The doting mother admitted in December that having their three kids at home all the time killed any hope of intimacy.
She even revealed that she and her actor husband, 45, went ‘a month of literally not saying a single word to each other’ as they struggled through lockdown.
Joanna told The Sun: ‘We spent the whole of the first lockdown arguing and threatening to divorce each other.

‘Then we went through a month of literally not saying a single word to each other.’
The Welsh actress went on to explain that they came out of the first lockdown feeling ‘numb’ and desperate to get ‘anything we could’ after arguing ‘so much’.
Speaking about their sex life, she continued: ”’Let’s get some sex in before we have to pick the kids up from school” – that’s how desperate we’d got.’
She went on to say that their saving grace was finally sending their kids back to school, admitting it gave her the chance to fancy her husband of 17 years again.
Joanna tied the knot with her longtime partner James, who starred as John Barton in Emmerdale, back in 2003 and they have since welcomed three children together.
