In September last year, Craig marked a big milestone. The TV star turned 50 and he and Paul headed to Spain to celebrate according to his Instagram. Craig shared a photo of the couple and opened up in a lengthy caption about how he was feeling about turning 50.

He said in part: "Yesterday was strange, I was aware with every passing moment my 40s were melting away like the wax of a burning candle. I felt a little sad like a mourning, saying goodbye to all those years before."

Craig then added: "But, at the same time a huge feeling of gratitude and appreciation for being alive and well & conscious that many people we've known & loved (including in my family and friends) haven't made to this age." He continued: "Here's a couple of shots at London Bridge a few days ago when @chalky_whitey & me headed to Spain for a pre-birthday trip."

It's no secret that Craig is a fan of travelling, and his partner Paul is clearly just as passionate. Another adorable snap, posted in 2022, shows the pair standing next to each other as they explored the beautiful sights of Lisbon a few years earlier.
