Catherine Tyldesley gained popularity for her role as Eva Price on the long-running TV show “Coronation Street,” but who is her spouse in real life?
Joining the soap opera in 2011, Tyldesley quickly became a fan favorite. Even though she bid farewell to the show in 2018, she made a notable return in October the following year to take on the Rovers Return.
While Eva’s on-screen love life has been full of drama, Catherine Tyldesley enjoys a stable relationship with her husband Tom Pitfield. The couple’s love story began in January 2014 when they met at the gym. Within nine months, they announced their pregnancy and soon got engaged.
In May 2016, Catherine and Tom exchanged vows in a lavish ceremony attended by several of their “Coronation Street” co-stars. The couple welcomed their first child, Alfie James, in March 2015, and their daughter, Iris Ella, arrived in 2022.
Tom Pitfield also had his moment in the limelight with a role on the ITV consumer show “Eat, Shop, Save,” where he served as the fitness expert. Working with different families each week, Tom shared valuable tips on leading a healthy lifestyle through manageable changes.
In April 2023, Catherine disclosed that her husband discovered a lump in his breast, highlighting the importance of men being aware of the possibility of breast cancer. Fortunately, after medical evaluation, it was determined to be a common condition called gynaecomastia.
Catherine emphasized the need for awareness about men’s breast cancer and urged men to regularly check for symptoms. She expressed relief at the positive outcome and thanked the NHS and the surgeon involved.
“Coronation Street” airs on ITV1 and ITVX, Monday to Friday at 8:30 pm.
