But now The Sunday Mirror is reporting that James, 40, and Rachael have quietly split.

James confirmed to the publication: “Rachael and I had a wonderful relationship and marriage. It was very sad, but friendly, and we remained friends.”

The source added: “James and Rachael have enjoyed a really happy marriage but, as many couples can relate, their relationship has become strained during quarantine.

“James is in the public eye while Rachael prefers to be out of the limelight and after eight fantastic years together they decided they were better off as friends.

“James is focused on work for now. They still have a lot of love for each other.”

The couple met at a camp in Glastonbury, and James previously told how he made the first move.

He said: “I was watching that girl pumping up the air bed with a foot pump and I thought, ‘I’ve got an electric pump in my bag, I could be the hero here’. So I went over and said, ‘Excuse me, would you like to borrow my pump?'”

James first joined Hollyoaks in 2006 to 2008, before returning in 2012 to 2017.

He recently returned to the series in 2019 and remains part of the cast.
