Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel! Make sure to hit that subscribe button and stay tuned for more details. Today, we’ve got some surprising news about Coronation Street star Jack P. Shepherd, and it’s not for the reason you might think—he’s joining Celeb Big Brother, but it’s not about another hair transplant!

Jack, who plays David Platt on Coronation Street, is gearing up for a stint in the Celebrity Big Brother house, and it turns out his motivations go beyond just getting a boost in his career or finances. While Jack is no stranger to cosmetic enhancements—he famously underwent a hair transplant to address significant hair loss at the front of his scalp—this time, it’s not about hair. The 37-year-old actor is reportedly eyeing a much bigger goal: saving up for his wedding to fiancée Henny Truik.


Jack and Henny, who got engaged during a romantic safari in Africa in 2024, are planning their wedding for this summer. According to sources, the couple is putting everything into making their special day perfect, with Henny being known for her impeccable style. The couple is determined to ensure their wedding day represents who they are as a couple, surrounded by friends and family. However, with such an extravagant wedding on the horizon, finances are clearly a factor.

Though Jack earns a solid £250,000 a year from his role on Coronation Street, the reported £100,000 he is set to earn from Celeb Big Brother is a significant draw. The show’s lucrative paycheck is no small deal, especially for someone planning a big wedding. Jack is said to be receiving the same amount as former EastEnders star Patsy Palmer, though CBB contestants like Michael Fabricant and Daley Thompson are reportedly making even more, with the likes of Mickey Rourke and Jojo Siwa commanding even higher paychecks.

Jack has been candid in the past about his hair transplant procedure, which he underwent in 2019 after struggling with hair loss. He admitted that it had begun affecting his mental health to the point where he even considered stepping away from acting altogether. The transplant, which involved 3,000 individual hairs, gave him a much-needed confidence boost, and he has been open about how it helped him feel better about himself in the public eye.
