According to Wikipedia, she only dated Richard Hell, she didn't marry him.
That's the Patti Smythe entry. The Hell entry disagrees (or rather, validates me!):
Hell was married to Scandal's Patty Smyth for two years, 1985–86, and they have a daughter, Ruby. Hell married Sheelagh Bevan in 2002 and lives with her in the East Village, New York City.
That's like finding out that Aragorn used to be married to Xene Cervenka.
I loved The Warrior. Loved, Loved, Loved!

Nah. Viggo's an artsy type. That only got a slightly raised eyebrow and a "Really? Huh.", and mainly due to the age discrepancy (much like with Naveen and Barbara Hershey).
Is that more or less weird than Patti Smith dating a guy from Blue Öyster Cult, and co-writing a song for them?
This is closer to it in weirdness for me. But I'd still say Richard Hell/Patty Smythe is weirder.
Exene raises Viggo's cool factor.

She's only two years older than him (according to IMDB).
Actually, I don't think the BOC/Patti Smith connection is all that weird. A bunch of their early lyrics were written by Richard Meltzer, and their early albums have a distinctly smart-ass/poetic bent that's only a few shades of irony away from Patti Smith's early work.

I was momentarily confused that you were talking about Naveen and BH. I always forget that Viggo is as old as he is. Also, Exene has been on my cultural radar longer than Viggo.
I recently saw Witness again, and boy, does Viggo look like a baby there!

Viggo only got on my cultural radar as Exene's new man. Then he dropped off again for a very long time.
