"Going to work every day, working on people's roofs and them recognising you from Hollyoaks is a hard thing to deal with at first – especially when they make comments and don't realise what they are saying to you," he said.
He stated at the time that he was trying to get back into acting, but noted that it was "tougher than people think" with "a lot of waiting for the right opportunities to pop".
Although, for the foreseeable future, it looks like he's going to be pretty busy with dad duties.
