With a picture of two Northern Cardinals feeding each other, the actor’s wife appeared to draw a parallel between themselves and the birds.

In December 2020, the exterior of the house appeared in an Instagram post by James. His wife was seen riding a four-wheeler with one of their children, with wooden buildings visible in the background.
