Shaun Williamson is set to get married next spring.
The former ‘EastEnders’ star – who played bumbling mess Barry Evans in the long-running soap from 1994 until his alter ego was dramatically killed off in 2004 – secretly popped the question to his partner Adele Seager last year and the pair are planning to tie the knot in a private ceremony next April, according to The Sun Online.
This won’t be the first time Shaun has got married though as he previously got hitched to Melanie Jane Sacre, with whom he has two children Sophie and Joseph, in 1997.
The pair met while they were both taking part in an amateur dramatics production but they have since divorced in secret.
And, although he’s known for keeping his private life close to his chest, fans are no doubt hoping Shaun will open up about his romantic side while he’s in the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house after he entered the famous abode in last night’s (01.08.17) show.
The 51-year-old actor was the first celebrity to step foot in the abode, but was left feeling a little uncomfortable as producers instantly set him a challenge.
Shaun was told he had to convince all of his new fellow housemates that he was the most nervous contestant and carry out a series of tasks – including getting Brandi Glanville to pour water over his head, persuade Derek Acorah to give him a long hug, and choose someone to be his "rock" – without being caught out by his co-stars.
‘Ex on the Beach’ hunk Jordan Davies, Helen Lederer, Sam Thompson, Paul Danan, Sarah Harding, Sandi Bogle and Jemma Lucy were among those who also went in.
