Inside EastEnders star Scott Maslen’s life off-screen with stunning wife and lookalike son ahead of Christmas Day drama
EASTENDERS fans have watched Jack Branning throw himself right into the middle of the drama leading up to the explosive Christmas Day episode.
It's only a few more days until EastEnders viewers find out the person laying dead on the Queen Vic floor - as teased in a previous flash-forward episode.
But away from Albert Square Scott Maslen, who plays Jack, has a very different life compared to his police detective counterpart.
While Jack is a notorious ladies man - who just last week confessed to cheating on wife Denise with Stacey Slater - Scott, 52, is happily married to his stunning DJ wife Estelle Rubio.
The happy couple got together in 1999 and tied the knot in 2008, with a loved-up Scott telling at the time: "I am associated with being a bit of a Jack the Lad because of the parts I play, but I don’t understand people who cheat, and I cannot be with a friend who cheats.
"I want a long-lasting kind of love and I believe I will have that with Estelle, it’s been a very intense period for us both but it was the most beautiful day of my life."

He and Estelle welcomed son Zak in 2001. Now 22-years-old, Zak splits his time between Barcelona and London and is studying at university.
Whenever Scott and Zak post snaps and videos together on social media, fans go wild for how alike they are.
And when he's not acting or spending time with the family Scott is partial to a bit of fishing and often shares his catches on Instagram.
Scott's character Jack is one of the seven men who have been teased to be involved in the Christmas Day murder.

It's thought one of 'The Six' - made up of Denise, Stacey, Sharon Watts, Linda Carter, Kathy Cotton and Suki Panesar - will be responsible for the killing.
And with Jack leaving wife Denise devastated and furious after his one night stand with Stacey, many fans think it's him we'll be saying goodbye to.
