A year and a half after his wife Gill Catchpole committed suicide at their family home, singer James Morrison has reportedly found love and happiness once more.
James Morrison has seemingly started dating again, 18 months after his wife, Gill Catchpole, died by suicide.
The singer and his late wife shared two daughters and she was found dead aged 45 in their Gloucestershire home in January 2024. Morrison, who found his wife after a friend struggled to gain access to the property, said losing his wife left him feeling “completely heartbroken”.
The Broken Strings singer appears to have found happiness with travel influencer Mariel Jones after what he has described as the most difficult time of his life.

On her Instagram account, Jones and Morrison have shared a number of images, including ones taken while on vacation in Rome, Sicily, and Copenhagen. The two are seen kissing in an Italian photo from July. Under her posts, friends of the influencer have written “cuties.”
The singer, who has worked with Catchpole for more than 20 years, appears to have made a new beginning. Morrison described their relationship as a “fairy tale” because he was a lodger at her mother’s house during a White Wine Question Time interview.
He acknowledged that it wasn’t the most enjoyable place to start, but I still think it was very romantic because we both met each other in the way that we did. It resembles a fairy tale in some ways.
Morrison posted a message on Instagram showing himself in a recording studio just before Catchpole passed away. The post’s title read, “New Year, new adventure.” Although the post made hints about the release of new music, Catchpole canceled all of his work commitments after his passing.
GP Dr. Emma Basker claimed Ms. Catchpole had “reoccurring mental illnesses,” including anxiety and PTSD, in a written statement. She had been given counseling and medication.
Morrison has discussed how to deal with grief through focusing on one’s family in the wake of her passing. He claimed that starting to perform once more gave him a new sense of purpose.
His album from 2019, You’re Stronger Than You Know, was dedicated to his wife after she showed strength during her difficult pregnancy with their second child, Ada Rose.
