It is easy for this talented creator to fall in the shadow of her comedian husband, but it seems that Julia Carey might prefer it that way, as she took a step out of the limelight to focus on her career as a producer.

How long has Jim Corden been with his wife?
Jim Corden is best known for entertaining us on the Late Late show, Carpool Karaoke, the voice of "Biggie" in Trolls, among other hilarious sitcoms and talk shows.
This cute couple can thank their mutual friend, Dominic Cooper, for introducing the two back in 2009. The introduction was made at a Save The Children event in London, the humanitarian organisation for which Julia was working at the time. It was believed to be love at first sight, with Corden's opening line being a declaration of her astounding beauty.
The pair then proceeded to plan their lives together that very same night, allegedly only in good humour, but the joke was on them, as their plans came true and they were engaged within a year, on Christmas day to top it off.
James and Julia were finally married in September 2012 after postponing the wedding due to a (possibly) unexpected pregnancy. They are now proud parents to three children, Max (born in March 2011), Carey (October 2014), and Charlotte (December 2017). The Corden family all share a home together in Los Angeles.
How old is Julia Carey? In 2021 she celebrated her 45th birthday, making her two years older than her husband, James. She currently focuses her time behind the scenes as a producer and seems to be stepping away from the acting scene.

Julia Carey's career
The first time this talented actress graced us with her presence on screen was when she was just a child. She portrayed Carol Walsh in the television series A Bunch of Fives, which aired from 1977 to 1978. Julia then moved over to Enemy at the Door, followed by Within These Walls, which are both British shows, so one could deduce that her childhood was spent in the United Kingdom.
The young actress did not return to the screen for the next ten years but made her comeback in the 1990's sitcom Wings. Julia Carey's character was Kate Gaylion, and the series ran for eight seasons.
She has since moved over to the production side of things and has been involved in the creation of the animated comedy, The Three-Body Solution and the crime comedy, The Locksmith, which were both released in 2010.

Is Julia Carey British?
Most reports state that she was born in Los Angeles and claim that she is of American nationality. However, one can assume that she spent quite a bit of time in England as a child, as her early acting career is based around British television programmes. In addition, having such a British husband seems to emphasise her relationship with the United Kingdom.

Is Julia Carey related to Jim Carrey?
If you associate the Canadian comedic actor, Jim Carrey, with our beloved Julia, then look a bit closer. Although the two have similar surnames, the comedian possesses two "r's" in spelling his name. There is no link to confirm that the two are indeed related, although we are sure that many would love to see James Corden and Jim Carrey in a room together; that would probably leave us in stitches!
