Who is James Corden’s TV producer wife, Julia Carey? The Gavin & Stacey star met his then future partner thanks to actor Dominic Cooper
James Corden returned to the UK last year after his stint in Hollywood, and recently finished the script for the final episode of his much loved sitcom Gavin & Stacey
James Corden – who traded Hollywood for the UK last year – revealed in July that he and former co-star Ruth Jones had finished the script for the final Christmas episode of their early 2000s hit sitcom Gavin & Stacey – but admitted it needed trimming.
“Writing is really fun, because you can just go ‘anything can happen’,” he told Chris Evans on his Virgin Radio show in July. “But when you rewrite stuff, you’re dealing with a lot of logistics and ‘well, look we might not be able to shoot that, or this needs to be in this location, is there any way this can change?’ And frankly, it’s too long.”
“So really what we have been doing the last few weeks really is just trying to make it as economical as possible. And we finished it yesterday,” said the former talk show host.
He added that he felt “very emotional”.
What does Julia Carey do for work?
According to British media, Carey is a TV producer who was also an actress in the early days of her career.
She’s very private
While her husband has become a well-known public figure, Carey has shied away from the spotlight and doesn’t appear to have any social media. Corden does occasionally bring her up in interviews though, and thanked her in his Tony Award acceptance speech in 2012.
“My girlfriend, Julia, gave birth to our son five days before we started rehearsals. She is my baby mama and I can’t wait to marry her,” he told the audience. “Seriously, I would not be holding this if it wasn’t for her. She made me say ‘us’ instead of ‘I’ and ‘we’ instead of ‘me,’ and I love her. Thank you very much.”
