EastEnders Nish Panesar star’s marriage with wife who bravely battled cancer
EastEnders' Nish Panesar is regularly abusive towards ex-wife Suki Panesar but in real life, actor Navin Chowdhry has been happily married for more than a decade
EastEnders star Navin Chowdhry has been happily married to his wife Charlie for 12 years.
The actor, 53, joined the BBC soap as Nish Panesar in September 2022. He has quickly carved himself out to be one of Albert Square’s biggest villains, regularly abusing ex-wife Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal).
During Thursday’s episode (February 29) of the soap, Nish turned violent against Suki once again – but this time, his wider family were there to witness it. Horrified by Nish’s brutality, the Panesar’s made a defiant stand and hurled Nish onto the street.
Away from the soap, Navin couldn’t be further from his evil character. In July 2011, the Doctor Who star tied the knot with Charlie.
