‘We developed those storylines together with our incredible writers, so it’ll always hold a very real place in my heart and memories. We stay in contact. She is the sweetest.’

The actor added that he would ‘love any opportunity for us to continue that story’ because Jackson and April – who share daughter Harriet – ‘have an ability to communicate and be vulnerable with each other and push each other.’
