To keep the money flowing, he began working as a chef and then in sales for a few years. He also worked at the London Beer Factory.

Is He Married? 

In the world of celebrities, being in the limelight just comes with the territory. They are always caught in the crosshairs of mass media attention, whether it be a new love interest or anything related to their careers. 

While some celebrities love the extra press, others would rather spend a quiet evening at home with their loved ones. 

The same goes for Josh Casswell; he rarely finds himself the subject of tabloid fodder, and that’s likely because he prefers to keep his personal life far away from the press. 

Despite this, we have conducted some sleuthing into his personal life. If we believe the sources, he is married. 

He tied the knot in 2016 with a former folk singer; however, his wife's identity has not been revealed. 

Josh and his family reside in London, and he recognizes the need to be and stay in London. 

“My roots and my upbringing are part of me and will always be important. It was a massive shock to the system when I first moved south. I got digs in Peckham and it was three or four weeks before I started drama school. It’s a big Afro-Caribbean community, very different to Doncaster, so took some adjusting to, but diversity is a beautiful thing and I’m a better person for experiencing it."
