Recently, on an episode of the Great Company with Jamie Laing podcast, Canadian singer-songwriter Shania Twain opened up about her feelings towards her ex-husband Robert “Mutt” Lange. Let’s look deeper into who Robert “Mutt’” Lange is and his relationship with the Canadian singer.
Here’s everything you need to know about Shania Twain’s ex-husband Robert “Mutt” Lange.
Who is Shania Twain’s ex-husband?
Robert John “Mutt” Lange, a Zambian-born British record producer, is Shania Twain’s ex-husband.
Shania Twain tied the knot with record producer Robert Lange back in 1993 and the couple worked together on various tracks during their marriage. Robert is very well known for his contribution to rock music. He has also worked with legendary artists like AC/DC on their hit albums Highway to Hell and Back in Black. His work also includes the production and co-writing of Bryan Adams’ song “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You.”
How long did Shania Twain and Robert Lange’s relationship last before the divorce?
Shania Twain and Robert Lange’s marriage lasted 14 years before their divorce.
The couple married in 1993 after working together in the music industry for a while and remained so until their divorce in 2008. The divorce took place after Shania learned about his affair with her friend Marie-Anne Thiébaud. Later, in 2011, she married Marie-Anne’s ex-husband Frédéric Thiébaud. While speaking to PEOPLE at the American Heart Association’s annual Go Red For Women Red Dress Collection fashion show in 2020, she said, “I’m so grateful I found the faith and courage to love again — because the last thing you want to do when you’re crushed is love again,” while referring to her relationship with Frédéric Thiébaud.
Additionally, when asked how she deals with forgiveness in her life on the Great Company with Jamie Laing podcast, she mentioned “Forgiveness is in the family of letting go. But forgiveness, more specifically for me anyway, is not about forgetting necessarily. It’s about understanding the other person, and that might mean that they’re wrong … Maybe you believe forever that whatever they did was wrong.”
When referring to Robert “Mutt” Lange, she added, “Do I hate my ex-husband for making a mistake? No. It’s his mistake. Not my mistake. So sad for him that he made such a great mistake that he has to live with. And I don’t know what that is, but it’s not … That’s not my weight.”
