EASTENDERS STAR JAMES BYE, WHO PLAYED MARTIN FOWLER, HAS MADE A HUGE LIFE CHANGE MONTHS AFTER HIS CHARACTER MET A FATEFUL END IN ONE OF THE SOAP'S SADDEST EPISODES EVER 12:19, 02 Jun
2025Updated 14:52, 02 Jun 2025 EastEnders star James Bye has sold his home and is now living in a field after bidding farewell to Albert Square earlier this year. In one of the soap's
saddest episodes, marking its 40th birthday, James' character, Martin Fowler, was killed off when the Queen Vic collapsed, leaving his legion of loyal fans bereft. Following the
dramatic scenes, James, 41, who is currently playing Mr Darcy in a theatre tour of Death Comes to Pemberley, has made a major life change as his wife told their followers they have sold
their home and moved into caravan - with their four kids and two blind dogs. Revealing the surprising news on Instagram, Victoria said: "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… READ MORE: EastEnders shares glimpse at Kat and Alfie's
wedding as they tease major drama ahead "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!)" Explaining the 'method to their madness', Victoria said it had long been a dream for the
couple to live in a caravan because both their parents had done it in the eighties. Revealing that James' sister was even conceived in a home on wheels, she said: "A dream we’ve
long since had and just never had the time … or the belief that we could. Article continues below "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 and get
back to following your dreams & all that gumph…) 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!" Despite James' parents creating new life in their caravan, Victoria was adamant that she and James would not be adding to their family of six. Lifting the lid on their
family plans, she said: "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." _LIKE THIS STORY? FOR MORE OF THE LATEST SHOWBIZ NEWS AND GOSSIP, FOLLOW MIRROR
