Sid Owen’s actress ex-girlfriend, engagement before split and being a dad at 49

Actor Sid Owen first joined EastEnders back in 1988 playing his down-to-earth character Ricky Butcher up until his exit in 2012. During his time on Albert Square, Ricky was at the centre of a few explosive storylines, however, the focus fell heavily on his problematic marriage to Bianca Jackson, played by Patsy Palmer.

Since leaving Walford, Sid went onto compete as a contestant for the tenth series of BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing. In 2016, the TV star was part of Channel 4’s The Jump and took part in Celebrity MasterChef. Even though it has been some time since he has been away from the soap, the 50-year-old actor plans on returning one day in hopes of finishing “the storyline or go back for a length of time”.

“I’ve got a contract with the BBC,” he told The Sun. “I can’t say too much about what I’ve got on but I’d 100 per cent go back to EastEnders – it’s part of my life. I’ve done 28 years, on and off, and 15,000 episodes [on the show]. Ricky is not dead yet – I should go back one day and finish the storyline or go back for a length of time.”
