VIEWERS are hooked on Noel Clarke’s ITV drama Viewpoint about a woman who disappears.
But behind closed doors he enjoys a quiet life with his wife Iris Da Silva.
WHO IS IRIS DA SILVA?
Noel Clarke is married to Iris Da Silva who is Portuguese, and the pair live in London together.
According to IMDB, she was formerly a make-up artist, who worked on movies and TV shows.
Her credits include the 2002 film Licks, which starred her husband.
Iris also worked in the make-up department for 1999 TV show Metrosexuality.
WHEN DID THE COUPLE MARRY?
Noel is very private about his personal life so it is not known when the couple wed.
However in a 2014 Source interview with Sarah Ewing, he praised Iris for helping him to mend bridges with his estranged father.
He said: “My wife encouraged me to reach out. We speak now and he sees his grandkids.
“I’m glad things worked out the way they did with him because it spurred me on and gave me my drive.”
DO THEY HAVE ANY CHILDREN?
The couple have three children, but they are very private about their kids.
Their youngest son was born in October 2015, but Noel rarely shares photos of his family on social media.
Noel told Sarah Ewing that he had a “newfound respect” for his mum when he became a dad.
She was a single mum bringing him up on his own and having his own children made him realise how difficult that must have been.
He said: “How my mother managed to work full-time, raise me and get through all the difficulties that come with having a boy, well, I don’t know how she did it.”
He added: “There are two of us – my wife Iris and me – raising our kids, and we still find it difficult.”
The family live in Kensington, not far from where Noel grew up as a kid in Ladbro
