Tonight: How To Age Well – Who is Martin Kemp?
Martin was born on October 10, 1961 in Islington, London.
From the age of seven, he attended the Anna Scher Theatre drama club and later began working in a print factory.
Martin’s career set off in 1979, when he joined the new romantic band Spandau Ballet playing bass guitar.
Eventually, he left his job to focus on the band full-time alongside his brother Gary, Tony Hadley, Steve Norman and John Keeble.

The band quickly became a success and sold over 25 million albums worldwide.
However, cracks began to appear within the group.
Martin’s brother Gary admitted: “My brother Martin dominated the way we looked.
“There were many, many arguments, particularly towards Tony, feeling that he wasn’t looking right or pulling his weight on that side of things.”
Why did Martin leave Spandau Ballet? When did he join EastEnders?
After ten years, the band decided to take a well-needed break.
However, they later split in the early 90s due to a dispute over royalties.
Gary and Martin went on to star as Ronald and Reggie Kray in the highly acclaimed film, The Krays.
He then moved to Los Angeles to appear in The Outer Limits and Highlander: The Series.

He was also known for feuding with the Mitchell brothers and for having a drug addiction.
