It was recently announced Coronation Street’s Sue Cleaver is one of the many ITV stars departing from the soap. The Eileen Grimshaw star, 59, has played her role in the hit ITV soap since the year 2000, but will soon say goodbye to the show. Not a spotlight-seeker, Sue has previously said of her personal life: ‘I do keep my life private and I am very happy with my home life.’.

But for anyone wondering, who is Sue’s husband, and what has she said about him?. And does she have any kids?. Sue is married to Brian Owen, a lighting technician for ITV. The couple met on Coronation Street, and left their previous relationships to be together in the early 2000s.

They’ve been together ever since. As of 2019, it seems the pair still work together on the Corrie set, too – as Sue revealed during a segment on This Morning, where she discussed her terrifying battle with sepsis. She said at the time: ‘My husband, who also works on Corrie, he was on a night shoot and he had to ring me.
‘He said to his colleagues – something’s not right, I can’t hear what she’s saying because her teeth are chattering so much… He rang our daughter-in-law who’s a paramedic and she said, ‘Get her to hospital’.’. The couple share a pup named George Paws, who often features on Sue’s Instagram. Sadly, in October last year, the star confirmed the beloved pooch had died.
Previously, Sue was married to actor James Quinn from 1993 to 2003, who she met in 1991. Fans might recognise James from roles in soaps including Corrie (as D.S. Willetts), Emmerdale, Hollyoaks, and Doctors, as well as TV series Early Doors and 2017 film Apostasy.
