Vincent is also a star on the stage and has performed in many productions with the Royal Shakespeare Company, including Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing and King Lear.
Who is Vincent Regan's wife?
Vincent Regan is married to British actress Amelia Curtis.
Amelia, who was born in Stockholm, Sweden but grew up in East Yorkshire, has popped up in various big and small screen roles over the years.
She is perhaps best known for playing Juliette Holliday in ITV soap opera Emmerdale, a part she played for seven years from 2014 to 2021. She may also be recognised for portraying Viki Lovejoy in the final series of BBC comedy-drama, Lovejoy, and Nurse Catherine in The Royal.
Viewers may also know the 50-year-old for her role in the second season of BBC drama, The Syndicate. Her other screen credits include Love, Lies and Records, Holby City, The Bill, Waterloo Road and Doctors.
Vincent and Amelia tied the knot in 2001 and went on to welcome two children, Esmé and Max. The couple moved from East Dulwich in London to Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire after their daughter was born.
What is Before We Die about?
Lesley Sharp returns as Bristol-based detective DI Hannah Laing in the second season of the drama, which is based on the Swedish series of the same name.
The first series ended with Hannah trying to uncover the leak in the police department who is feeding information to the criminal gang, the Mimicas.
On what viewers can expect from season two, Lesley said: "Someone within the police department is feeding information to the Mimicas, and at the end of series one, she is tasked with finding out who that is.
"But it's getting to a point where it's just going on and on and they're not getting any closer, so the decision is made to sideline it, which means she is back working closely again with her old mate, Billy (Vincent Regan). They are utilising all the facilities he can get his mitts on, because he doesn't work within the aegis of the police so they can go slightly more rogue."
