1975 – 1998Marriage to Beverley Cross -- until deathSmith marries playwright Beverley Cross on 23 June 1975, just weeks after her divorce from Stephens. They remain married until his death on 20 March 1998 -- a partnership of 23 years that provides the stability her first marriage lacked. When asked in 2013 if she is lonely, she replies, "it seems a bit pointless, going on one's own, and not having someone to share it with."
