Charlene married Adam in 2021, who is best known for playing Captain Homer Jackson in Ripper Street.
The actress also starred in the BBC One drama as Rose Erskine.

Charlene previously admitted that she still lives with the 'existential terror' that her acting work will dry up.
She told The Sun: 'I still live with the existential terror and dread it will go away. And everybody is like, ''Are you taking time off?'' and I am taking time going, ''Don't go away though''.
'You feel nervous taking time off because you're like, ''Will that be it then?'' You're going, "I only wanted a few weeks lads" and it's a year later.
'What's the saying? You don't retire, the industry retires you.'
