James McAvoy moves into a new London home with girlfriend Lisa Liberati after spending lockdown together in a 'tiny flat'
James McAvoy has revealed that he and partner Lisa Liberati have finally been able to move into a big new house in London following lockdown.
Glasgow born James, 41, and Philadelphia born Lisa, who he is said to have secretly married last year, share their time between London and the States where she also works as a social media manager for a Pennsylvanian estate agent app.
The couple have been in a relationship since 2017 when James met Lisa, then a production assistant, on the set of Split - in which he held a starring role.

Although James was married at the time to actress Anne Marie Duff, mother to his child Brendan, the two were in the process of separating after an eleven year marriage.
James spent lockdown with Lisa at his modest London apartment, which he took over after moving out of the £1.9 million four bed home he shared with Anne Marie Duff.

During their time in isolation, James boasted of Lisa’s cake and donut making prowess on his Instagram account as well as some of her Jamie Oliver styled dishes.
He has now revealed that the couple had all their belongings packed up in their spare room in April and have eventually managed to move to a bigger house in London now that lockdown is over.
He said: 'We are in London and it’s all good. We’ve just moved into a nice, slightly bigger house but we were in a tiny flat before.

'Round about April we built a makeshift studio in my spare bedroom. Our only spare bedroom which was full of moving stuff was rammed and just full of this James made recording studio.'
James and Lisa had hinted that a move was on the cards when they were spotted strolling hand in hand and looking at London properties including a £3.5 million house in September last year.
It is thought that the couple had intended to move in April in conjunction with James birthday celebrations but we’re held up due to government Covid restrictions.
James has since given a glimpse of his new property‘s high vaulted and embossed ceilings and white walls while appearing on The Jimmy Fallon show.
