He eventually married fellow actor Melanie Hill in 1990 before the pair split in 1997. Later that year, Sean went on to marry his Sharpe co-star Abigail Cruttenden. They split in 2000.
The actor tied the knot with his fourth wife, Georgina Sutcliffe, in February 2008 after the pair originally cancelled their January wedding the day before for "personal reasons". However, things weren't meant to be and they separated two years later, in 2010.
In 2017, Sean wed American actress Ashley Moore and confirmed the happy news by sharing an official image taken at the wedding ceremony, which was held in Dorset. It showed Sean proudly standing with his arm around his new wife.
Chatting to The Daily Mail ahead of the wedding, Sean said: "I wasn't planning on getting married again. But then I wasn't planning on meeting someone as amazing as Ashley. I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together."
To The Times, he said of his bride: "She's full of life. Exuberant. Very positive energy. We've been together nearly seven years now and, you know, as I said, she's been around the acting game."
