But his estranged wife, Beverley Sharp, is reportedly not too pleased about the fact that her ex is preparing to head into the jungle. Here’s what Beverley is up to…
Who is Beverley Sharp?
Beverley Sharp is a former dancer.
Alongside her ex-husband Adam, she is the co-founder of gin brand, Neat Gin.
The couple launched the brand together in 2017 and later signed a deal with Marco Pierre White to sell the spirit in 50 of his restaurants.
She is very quiet about her personal life, but she hit the headlines with ex-husband Adam when the pair announced their divorce in 2020.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Beverley was devastated when Adam left the family home after 22 years together without warning.
A source said at the time: “Bev has kept a dignified silence for the sake of the children but this isn’t the amicable split that’s being portrayed.
“Adam walked out on Bev nearly a year ago without explanation. She didn’t even know where he’d gone.
“She’s only seen Adam once since he left and she’s no idea why he walked out on her. He’s shown her no respect at all.
“The media briefings all seem to be about protecting Adam’s reputation and that of EastEnders. Bev’s obviously hugely upset about the way she’s been treated.”
In January 2021, reports claimed that the divorce was becoming “messy”.
Fast forward to October of the same year, when it was announced that Adam was set take part in the 2021 series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
The Sun exclusively reported afterwards that Bev was furious at the news he had signed a six-figure deal while she relies on food handouts.
A source said: “She’s really been struggling.”
Our exclusive pictures show Bev, 56, clutching reduced-price food including bread, a fish pie and quiche on a shopping trip.
In November 2021, it was reported that Beverley was enraged once again after Adam reportedly spent more than 100k on a brand new Campervan ahead of his stint in the jungle.
When did she marry Adam Woodyatt?
On 8 April 1998, Woodyatt married dancer Beverley at a private ceremony at Disney World, Florida.
After 22 years of marriage the pair split.
It’s understood the actor made the decision to leave the relationship, but sources insist there is no third party involved.
A friend said at the time: “Beverley was naturally very upset, as anybody would be in the circumstances, but these things happen and it’s a straightforward separation.
“Nobody plans for these things and divorce is a difficult thing to get your head around but they have dealt with it quietly for several months and are now telling friends so it’s less of a secret.”

Do they have any children?
The couple have two children together, Jessica Jade and Samuel James.

He played the police officer who was seen putting handcuffs on him.
In 2016, Sam suffered a serious injury after an accident that saw him hit by a car.
Just months later, he defied the odds and made a recovery in order to run the London marathon alongside dad Adam.
