Has Silent Witness star Emilia f inally found ‘The One’?
AS A multi-millionaire actress, finding love shouldn’t be too hard for Silent Witness star Emilia Fox.
But she has had to endure quite the rollercoaster ride when it comes to romance – until now, it seems.
The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Ms Fox, 47, is dating handsome, well-heeled television producer Jonathan Stadlen – and has been telling friends that she thinks he is ‘the one’.
On Friday, Mr Stadlen, who owns a successful production company called Knickerbockerglory, walked his new girlfriend’s two dachshunds near her home in West London.
And yesterday the couple went out together, this time without her beloved pooches.
Friends say they got together in June after meeting through mutual friends. They are understood to have met members of each other’s families and are said to be ‘besotted’.
Mr Stadlen, a 43-year-old divorcé who lives three miles away from Ms Fox – a member of the famous Fox acting dynasty – was the man behind the recent hit Netflix series An American Murder: The Family Next Door.
In July, he joined Ms Fox on a podcast about crime in lockdown.
One friend told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Both Jonathan and Emilia are totally besotted, they might have only been together for a few months but they are very happy.
‘Jonathan has been excitedly telling his friends about his new girlfriend. It is all very sweet.’
Ms Fox, who has a ten-year-old daughter named Rose from her relationship with actor and activist Jeremy Gilley, split from her talent agent fiance Luc Chaudhary in October last year, 18 months after they met on the exclusive celebrity dating app Raya.
Before that she dated controversial TV chef Marco Pierre White from 2012 to 2016 after she and Mr Gilley went their separate ways. At the time, he was still married to his wife, Mati Conejero, with whom he has three children, and their relationship was said to have been a tortuous, on-off one.
In 2000, Ms Fox was engaged to the comedian Vic Reeves but after they ended their relationship she dated British artist and designer Toby Mott, 57.
In July 2005, she married the British actor Jared Harris, the son of Irish film star Richard Harris. They announced their separation in 2008 following the breakdown of their long-distance relationship, and were divorced in 2010.
Ms Fox is the daughter of actress Joanna David and her father is the actor Edward Fox. Her uncle is James Fox, father of the actor and activist Laurence Fox.
Her younger brother is rising star Freddie Fox, who played Jeremy Bamber in the 2019 ITV drama White House Farm.
