While Jaime has spent her life on film sets and in front of the camera, her husband James Suckling is more at home behind the decks. James is a successful DJ, bringing the beats to clubs, festivals, and high-profile parties. Given his deep roots in the music industry, it’s no surprise that music has played a huge part in their relationship. How did the couple meet? The couple first began dating in 2015, and have been together for an impressive 11 years as of 2026. After seven years of dating, they decided to take the next big step. James popped the question in the summer of 2022 while the pair were attending that year’s Glastonbury Festival. Most read in TV News Jaime described herself as being “on cloud nine” following the romantic proposal. Where did they get married? When it came to tying the knot, the couple didn’t do anything by halves. Jaime and James wed in an A-list ceremony in Sicily, Italy in October 2023. They chose La Tonnara di Scopello, a 13th-century former tuna fishery near Palermo, as their rustic, sun-drenched venue. Surrounded by 250 close friends and family, guests to the lavish outdoor wedding included actresses Sheridan Smith and Cara Delevingne, alongside radio presenters Miquita Oliver and Nick Grimshaw. One of the most touching moments came from Jaime’s dad, legendary Sexy Beast hardman actor Ray Winstone. Ditching his tough-guy movie persona, Ray walked his daughter down the cobbled outdoor aisle. The reception featured colourful confetti cannons, disco lights, and a first dance under the Sicilian stars. How many children do they have? Jaime and James had already started their family before their wedding. The couple share one child together, a son named Raymond, who was born in 2016. Named after his famous grandfather, the 10-year-old will no doubt be cheering from the sofa as his mum takes on the Strictly judges. Comment now
