Celebrities Rose and James, who were once a couple, may have an uncomfortable encounter as they both have been cast in the upcoming animated TV series, Badjelly. The show is based on the famous book by Spike Milligan and will feature renowned actress Miriam Margolyes as the voice of the villainous witch.
Other famous actors like Jo Brand, Richard O’Brien, and Colin Hoult have also been confirmed to join the cast, along with comedians Rose Matafeo and James Acaster, according to British Comedy Guide. But what makes this situation potentially awkward is that Rose and James were in a relationship almost a decade ago, before they broke up in 2017.
At that time, Rose had moved from New Zealand to London to be with her boyfriend, James, who frequently appears on popular panel shows like "Would I Lie To You?" and "8 Out of 10 Cats." However, their breakup didn't seem to affect their professional relationship, as they appeared on a TV show together in 2019.
But even though they seem to be on good terms now, Rose has previously stated that she would not recommend dating comedians, including herself. In an interview in 2022, she revealed that she believes relationships between people in the same profession can be tricky and she encourages branching out.
On the other hand, James has shared a funny anecdote about one of his exes leaving him for none other than Rowan Atkinson, famously known as Mr. Bean. He joked about how he found out a year after their breakup and how it's a unique experience to be left for Mr. Bean.
Despite their past relationship, Rose and James seem to be supportive of each other's careers. In fact, Rose appeared on James' TV show, Hypothetical, in 2019 and they even acted out a skit together, showing that there is no bad blood between them.
With the news of both of them being cast in Badjelly, it may seem like there could be some awkwardness on set. But it looks like they are both mature enough to handle the situation and remain professional. After all, they have both moved on and found success in their respective careers.
