The couple - who wed back in 2012 - decided to redo their big day on a fantastic holiday with their family and friends, including James' co-star Lacey Turner. 

Describing the special day, James, 38, admitted he was unable to control his emotions and struggled to get his words out during his vows. 

Joking about her husband's decision to freestyle instead of his prepare his vows in advance, Victoria, 40, told the Daily Mail: "In hindsight I think had wished he'd written them down because once he started crying, he was a bit all over the place."

James then confessed: "I choked up, the emotions took over."

The EastEnders star revealed his three-year-old son Hugo had to have a word with him.

James recalled: "Hugo kept saying 'Stop crying, dad!' And then he was whispering in my ear, 'Can I watch Netflix? Can I go on your phone?'"

Their eldest son Edward, 9, also had a part in the ceremony as he walked Victoria down the aisle.

The couple also have son Louis, six, and are expecting their fourth child this year.

On New Year’s Day, James and Victoria announced they were expecting another baby after trying for three years.

In the Instagram post, they can be seen all smiles in their kitchen, with Victoria putting her left arm around James and with the baby scan photo in her right hand.

Alongside fans, his EastEnders family and 2022 Strictly Come Dancing cast members commented their congratulations.

Lacey Turner, who plays Martin Fowler’s ex-wife Stacey Slater, left a red heart, while his Strictly dance partner Amy Dowden said: “So happy for your beautiful family xxxx.”
