PORTLAND – Actor Daniel Baldwin has been granted a restraining order against his wife and has filed for divorce, claiming she punched him, threatened him with a knife in front of their children and made threats of violence and death “too numerous to list”.

Baldwin (50) said his wife woke the couple’s children, aged one and three, at their Oregon home by screaming and throwing objects while drunk.

Joanne Baldwin was arrested last night for violating her parole on a drink-driving conviction. She is not expected to be released from jail until a hearing next Wednesday. – (AP)
