25 Years Of Marriage With Danny Glover
As we said earlier, Asake Bomani is Danny Glover's ex-wife. In an interview with Independent, Glover recalled that special day when he was in college at that time and spotted her. He stood outside her English class and waited for her to approach Bomani being shy.
He also said that he was so much attracted to her, who was a jazz singer because of her strong sense of morality and high self-esteem. The two married each other in 1975.
Asake always supported her ex-husband. She also backed up her man when he had quit his evaluator job to join the Black Actors' Workshop of the American Conservatory Theatre in the 1970s.
But it was a shocker when Asake Bomani and Danny Glover decided to part ways after 25 years of marriage in 1999. Nevertheless, the exes have a good and friendly relationship with each other because they're still parents and grandparents.
Mother Of Daughter, Mandisa Glover
