Linda Hamilton Ex-Husband: Meet James Cameron

James Francis Cameron CC is a Canadian filmmaker and the ex-husband of American actress Linda Hamilton.  They began dating in 1991 and had a daughter in 1993. They got married in 1997.

Cameron and Hamilton divorced after two years of marriage, amid rumours of an affair between Cameron and actress Suzy Amis, with Hamilton receiving a $50 million settlement.

In an interview with The New York Times, she revealed that their breakup in 1999 left Hamilton “completely devastated for years.” “But I’m so glad to be free of that,” she said. “I would never, ever put that much energy again into something that is not working.”

She added that she and Ex-Husband James Cameron Were ‘Terribly Mismatched’  in “That relationship was a mystery to all of us even Jim and myself because we are terribly mismatched,” “I used to say we fit together like a puzzle: Everywhere he’s convex, I’m concave.”

James Cameron rose to prominence as the writer and director of The Terminator (1984), and went on to have success with Aliens (1986), The Abyss (1989), Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991), and the action comedy True Lies (1994).

He wrote and directed Titanic (1997), Avatar (2009), and its sequels, winning Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Film Editing for Titanic. Among other industry honours, the Library of Congress has chosen two of his films for preservation in the National Film Registry.
