Divorce and Marriage

Margaret Kelly is well known for being Bill Murray's ex-wife. When he opted to marry Margaret, the comedian and actor put her in the spotlight. Murray has a long and illustrious filmography that has been lauded and praised by critics and fans alike. Although Margaret and Bill have two children together, they divorced in 1994. Bill's career was on the decline at the time of the breakup. Because of the films he made in the 1980s, Bill became a huge societal figure. In Caddyshack, his performance as a stoner golf course maintenance employee remains one of his most memorable. Following a brief hiatus in the 1990s, Bill resurrected his career in the 2000s with increasingly serious roles. Bill's ability to perform in comedies was well known, but his success in true dramas was a great surprise.

When he starred in the indie film Lost in Translation, he received even more recognition. He won a Golden Globe for the role, as well as a Bafta Award for Best Actor. He was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. He was nominated for a Golden Globe for his work in HBO's Olive Kitteridge Miniseries, St Vincent, and Hyde Park on Hudson. He won the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2016, and his comedy became famous for its deadpan delivery.

While Bill was filming Stripes, Margaret married him. Although the picture was about a group of troopers, the tone was absurd and funny. The pair married in Las Vegas on Super Bowl Sunday in 1981. Bill is a huge sports lover, so it seemed natural to celebrate his big day on Super Bowl Sunday.

They remarried in Chicago in front of their families. They desired a second ceremony so that their families could have a real wedding celebration. Homer and Luke, their two children, were both born in 1985. Luke decided to follow in his father's footsteps and pursue a career in sports. Instead of becoming an actor like his father, Luke became an assistant basketball coach at Xavier University.

Margaret and Bill's marriage came to an end after 13 years when Bill became engaged to another woman. Bill had adulterous affairs with Jennifer Butler, which led to his divorce from Margaret in 1994. For Bill and Jennifer, it wasn't just a fling. After dating for a long time, the couple married in 1997. They had four children, two more than Bill and Margaret had with Margaret.
