Actor Robin Williams has three children. From his first marriage to Valerie Velardi, he has one child, Zachary Pym (born 1983).

From his second marriage to Marsha Garces, he has two children, Zelda Rae (born 1989) and Cody Alan (born 1991).

In October this year, Williams got married for the third time. His new wife is graphic designer Susan Schneider.

He is quoted in People magazine saying:

“I stopped drinking when I had children because I wanted to be awake and aware. I did not want to miss anything that they (did or said). You are pretty much on drugs anyway when you have a kid. You are awake. You are covered in sh*t. But it’s okay, you know? If I had a choice to erase from my life something, I would leave all the memories of my children … even the memories when they misbehave because it is still extraordinary.”
