EastEnders star surprises fans as he poses with Hollywood legend and Oscar winner
EASTENDERS legend and Strictly star Charles Venn looked to be having the time of his life as he posed up a storm with an unlikely pal.
Charles, who played Ray Dixon in the BBC soap opera, was mingling along the Hollywood elite as he attended Floyd Mayweather’s star-studded birthday party in London.
Floyd was celebrating the occasion in the capital ahead of his UK fight against ex-Geordie Shore star turned fighter Aaron Chalamers.
But it was Charles‘ surprising friendships and connections that left everyone gasping it online.
He looked pretty cosy with Hollywood superstar Jamie Foxx as he shared a snap of the pair beaming down the lens as they shook one another’s hands.
Charles captioned his series of images from the night: “Last night was literally a movie, beautiful vibe, great people!! #floydmayweatherbirthdayparty.”
The pair were both dressed sharply as they donned suits for the A-list bash.
Charles was also seen with a fellow soap star as former EastEnders actor and Hollyoaks heartthrob Richard Blackwood was also in attendance at the event.
Floyd turned 46 as he partied at the London restaurant Ours.
The boxer donned a yellow and black tartan suit with a turtleneck as he hit the town to enjoy his big day.
He also clutched a bottle of champagne as he grinned from ear to ear for pictures.
Their menu prices would have been a drop in the ocean for the money man, with a native lobster linguine or tender fillet of beef setting punters back £39.
A bottle of Dom Perignon costs significantly more, however, with a 2006 vintage rose fetching £2,400.
Mayweather’s latest exhibition bout sees him face off with Geordie Shore’s Aaron Chalmers.
The former reality TV star admitted that one of his beloved Newcastle stars has been trying to get tickets ahead of the Carabao Cup final.
