Who is Jenna Coleman’s boyfriend Jamie Childs?
Jenna’s boyfriend Jamie, 35, is a writer and director who hails from the North East of England.
Born in the village of Shotton Colliery, the filmmaker has cited his hometown as inspiration for his work, after shooting his first feature-length movie Jackdaw in in Hartlepool and Teesside.
His most notable work includes The Sandman (2022), Willow (2022), His Dark Materials (2019), and some episodes of Doctor Who.
Jackdaw, which was released in January, was Jamie’s feature film directorial debut, having only worked on TV shows previously.
Speaking to Screen Rant about how he made the jump from TV to film, Jamie said: ‘I was in between two TV jobs at the time, sort of unemployed, and thought I can’t really sit around just watching movies for another month.
‘I thought I should probably sit down and write one. Also, my partner basically stopped talking to me on a holiday.
‘She was rehearsing for something she was doing next, and basically, I realised that she just needed to get her head into it. So, I put my headphones on and began writing, and that when it all started.’

Jenna and Jamie met on the set of the Netflix series The Sandman in 2020 and have since worked together again on Jamie’s first film Jackdaw.
The actress played the role of occult detective Johanna Constantine in the adaption of the Neil Gaiman and DC Comics’ book, which was directed by Jamie.
Meanwhile in the thriller film Jackdaw, the couple worked together again as Jenna played a character called Bo – an old flame of Jack, who is portrayed by Oliver Jackson-Cohen.
The couple were first rumoured to be together in December 2021 and were officially spotted together for the first time in February 2022.
They were photographed on a stroll in Islington smiling and holding hands, just days after they were seen outside her £2.2million home as furniture was moved in.
Since then, Jenna and Jamie’s public appearances together have been rare and they largely seem to keep their romantic life quiet.
The actress famously keeps her relationships private and has never spoken publicly about her romance with Jamie.

The former Emmerdale and Doctor Who star was first linked with her director boyfriend Jamie Childs, 35, in 2021 after they met on set for The Sandman the year before.
