Best Answer

Sort of. He was talked into "marrying" Cleopatra, but some scholars think this was symbolic of their political alliance, since Antony already had a Roman wife, who was Octavian's sister. Antony also knew Roman law and knew his Egyptian "marriage" would not be recognized in Rome because Cleopatra was a foreigner. It wasn't until six years after his "marriage" to Cleopatra, that he divorced his Roman wife, and that was when the break with Octavian was almost certain.
