Celebrity Chef James Martin Splits from Longtime Girlfriend Louise Davies and Spotted with Personal Trainer Kim Johnson

Celebrity chef James Martin has recently parted ways with his girlfriend of 12 years, Louise Davies. The 51-year-old and the TV producer, 47, began dating back in 2011 after a chance encounter on the set of Celebrity Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

Despite their split, the couple remains on good terms and chose to go their separate ways in December 2023, as confirmed by James’ spokesperson. This news comes just as James was seen enjoying a day out shopping for watches in Mayfair alongside personal trainer Kim Johnson.

Kim Johnson, who was previously married to businessman Arun Nayar, the ex-spouse of actress Elizabeth Hurley, accompanied James on his shopping trip in Mayfair. The sighting has sparked rumors about a potential new romance between James Martin and Kim Johnson.

James Martin, known for his culinary expertise on television, had previously expressed his disinterest in marriage, citing that weddings did not appeal to him. In past interviews, he emphasized his focus on career rather than settling down in a traditional sense.

Prior to his relationship with Louise Davies, James Martin had a notable romance with Barbara Broccoli, the producer behind the James Bond movies. Martin and Broccoli enjoyed a four-and-a-half-year relationship before parting ways due to what James described as an ‘imbalance’ in their dynamic.

Despite his personal life undergoing changes, James Martin recently announced a temporary break from his career due to health reasons. With his split from Louise Davies and newfound connection with Kim Johnson, fans are eagerly following the chef’s journey in both personal and professional spheres.
