Emmerdale star Lawrence Robb, who plays Mackenzie Boyd, is dating West End actress Pamela Blair, whom he recently called a 'keeper' during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine. The 34-year-old actor, born in Glasgow, has been a key figure in the ITV soap since October 2020, but his personal life remains relatively low-key compared to his character's turbulent storylines.
Robb's Mackenzie has been at the centre of dramatic plots, including fathering a child with Chloe Harris, marrying Charity Dingle, and being kidnapped by serial killer John Sugden. The latest storyline sees Mackenzie discovering Charity is the biological mother of baby Leyla after she cheated with Ross Barton, leading to their marriage crumbling.
Off-screen, Robb's relationship with Pamela Blair became public in 2024 after he posted holiday photos subtly featuring her tattooed arm. The couple made their red carpet debut at the Scottish BAFTAs. Blair currently stars in the musical The Devil Wears Prada at London's Dominion Theatre, alongside Vanessa Williams, and has an extensive theatre background including Beauty and the Beast and Oklahoma!.
Robb was previously in a relationship with actress Joanne Thomson, known for Outlander and The Victim, but they quietly split. The actor, who shares a surname with his on-screen sister Natalie J. Robb by coincidence, also appeared in the series I Hate Suzie before joining Emmerdale.
