James Norton, 38, has kept his cards close to his chest when it comes to his fiancée Imogen Poots, 34, which is why fans were likely surprised to hear the actress spill a few details about their secret relationship.

The Happy Valley star and the 28 Weeks Later actress live in Peckham, East London, but they were used to making their relationship work even on other sides of the world!

Speaking about the impact of long-distance while she was splitting her time between London and New York, she told ES Magazine in 2020: "It's all I've ever known. I've never known something to fall apart because of distance."

Commenting on their living situation, the Need For Speed star jokingly added: "Sharing a bathroom, however, is quite another matter."

Imogen also suggested she has no plans to stop exploring and settle down, although that may have changed over the last three years, during which time the couple have become engaged.

"But I’m not ready to do that. I want to keep exploring the world," said Imogen, who met James while starring in the West End production of Belleville in 2017. See what career path he was following before becoming an actor...
