• Andy Serkis expects taking more trips now that his children are older.
• The 58-year-old actor, who is married to Lorraine Ashbourne.
• He told a magazine: “Now the kids are older, Lorraine and I want to do more travelling.”

The 58-year-old actor, who is married to Lorraine Ashbourne and has three children, Louis, 18, Ruby, 24, and Sonny, with her, is thrilled to be able to travel further and have new experiences with his wife now that their children don’t require constant supervision.

He told Red magazine: “Now the kids are older, Lorraine and I want to do more travelling.

“We’d love to go to South America. I also want to do more climbing; I’ve been to Everest base camp and solo climbed the Matterhorn so more of that!”

Being “present in the moment,” according to the “Luther: The Fallen Sun” actor, is the secret to his lengthy marriage to the “Inside No. 9” actress.

He said: “When you’re both creative people, you’re constantly thinking about the next thing you’re working on, or working on location.

“But I think we’ve got better about being present in the moment.

“When we’re away we miss each other like crazy then when we’re together, we’re really happy.

“We like to be active; we might walk across Hampstead Heath or cycle down to Rotherhithe and get a cup of coffee on the river.”

Andy and Lorraine have always been committed to maintaining their family life as “normal” despite their individual professional triumphs.

He said:” We’ve always explained to them that we’re really lucky to do what we do, but at the end of the day, it’s still a job.

“It was very important for us to ground them, keep them in school and teach them that nothing would be handed to them on a plate.

“You might have to audition for something 10 times before finding out you didn’t get it.”
