EastEnders fans will remember the face of bad boy Dean Wicks, played by Matt Di Angelo, who was caught up in some brutal storylines during his time on the BBC soap. Matt, 36 has secured a string of TV roles over the years including regular roles in Hustle and Ordinary Lies, but his time as Dean on EastEnders is by far his most memorable. He first arrived on Albert Square in 2006 before he had a shock exit two years later, but in 2014 made a triumphant return.
During his second stint on the soap, Dean was involved in some traumatic storylines including the time he raped Linda Carter at the Queen Vic on Christmas Day in 2014. Linda was left devastated and viewers watched as she confided in her late husband Mick, before reporting the horrendous attack to the police. Despite everything the charges were dropped and Dean continued to haunt Linda in Albert Square until he left in 2016.
Dean's last scenes showed him being chased out of town by gangster Buster Briggs. Real name While he goes by the name of Matt Di Angelo in his acting career, his real name is slightly different. Born in 1987, the soap star's real name is actually Mario Angelo S Constantinou - reflective of his Irish and Greek parents.
Matt hails from Enfield, London and attended Southgate School before joining the infamous Sylvia Young Theatre School.
This led him to secure major roles in BBC's The Hustle and EastEnders. Cheeky interview Away from EastEnders, Matt has proven to be quite the cheeky chappy as he joked about needing to cover up during sex scenes while appearing on This Morning back in 2016. Referring to a previous role he said: "Basically, when I was shooting a film in Prague I was given a triangle with a pot of glue.
