The couple were all smiles as they went public with a day out in North London.

And a source said at the time: “They have been enjoying dates and seem very happy together.

“It has been a year since his relationship with Imogen ended and he appears to get on so well with Charlotte. They make a lovely couple.”

But six months later, and it has now been reported that they’ve called time on their romance.

James has now been spotted on a high profile dating app named Raya. 

His profile on the app features snaps of the star with a shaved head, which is a new look for his upcoming role in movie Sunny Dancer.

The Sun has contacted James’ representatives for comment. 

Charlotte was James’s first public romance since he and Outer Range actress Imogen, 35, ended their six-year romance.

The pair met in 2017 while appearing in an adaptation of War and Peace and got engaged in February 2022.

James and Imogen parted late last year but the split was only made public in February.

Opening up about their break up, James said recently: “Some of the choices recently weren’t mine, yet I don’t feel begrudging.

“I just mean that you have a certain amount of control over your life and choices you make, and at other times you don’t.”

Away from his love life, rumours have been swirling around that James will play the next James Bond

But James seems to have put them to bed, and addressing the rumours while at the BAFTAs, he spoke to TV presenter Alex Zane, and said: “Whoever is deciding on these odds needs to get a new job. It’s so weird and bemusing.”

Actor James made the comment when told he was the bookies’ favourite to take on the role of 007 next.

James, 39, continued: “Yet again it's based on pure speculation. It makes for a good clickbait moment in the media but other than that, it's fun and bemusing I guess."
