally, it did not help that Cameron and Amis were allegedly having an affair.
They eventually divorced in 1997 as a result. He married Amis shortly after and they are still together.
