EastEnders star sells home and moves into a caravan just weeks after being killed off on the soap
EASTENDERS star James Bye has sold his "forever home" and moved into a caravan with his family - weeks after being killed off on the soap. The 41-year-old star's wife, Victoria Bye, revealed the couple, their four children and two blind dogs are now living in the middle of a field. 5 James Bye played Martin Fowler until earlier this year Credit: BBC 5 The actor with his wife Victoria Credit: Instagram 5 The family are making a major move Credit: Instagram Victoria wrote on Instagram: "It's official …because we've only gone and sold our 'forever home' "And not only that. We've done it so that we can move into a field - and into a caravan… "Yes, you read that right. A tin box on wheels with barely enough room to swing a cat let alone four kids + two blind dogs. S**t. "Now, you may wonder what in the hell we're doing (I know we do, both still I denial I think!)" READ MORE ON JAMES BYE in the BBC soap's live 40th anniversary episode. He landed a new straightaway as the iconic Jane Austen hero Mr Darcy in the theatrical world premiere of Death Comes To Pemberley. His wife has now told of the "method to my madness" of moving into a caravan - to build their own house. Victoria revealed: "A dream we've long since had and just never had the time … or the belief that we could. Most read in Soaps "And yet somehow, when it feels like we've got more than ever on our plate, we thought. Sod it. It's now or never. This is our year for change. And so we are. "I mean, what's could go wrong?! (Er, right. Everything apparently. But let's just breeze over that bit & get back to following your dreams & all that gumph…) EastEnders' James Bye reveals his wife's reaction to soap exit - and the one demand he made to soap bosses "Because, really, it has been a bit of a dream of ours for a very long time. "And it's no surprise because both of our parents did the very same thing back in the 80's! And they survived! (just about!)" "In fact, James' sister was conceived in their caravan right on the foundations of the house they still call home to this day!" But Victoria insists she and James won't be conceiving any more kids in their new caravan home. She wrote: "And whilst there is a firm NO on any baby making shenanigans going on in our little love pad, the same belief & hope for something that we've built on our own is there. "It'll be an adventure. A messy, chaotic, mud filled ride - just us & our boys. And we cant wait. We might even get an alpaca. What the hell, in for a penny & all that… "So stick around for the journey you lovely lot - and please - any advice send our way. "Because in truth. We haven't got a bloody clue what we're doing." James' new move comes after his EastEnders co-star Adam Woodyatt, who plays Ian Beale, moved into a £93,000 motorhome in 2023, after he split from his wife of 22 years, Beverley Sharp. 5 The couple are moving into a caravan Credit: Instagram 5 Martin Fowler was killed off this year Credit: BBC
