EastEnders star Martin Kemp is a big name in showbiz, but some fans might not know that his 80s pop star wife Shirlie Kemp is a famous entertainer in her own right.

On the BBC soap, Martin Kemp, 59, played the shady businessman and villain Steve Owen on Albert Square in a run from 1998 to 2002.

Martin also had a successful pop career of his own as the bassist in Spandau Ballet which ran from 1979 to 1990 - finding success in the 80s with catchy hits like True and Gold - before the band reunited for another stint from 2009 to 2019.

Martin is also set to re-appear on Channel 4's Celebrity Gogglebox with his radio host son Roman Kemp this year for its third series which kicks off on June 4 at 9pm.
