James Norton and Imogen Poots Split After Six Years Together

Actor James Norton and his fiancée Imogen Poots have reportedly called it quits after being together for six years. The couple, who first met during an adaptation of War and Peace in 2017 and later worked together in Belleville at Donmar Warehouse, got engaged in February 2022.

However, sources suggest that the pair decided to part ways towards the end of last year due to their busy work schedules, which caused them to grow apart. Norton, 38, and Poots, 34, had been living together in East London before their separation.

Norton, known for his role in the popular series Happy Valley, recently starred in the Bob Marley biopic One Love alongside actors like Lashana Lynch and Kingsley Ben-Adir. The film premiered in various locations including Jamaica, Los Angeles, and London.

Imogen Poots, on the other hand, has been busy filming projects such as Outer Range in New Mexico and is currently working on Hedda, an adaptation of Ibsen’s play Hedda Gabler in the UK. The actress was last seen in support of Norton during the opening night of A Little Life back in March 2023.

The couple’s split became more apparent as they have unfollowed each other on social media, with Poots notably missing from Norton’s recent film premieres and events. The duo had previously shared their experiences of maintaining a long-distance relationship and managing their professional commitments.
