[edit] Personal life
He was previously engaged to singer Rachel Stevens but they broke up in 2004. Edwards later said that their relationship hit the rocks after co-star Laura Sadler's death. Shortly after Sadler's untimely death, Edwards' life headed in a downward spiral and he then began having boozy nights out at local pubs, which greatly displeased Stevens. After giving Edwards an ultimatum, Stevens got fed up with her then fiance and the two split.
For a month after the split, the couple did not speak at all. However, Edwards realized that Stevens was the most important thing to him and quickly tried to shape up. The couple reconciled and were seen together, minus Stevens' engagement ring. Despite media reports saying the two were finally finished, they began looking for homes in Belsize Park.
Pictures of the cuddly couple emerged and it seemed like everything was going well for the two. But Edwards relapsed and Stevens finally gave up and ended the relationship after three years and an engagement.
