Behind the camera, Anderson’s private life has been spectacularly eventful and every bit as dramatic as her career. She met first husband Clyde Klotz in 1994 on the set of ‘The X Files’, where he was working as an assistant art director, and they were soon engaged after a whirlwind romance of only several weeks duration. Curiously, the couple were married by a Buddhist priest on the 17th hole of a golf course in Hawaii without the presence of any onlookers, although Anderson reportedly maintained that her parents were fine about not being invited! Sadly, despite the birth of their daughter Piper Maru in 1994, the marriage was short-lived, with Anderson and Klotz divorcing in 1997.
Anderson subsequently coupled up with Julian Ozanne, a documentary film-maker, and the two tied the knot in a suitably romantic manner in the village of Shella on Lamu, an island off the coast of Kenya. This marriage lasted only 16 months. Since moving back to England, however, Gillian seems to have enjoyed greater success in love with new boyfriend, businessman Mark Griffiths. Anderson gave birth to their first child, a son called Oscar, in 2006, and the couple expect their second child in 2008.
For many people, Gillian Anderson will always be most fondly remembered for her groundbreaking role as FBI Agent Dana Scully, and although she would be the first to agree that fate delivered her a winning hand with that role, she clearly has talent enough to extend far beyond TV’s favourite skeptic, and so we want to believe that the best is yet to come.
