He loved wine & women

Mark Antony's personal life is not well documented, however most accounts concur that he was a womanizer and wine enthusiast. He is portrayed as a sex addict with alcoholism tendencies who was prone to violent rages in the HBO series Rome. Plutarch claims that Antony had a borderline alcoholic desire for drink. The majority of the reports of the commander engaging in womanizing originate from Plutarch, who typically brings it up in the context of his drinking, even if other writings seem to show that he did indeed love his wine a bit too much.

The concept that Mark Antony went "all in" with Cleopatra may be the fundamental factor in why we link him with womanizing conduct. The fact is that he probably had the Egyptian queen as a friend mostly for financial advantage. By implying that he jeopardized his reputation and life to engage in sexual activity with a "foreigner," it is simple to present him in an unfavorable light. In truth, Cleopatra was among the richest individuals on earth, thus it made sense for him to spend time with her in order to gather the military resources he would need to confront Octavian.

Even Plutarch remarked on Mark Antony's striking good looks, saying that he had a "bold and manly aspect, which is found in the sculptures and pictures of Hercules." He was therefore frequently surrounded by attractive women, suggesting that he may not have initially been captivated by Cleopatra's purported beauty (His actions at Actium suggest he had long since fallen hopelessly in love with Cleopatra). By the way, we don't know what Antony looked like! Octavian made sure that no busts associated with the commander are entirely attributable to him, and he made sure that there are no clear pictures of his adversary. It should be emphasized that the fact that he had several spouses doesn't do anything to change our perception of him as a womanizer.
