Inbetweeners star James Buckley and wife stalked by woman who threatened ‘violent acts’

James Buckley and his wife Clair were reportedly stalked by a woman who allegedly threatened them ‘with violent acts’.

A court heard The Inbetweeners actor was allegedly pursued by a woman, Keavy O’Mahoney, near the couple’s Essex home, which left them scared for their safety.

As reported by The Sun, court records show the couple ‘feared on at least two occasions that violence would be used’ against them on two separate occasions last week.

It’s said O’Mahoney, 26, was arrested and charged after the alleged incidents on Monday and Wednesday.

She was released on bail at Luton Magistrates’ Court, and is due at Luton Crown Court on July 28.

O’Mahoney has been banned from contacting the couple on any electronic devices, while she’s also been ordered to remain at home each night, and cannot leave without an adult approved by social services.

James and Clair got married in 2012, and have two children together.

They host their own podcast, At Home With The Buckleys, where they share hilarious unfiltered stories from their everyday life.

And it was recently confirmed they’ll be teaming up for Channel 4 show Gogglebox.

In a post shared on his and the programme’s official accounts, they said: ‘Hi guys, how’s it going?

‘We are joining the Gogglebox family. We’re going to be watching some great TV and some not so great TV.’

Despite his success in The Inbetweeners and White Gold, James previously put it all down to ‘luck’ as he opened up on suffering from imposter syndrome.

Speaking to Metro in 2023, he insisted he has seen friends and people ‘way more talented’ than him struggling to make a name for themselves in the entertainment world.

He added: ‘I always just feel like some bloke that was plucked from Dagenham and put in a suit and sat on a chair. I never really felt like that’s actually what my life is like.’

But last year, he told Metro he still finds the scenes just as funny as when they were first created.

‘It might be a bit more cringy or embarrassing than being the actor who’s so fed up with a character and too cool for school, but I still find it funny,’ he said.

‘I still find it as funny as when I first read it.’

Metro has contacted representatives for James Buckley for comment.
