Shakespeare's Early Adulthood

At the age of 18 he married a 26 year old pregnant orphan named Anne Hathaway. The Hathaway's might have been friends of the Shakespeare's, but there is not a lot of evidence to support this claim. By that time both of them were the oldest in the family. There was a rumor that he married two people named anne. This ended up going all the way to court but there was no proff that he was married twice. After that, Anne and William had thier first baby arrived on May 26th, 1583. They named her Susanna. Then two years later they had the twins, Hamnet and Judith. Hamnet died in 1596 when he was 11. This caused Shakespeare to write his play "King John". He was deeply in loss after this. Then the second case of the "Lost Years" occurred. Except when he became known again he was a new man.
