In June 2008, Paul got married to his long time girlfriend Chantal Brown. The couple met when Paul was dating a friend of Chantal's and lost touch when the friend and Paul broke up. In 2004, Paul and Chantal met again and they started dating at the start of 2005.
Paul: (On why he thinks his show "Harley Street" had poor figures for the first series and why he thinks it will have a second series despite that) It's a winter show really. We got lost stuck in the middle of summer and bosses know that now, thankfully.
Paul: (On whether he and his wife are planning to have children) We're planning to in the next few years, hopefully. I'd love to have loads but as I'm not the one popping them out, it'll be up to her!
Paul: (About the rough time he had after quitting "EastEnders") I was drunk for six months. I didn't deal with anything that was going on in my head, I just went out and got drunk.
