Death in Paradise star Cathy Tyson has been on our screens for nearly four decades, and she married her actor husband the same year as she first appeared on screen.
In 1984, the Surrey-born actress was launched to fame when she appeared in the TV series Scully, about a Liverpudlian teenager who dreamt of playing for Liverpool FC. She played Joanna.
The same year, rising star Cathy married her sweetheart Craig Charles, a performance poet and fellow actor whose huge break was just around the corner. It looked like Cathy’s life was safe in its trajectory towards a happy ending. However, her marriage to Craig was sadly an unhappy one. The pair divorced just five years later, in 1989.
Who is the husband of Cathy Tyson?
Cathy Tyson married Craig Charles in 1984, when she was just 19, and he was 20. They welcomed their son Jack in 1988. However, within a year, the couple were divorced.
Actress Cathy, who recently played Carly’s mum in the BBC One series Boiling Point, subsequently remained single for more than 25 years. She later admitted her “divorce was the light at the end of a very dark tunnel”. Happily, she eventually found love again, and married Michael Kingston in 2015.
