Former Emmerdale star Matthew Woolfenden has previously opened up on his living arrangements with his former co-star and recent ex Charley Webb.
The 43-year-old actor joined the cast of the ITV soap in 2006, but departed earlier this year citing a lack of "gritty" storylines for his character, David Metcalfe. Charley, 35, meanwhile, landed the role of Debbie Dingle in 2002 and remained in the Dales until 2021.
After meeting on set, Matthew proposed on Christmas Day in 2009 before the pair eventually married nine years later. They went on to have three sons together, before confirming they had gone their separate ways earlier this month.

Previously speaking on Loose Women, Matthew has opened up on the family's new living arrangements in somewhat unusual circumstances. "Charley's out on tour and I'm down here in London," he began. "Bless my mum and dad – I owe them a holiday after this because they have stepped in and moved into the house to look after the kids."
He continued: "So yeah thanks, mum and dad! It's tough and I'm a really softie when it comes to the kids. I just love being at home with the kids and to be away from them I'm kind of counting down the days until the weekend." Charley has previously shared snaps of their stunning abode with her Instagram followers – showing off a picturesque view from a bedroom balcony.
The property boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with a second balcony overlooking a large garden that has been surrounded by trees for privacy. Matthew and Charley confirmed their split earlier this month and in November 26, it was reported that Matthew is now dating high-profile fitness trainer, Heather Stanley. The gym instructor is said to charge £40-an-hour and encourages her clients to "leave the past behind, focus on what you can do now".

The loved-up pair were spotted in public walking hand-in-hand through London like "honeymooners". The couple were sighted multiple times before Matthew and Charley announced the end of their marriage, according to The Sun. It is unclear how the Matthew and Heather met, but a source said things are going very well for the lovebirds. The unnamed intel said, "Heather was wary about getting too involved with Matthew too soon, but is head over heels. She was trying not to be seen with him, standing away from the stage door when he emerged from show rehearsals and shows. But now the cat is out of the bag."
