In an interview with Hello! magazine the same year, the star revealed he had been in a car crash in Spain, which had left him with a broken neck. He told the publication he felt like “the luckiest man alive”, having been told by nurses he was 3mm from death. In 2011, he married Canadian actress Natasha Henstridge, but they divorced a few years later. He also made cameos in TV shows Hollyoaks and Hotel Babylon, and later moved into the film industry, with an executive producer credit on the 2016 Daniel Radcliffe film Imperium.
