She very much enjoyed the time she had making this wonderful picture and all of the lovely people she got to work with. It is available in UK and Ireland theatres starting Friday July 23rd, 2021!"

It's been an incredibly difficult time for the family – but John has excelled in his role as a single parent to Ella and her younger brother, ten-year-old Benjamin.
