He's such a sweetheart of a guy. Why after 14 years of marriage and 3 kids did he and Claudine divorce ? W5b4as it due to his touring that kept him away more for some years ? Who wanted the divorce ?

Andy Williams probably figured he get out while the getting was good and he didn't have any bullets in his body.
When a person kills someone (That was no accident) they've been in a relationship with you probably shouldn't be surprised that this type of person might be hard to get along with. She was said to be very high maintenance and an attention whore. -

I just came across this 1976 article/interview and it explains a lot. Here's some highlights and the link.
Andy in the interview speaking..
A year and a half later they were married. "It was very difficult to live together compatibly," Williams says. "Her interests were so different from mine. I was interested in the Establishment. She would be playing tennis with Peter Fonda, and I would be playing golf with Bing Crosby."
Claudine's career blossomed after she sang on the TV serial Run For Your Life. A subsequent recording, Claudine, sold 600,000 copies and brought her $50,000. With $40,000 of it, she bought a lot in Malibu. But by 1974 Claudine had moved to Aspen. "I don't know why we separated when we did," Williams reflects. "We probably shouldn't have gotten married to begin with. She was stifling me in a way. She's a very strong lady."
