Coronation Street star Darren Morfitt recently joined the cobbles as Dom Everett, the estranged father of Eliza Woodrow with protective grandfather, Stu Carpenter, left wary over the newcomer.<\/p>\n

In upcoming scenes, Stu Carpenter (played by Bill Fellows) could be set to uncover a dark secret about Dom, which would prove his point to Eliza Woodrow (Savannah Kunyo) that he is bad news.<\/p>\n

However, as Eliza and Dom have been getting closer, Stu has been unsure of the impact he has been having on Eliza.<\/p>\n

But, thankfully, away from the soap, 49 year old Darren has a far less drama filled life off screen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Early life and career <\/h3>\n

Brought up in Hartlepool, a seaside and port town in County Durham, Darren was a studious teenager as he finished his A-Levels.<\/p>\n

After completing his studies, he then packed his bags and headed to London where he studied acting at the Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, graduating in 1997.<\/p>\n

Soon after graduating from Mountview theatre school, Darren landed his first major TV role in Dream Team, which was a football drama series.<\/p>\n

After starring 71 episodes he left in 1998. But it didn't take long for him to land another role in Grafters, where he played a character called Simon Purvis for 15 episodes.<\/p>\n

Family life <\/h3>\n

Darren keeps his family life relatively private but what we do know is the well-renowned actor is actually married to actress Helen Latham, 47, who is best known for her role in Footballers' Wives as Lucy Milligan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She has also appeared in The Bill and the Liverpool based soap Brookside.<\/p>\n

The couple first met at Darren's theatre school Mountview in 1995 and by 2004, they tied the knot among close friends and family. <\/p>\n

Unlike many celeb couples, neither Darren or Helen have social media, and keep their relationship very private.<\/p>\n

Where you've seen him before <\/h3>\n

Viewers will recognise Dom actor Darren from the actor's various television and film roles over the years. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Darren played Sergeant Colin Brackley in Line Of Duty in 2012.<\/p>\n

Other credits include Silent Witness, 55 Degrees North and The Split to name a few. Elsewhere, Darren has appeared in a collection of films, including 2017's Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Now Is Good, How I Live Now, Una, Harrigan, Doomsday and Dog Soldiers.<\/p>\n

However, his arrival in Weatherfield as Dom Everett is set to make him even more of a household name.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8pm on ITV.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
