Cheating allegations
Andrew and Amy's marriage made headlines in December 2022 when it was reported that the pair had split. Just months later, in February 2023, it was alleged that the Black Doves actor had fallen for his Better co-star, Leila Farzad, and left their marriage of 11 years.

At the time, the MailOnline reported that the pair would adopt the 777 approach, consisting of one date every seven days, one night away every seven weeks and one holiday every seven months.
In August 2023, it was reported that the couple had split for a second time. However, in an interview with The Times published in March, Amy confirmed that the pair were still married and living together in Buckinghamshire with their two young children.

The current status of their relationship is unclear as back in September, Amy was pictured without her wedding ring. Likewise, at a premiere held in December, Andrew hid his ring hand in his pocket while walking the red carpet.
Children
Andrew and Amy are proud parents to a son and daughter, however, the pair have kept their identities secret and have rarely spoken about the duo.
