Actor Larry Lamb, 78, known for his role in the BBC comedy 'Gavin & Stacey,' has revealed he is living with his ex-partner, actress Clare Burt, more than ten years after their split. The couple, who share two daughters, have moved back into the same home after spending years apart.
Lamb shared the update on the Rosebud podcast with Gyles Brandreth, stating that he and Burt are living together "as friends... literally as friends." He described their current relationship as a "really pally life."
Lamb and Burt were together for approximately two decades and had two daughters before their long-term relationship ended. Their separation became public in 2016. Lamb, who also has other children from previous relationships, has had a history of multiple marriages and long-term partnerships. He previously described himself as a "happily single man" in October.
Regarding his extensive romantic history, Lamb has humorously referred to having "Seven marriages," clarifying that three were official and four others lasted between three and fifteen years. His first marriage was to Anita Wisbey, followed by a marriage to American nurse Jacquie Parris, and then to Scottish entrepreneur Linda Martin in 1979. He and Martin divorced in 1996 and share a son, TV presenter George Lamb.
Lamb has spoken positively about Burt's influence in his career. He previously credited her with helping him secure the role of Mick Shipman in 'Gavin & Stacey' after his initial audition was unsuccessful. Her advice to him was to stop
