Speaking to the MailOnline in November 2024, Charles opened up about his romance with Cat. He said: “I am too old for hearts and flowers stuff. But the best way to describe it is that with Cat. I can be myself, she knows who I am. Who I really am. I don’t have to pretend to be something I am not. And she brings out the best in me.”

Cat was previously married to her ex-husband Tom Jarman and has two sons.
