According to HELLO!, Imelda Staunton and Jim Carter met in 1982 when the two of them were in the Royal National Theatre production of the Broadway musical, "Guys and Dolls." It was Staunton's first big stage production while Carter, on the other hand, had been in several theatrical roles. They got married in 1983, and have been a solid couple ever since.

Even with over 30 years of marriage, something like the COVID-19 lockdown could put a strain on any couple. But Staunton and Carter told The Daily Mail that things had been pretty peachy. Carter shared how he was growing out his hair like his" hippie roots" and how Staunton performed a little DIY by cutting her own. The outlet commented on how their real-life chemistry easily shows why they've lasted so long as a married couple. But when it came to Zoom and other 21st century ways of communication, the pair are not as thrilled. "We both hate technology and we're not very good at it,' Carter said. 'We don't feel the need for it. I'm enjoying making phone calls rather than sending emails, having the luxury of a long conversation, not shoveling out information."

They have one child, Bessie Carter, who stayed with her parents during the lockdown as well, according to RSVP Live. She is also in the period piece circuit, having played Prudence Featherington in Netflix's "Bridgerton," per IMDb.
