Jaime, 36, who has been a familiar face in TV and film for two decades, grew up in Enfield in a family of actors.

Her father, Ray Winstone, is well known for his ‘hard man’ roles in films including Scum, Indiana Jones, and Quadrophenia.

Still acting today, he’s described by The Independent as “the East End’s answer to George Clooney” and one of the UK’s “seminal screen hard nuts”.

Jaime’s older sister, Lois, is also an actress having had roles in both Holby City and The Bill, as well as appearing in two episodes in season four of Game of Thrones.

Jaime also sings backing vocals in Lois’ band, and has appeared in some music videos, including the video for Madness’ song Dust Devil alongside her then boyfriend and Game of Thrones star Alfie Allen.

Allen and Jaime got engaged in 2008, but then split in 2010. They reunited in 2013, only to split again the next year due to their work schedules keeping them apart.

Jaime later met DJ James Suckling in 2015 and the pair had a son, Raymond, in 2016 – named after her father.
