When shops began to reopen again, James took the difficult decision to end his long career in retail and instead focus on caring for his young twins, or “tiny sous-chefs” as they have become known.

With his signature look including a Portsmouth Football Club t-shirt, James will always be a Pompey boy at heart. Now often found dancing around his kitchen in Bristol, his roots are never too far away.
