Denise Welch and her first husband David Easter were married for five years
Originally from Tynemouth, Northumberland, Jacqueline Denise Welch graduated from Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in London in 1979.
Six years later, according to The Northern Echo, she married actor David Easter, from Hampshire. They had been together for a “long” time before tying the knot.
You might know him from roles in Brookside, Emmerdale, Hollyoaks or The Bill.
They divorced in 1988, after three years of marriage. The Echo quotes the Loose Women star as saying, at the time, that “David preached monogamy at me and then decided he could play away for Britain”.
By the late 1980s, both parties had moved on with their lives, and remarried. But in 2001, Denise invited David onto her ITV2 show Soap Fever, for what the Echo called her “toughest interview to date”.
