television producer – Pat Llewellyn working at the River Café in London. She
saw him on a documentary called “Christmas at the River Café” – and recognized
his star potential immediately.

married Juliette Norton, also known as Jools. The couple currently have two

plans to relocate to a country house outside New York City. He told Night and
Day magazine^ “it’s my wife’s idea. She’s talked about it for three years. I
haven’t a clue why.”
He has also written
columns for The Times.
