Emmerdale star looks a world away from troublesome teen Sean Spencer 10 years after quitting the soap following major glow-up
He quit his role on Emmerdale back in 2014.
And 10 years on, Luke Roskell looks a far cry from his troublesome teenager character, Sean Spencer, after experiencing a major glow-up.
The actor, 27, joined the ITV soap back in 2011 as the son of Ali and Dan Spencer and Amelia’s older brother, being described at the time as 'tearaway' who is 'potentially trouble'.
He starred as Sean for three years, appearing in over 260 episodes and played a part in several dramatic storylines, including a memorable love triangle with Belle Dingle and Gemma Andrews, which soon turned messy and eventually deadly.
After Gemma became pregnant with his baby, Belle inadvertently killed her and was sentenced to prison.
