Ruth Jones ‘wept down phone' to friends as she struggled with lasting problem
EXCLUSIVE: Actor and author Ruth Jones had several emotional ordeals that to wrestle with in recent years, one which left her sobbing on the phone Gavin and Stacey creator Ruth Jones struggled to cope with her menopausal weeping fits and mood swings in the latter years of her failing marriage. The writer and actress, 58, announced this week that she had split from her estranged husband David Peet after 26 years together. She revealed that they had actually legally separated some 18 months ago. Peet is now living in Canada and has even found a new partner. However, this is not the only emotional ordeal that Ruth had to wrestle with in recent years. The Welsh star – best known as Nessa Jenkins in the BBC comedy Gavin and Stacey which she co-wrote with James Corden – has admitted she would 'weep down the phone' to friends while she was going through the menopause in her early 50s. This is because she could not deal with her mood swings. She revealed: 'I think the menopause is a really strange experience to go through and I think, partly, I thought 'Oh it won't happen to me'. 'My mum used to say to me 'I don't know what all the fuss is about. I don't think I ever went through the menopause'. And I say 'Mum you must have done'. 'When I started to go through the menopause I was completely amazed by how it affected my moods and I'd be on the phone to one of my best friends and I'd be weeping on the phone 'I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm a different person'. 'And it was really astonishing and I started HRT and almost over night it kind of went away.' Ruth opened up about her struggles going through 'the change' at a literary talk in Bath in Somerset to promote her new book By Your Side at the end of May. Ironically, the novel's main character, Linda Standish, is a divorced plus-size woman in her 50s. Ruth admitted there have been discussions to turn the story into a TV drama and she claimed she would love to play the lead role. She said: 'A lot of people and early readers have said to me 'Who would you get to play these characters like Linda?' Well I am not going to lie. I'm in my 50s and I'm a plus-size woman.' The writer – who is set to appear in a new BBC drama about Jane Austen next year – admitted, however, that she has no plans to write a comedy about women going through the menopause. She added: 'I wouldn't know how to articulate anything about menopause. 'One of my characters in my book Love Untold is about to go into the menopause. She is about that time in her life. Seeing characters going through the menopause is interesting but I don't know how I'd write about it in a funny way. ' Davina McCall has done stuff and talked about it. It's more about communication. I mean you don't want to go out and talk about anything personal all the time and shove it down everyone's throats but on the other hand it is good so people don't feel alone and think 'Oh my god this is only happening to me'.' Ruth also said that although she and James had penned the final ever episode of Gavin and Stacey, which went out last Christmas and drew an audience of 19 million viewers, the show was still going on - in her head. She added: 'With Gavin and Stacey, I think that Nessa is still working down the slots. I think she is very much still there. And I think Pam is still having fencing lessons.'

Huge Coronation Street star quits soap and exit has already aired
One Coronation Street star's departure from the ITV soap has been confirmed after two years on the cobbles - and his final scenes have already aired on screen Coronation Street star Jack Carroll, known for his role as Bobby Crawford on the ITV soap, has left the show after two years - and fans have already seen his final scenes. The 26-year-old, who previously starred on ITV's Britain's Got Talent, joined the soap in 2023 as the nephew of Carla Connor, and the secret son of Rob Donovan. Last year, fans were left puzzled regarding the whereabouts of the character with some believing he had secretly quit the show then. He featured quite heavily in the soap earlier in the year and then suddenly disappeared with no mention of where he was. It's now been confirmed that Bobby has made his exit from the soap, although the door has been left open for a return. A source told The Mirror: "Bobby has had a dramatic couple of years on the cobbles, but the time has come to bid farewell. Actor Jack enjoyed his time on the soap, but it's time to move on. Viewers won't see the character exit the street as he's already left, with Jack filming his final scenes some time ago." "The door has been left open for Jack should he wish to come back to the show in the future. With his Aunty Carla there, Bobby will always have a place in Weatherfield." The character was last seen in the soap last month when he headed off to Spain to visit Simon Barlow. The trip came after he was accused of being Lauren Bolton's blackmailer. During his time on the cobbles, Jack's character Bobby was involved in a number of hard hitting storylines, including his shock reveal that he was killer Rob Donovan's secret son. His aunty Carla took him under her wing, but was left reeling when she found out Bobby had planned to help Rob escape after he had kidnapped her. Jack's exit follows a number of departures of young actors from the soap. Recently, Colson Smith left the soap after his character Craig Tinker was killed on the line of duty. Luca Toolan also departed the soap after his character Mason Radcliffe was stabbed and killed. Charlotte Jordan, who played Daisy Midgley also left the soap earlier this year as she left for Bali.
