The couple has a daughter Eva, who was born in February 2013, and sons, Kit born in April 2015 and Noah born in December 2016.

They met when Joanna starred alongside James in the 1999 series David Copperfield, and then went on to tie the knot in 2003.

Lockdown was hard for the pair, and Joanna confessed that they almost decided to split.

She told The Sun: “We spent the whole of the first lockdown arguing and threatening to divorce each other. Then we went through a month of literally not saying a single word to each other.”

He’s also featured in the likes of Holby City and Stella.

Joanna’s also enjoyed roles in Love Actually, Dolittle and Dream Horse.

She played Elizabeth I in the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special, The Day of the Doctor.

Joanna Page became one of the presenters on Shop Well For Less alongside Melanie Sykes in 2021.

Meanwhile, the Welsh star previously opened up about her dietary habits.

“I don’t diet,” she told iNews. “I’ve got low blood sugar and so, if I starve myself, I end up fainting. I eat lots of fruit and veg, and I have toyed with being vegetarian many times, but I like meat and I think I need the iron.”
