Robert Smith has been making headlines for his collaboration with the Gen Z icon, Olivia Rodrigo. For the unversed, the Sour star will be releasing her third album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl in Love, on Friday, June 12, 2026, and to mark the occasion, she joined the Cure frontman, Robert, to perform her song, What’s Wrong With Me at the Primavera Sound.
For the unversed, the Cure broke out of the post-punk underground in the mid-’80s with The Head on the Door and their double-disc follow-up, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. However, it was 1989’s Disintegration that transformed the Cure into stadium headliners. However, did you know the album’s biggest single, Lovesong was inspired by someone who has been beside Robert through it all? Yes, we are talking about his now wife, Mary Poole. So, as Robert Smith makes headlines once again, let’s take a look at their love life.
