Busier than ever, Emilia Fox is set to return to our screens in season 29 of Silent Witness. Reprising her long-running role as Dr Nikki Alexander, the latest instalment will follow the forensic pathologist as she takes on new cases while adjusting to married life with her colleague and husband, Jack Hodgson (David Caves). While fans of the show have long wondered if there's a real spark between Emilia and her co-star David, the two are simply good friends, and away from the show, Emilia is currently single after splitting from her long-term love, producer Jonathan Stadlen, in February 2025. 

Speaking with Woman & Home in January, the actress noted that while "the end of relationships are always sad," she's focusing on things that make her feel "positive, hopeful and optimistic" for the future. "I feel very positive now, very invigorated and renewed," Emilia told the publication. "There are no new love interests. I'm just really looking forward to what the future holds. New beginnings."

Prior to meeting Jonathan, Emila, 51, had been involved in several high-profile relationships over the years, and she's always spoken highly of her exes. Here, we take a look at her love life over the years…
