Davood Ghadami, who played Kush Kazemi on EastEnders until the character's death in 2021, has reportedly “left his wife” for his panto co-star.
Now, the couple have reportedly left their spouses and moved in together. Davood and his wife share two children while Melanie has three kids, which she has brought to live with the actor in Essex, reported The Mirror. The showbiz duo now post plenty of photos together on social media, showing themselves cuddling up. Prior to his relationship with Melanie, however, Davood gushed over his wife.
"I’m an incredibly lucky man. My life couldn’t be the way it is without her support. She was amazing when I was in Strictly and kept everything going." "People will say things. As long as you know the truth and the people you love know the truth it shouldn’t matter. I guess I did learn that," he said.
