James Corden and wife Julia Carey enjoy a stroll in the Pacific Palisadesas he recovers from ‘minor’ eye surgery

James Corden enjoyed a laid-back stroll with his wife Julia Carey in LA’s Pacific Palisades neighborhood after undergoing eye surgery. 

For his second public outing since the procedure, the Cats actor, 41, appeared in high sprits, while sporting a navy polo shirt and jeans on Tuesday. 

The TV producer, who shares son Max, nine and daughters Carey, five, and two-year-old Charlotte with the comedian, put her toned legs on full display in a pair of white shorts by her husband’s side.

The media personality also sported a new thick beard with his locks worn in a quiff, as he walked with both hands in his front pockets. 

Last month, the late night host took to his social media platforms to reveal he was recovering after the ‘minor’ surgery’ and would be taking a break from his show. 

The Late Late Show host’s statement read: ‘Hey all. I had to have minor surgery on my eye yesterday. I am doing well and recovering, but won’t be able to film new episodes for a few nights.

A mystery issue which left the presenter temporarily unable to see caused him to miss out on attending the Critics’ Choice Awards back in January, where he scooped the Best Talk Show prize.

Detailing the issue, James said on his show earlier this year: ‘I’m in a bit of pain, genuinely I’ve got a problem with my eye.

‘You know I have this constant problem for the last few years, and yesterday it suddenly flared up so bad I couldn’t see. I went to see this doctor and I was worried.

‘He looks at my eye and tells me what’s wrong, I won’t tell you as it’s a bit gross. He says I have to avoid reading and bright lights. I asked him, do you know what I do for a job?

‘Because of my eye, I couldn’t go to the Critics’ Choice Awards, which were here in Los Angeles. I got a text on my phone and guess what gang, we won Best Talk Show, and tied with Seth Myers.’
