After Cornelia's death the very next year, he married Pompeia, whom he divorced six years later as a result of the scandal of the Bona Dea festivities that Pompeia presided over. The festivities were reserved exclusively for women, but in 62 BC a certain Clodius, disguised as a woman, entered the temple grounds to seduce Pompeii. Clodius was exposed and the affair that erupted over the insult to the goddess shocked all of Rome.
Two years after divorcing Pompeia, Caesar married Calpurnia, 24 years younger, who remained his wife until Caesar's tragic death.
