Crowe cutting back on his career to be with his kids

Gladiator star Russell Crowe has decided to cut back on his career commitments to spend more time with kids. The 48-year-old actor has spent a large part of 2012 on film sets, including the movie adaptation of hit musical Les Miserables, and the heavy workload has taken its toll on his personal life, with Crowe reportedly splitting from wife Danielle Spencer last month, reported Daily Star online.
