Tony Discipline, 36, was an EastEnders stalwart for two years between 2011 and 2013, playing Tyler Moon.
His character was the son of Eddie Moon (David Essex), as well as a cousin to legendary Alfie Moon (Shane Richie).
He arrived on Albert Square with dad Eddie Moon and brother Anthony and worked in the family's antiques store.
The cheeky chap, who stared in 175 episodes of the BBC soap, was then seen training as a boxer before starting a relationship with Whitney Dean.
Yet after their relationship faltered, he quit Walford life for a cruise ship with his brother in summer 2013.
Now Tony has kept his followers up-to-date with his off-camera life on social media.
As well as his holiday images, he has uploaded snaps showing nights out with family and friends and recent bike rides.
Alongside one recent image, a fan wrote: "Looking good."
He added the thoughtful caption: "Memories" to on image showing him on the beach.

He previously revealed his new career as a bartender, with his The Tipsy Trailer bar, while he has also trained as a firefighter.
Yet recently, proving he is keeping his hand in acting, he posted his new headshots to his Instagram grid.
As well as EastEnders, he has starred in 2012's All I Want For Christmas and 2021's Override.
Last year, fans were stunned as he popped up in rival soap Doctors.
He told us: 'I love it. Every day is different and you feel you're helping your community.
"It can be quite dangerous but you're trained to deal with those situations.'
Actor Tony has also spoken positively about his experience on the show, noting he'd be open to returning.
He previously told The Sun: 'I loved my time there.
"It was a great chapter in my life and if the opportunity ever came up, I would definitely be interested.'

Vogue Williams admits she thought husband Spencer Matthews was a 'sociopath' when they first met in shock confession
Vogue Williams has revealed she initially thought her now-husband Spencer Matthews was a 'sociopath' when they first crossed paths. The TV presenter, 39, met Spencer, 36, back in 2017 while filming the reality ski competition The Jump. At the time, Spencer was known for his wild partying ways on Made In Chelsea - a far cry from the clean-living marathon runner and dad-of-three he is today. Opening up in a new interview, Vogue reflected on her first impressions of the reality star turned wellness advocate, admitting his former playboy image left her very sceptical. She told The Sun: 'I kind of met him with a preconceived idea, and I was like, "I'm not going to like him" because I thought he was a sociopath. 'But after I met him, I loved his personality straight away . . . he was so sound, but I was being really good at being single and I wanted to stay single, so I thought, "He's going to be a really good friend" - that's the first thing I thought.' Vogue and Spencer went on to marry in 2018 and has since become parents to Theodore, six, Gigi, four, and three-year-old Otto. Earlier this month the pair marked a milestone in their marriage as Vogue took to social media to share some sweet snaps. Taking to Instagram, the beauty stunned in a neon yellow dress as she posed next to Spencer, who donned a black tuxedo. She captioned the love-up snaps: '7 years married today. 3 kids, two dogs and a whole lot of fun.' It comes after the TV presenter revealed she 'thought her life was over' after divorcing Westlife singer Brian McFadden on an installment of the Mail's 'The Life of Bryony' podcast. In a candid conversation with Mail columnist Bryony Gordon, 'relationship girl' Vogue, reflected on her love life ahead of turning forty. She remembered feeling as though she had 'ruined her life' in 2017 after her divorce aged 31 from Westlife singer. The Irish mother-of-three revealed her joy at having built a happy family life with Spencer, despite the constant 'outside noise' that surrounds their relationship. In her eagerly awaited autobiography Big Mouth, Vogue details her struggles with anxiety that have cast a shadow throughout her adulthood. Vogue told Bryony she manages the disorder far better now, with a 'great' and supportive family behind her. However, the model admitted that the 'noise' surrounding her marriage to TV star Spencer still manages to get under her skin. On her anxiety, Vogue explained: 'It's this thing in your life that you wish would just go away. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes it's a lot worse. 'When I wake up, I am really conscious of any mood I could be in. It's why I don't drink much now because that is something for me that is a huge trigger of anxiety. 'I will always have beta-blockers in the cupboard, but I rarely take them. It depends on what's happening in my life. 'For me now, it's more the outside noise of my job and people outside of my family that stress me out. 'In this industry, certain people are very much out for themselves. The way they portray themselves isn't true - it's not actually who they are.'

Sabrina Carpenter's sexuality ISN'T the problem – instead it's those who vilify women
Our columnist Zara Janjua has her say on the debate around Sabrina Carpenter's new album cover ZARA JANJUA Sabrina Carpenter's sexuality ISN'T the problem – instead it's those who vilify women WHAT exactly is a regressive stereotype of a woman? Because judging by the collective societal nosebleed over Sabrina Carpenter's latest album cover — where she's on all fours, hair playfully held by a man, beside the title Man's Best Friend — apparently, it's any woman who dares to be sexual on purpose. Advertisement 2 Zara Janjua doesn't see what all the fuss is about with Sabrina Carpenter's album cover Credit: The Sun 2 The Espresso singer sparked a backlash over her Man's Best Friend album cover Credit: instagram Cue the outrage. Cue the Facebook dissertations. Cue Glasgow Women's Aid calling it 'a throwback to tired tropes' and suggesting it promotes 'violence and control'. I mean, really? This is what sends people into moral convulsions? Advertisement A consenting adult who's posing in a bit of cheeky sub/dom cosplay? The trope I'm personally bored to death with is the pure, respectable, sexless woman. You know, the one whose value peaks just before she hits puberty and plummets the minute she discovers lube. That's the real regressive stereotype. The virgin. The saint. The woman who exists to be wanted but never wants. We've been peddling that fantasy since Eve got blamed for a fruit salad. Women have always been judged and persecuted for their sexuality — from witch trials to lobotomies, FGM to honour killings. Advertisement Meanwhile, men are celebrated for doing the exact same thing. The Weeknd released a whole concept album as a sleazy club predator and was hailed as 'visionary'. Sabrina Carpenter fans only just realising she's a secret nepo-baby with HUGELY famous TV star family member I'm beyond bored of the double standards. And it's everywhere. Notably on TV — where stereotypes and tropes are rampant. When Disney+ brought Jilly Cooper's Rivals to screen last year, they had their chance to modernise the script but they blew it. The lead male — Rupert Campbell-Black, played by Alex Hassell — is deliciously promiscuous, arrogant, entitled, and is allowed to shag everything that moves, cheat on his partners, seduce stable girls and still ride off into the sunset with a young, virginal beauty, triumphant and completely adored. Advertisement But Sarah Stratton, played by Emily Atack, who mirrors Rupert's behaviour? She's a side character. At first, she's the punchline then the villain — calculating, emotionally unstable, and punished for daring to want. Same libido, different ending. One gets the girl. The other gets the boot. And don't even get me started on what Hollywood did to Samantha Jones — sex goddess. Publicist. Icon. In the final season of Sex And The City while Charlotte was enjoying family life with her husband and adopted child, as Miranda found vulnerability and married Steve and Carrie finally got her happily-ever-after with Big . . . Samantha got breast cancer. Advertisement A disease written-in to attack her womanhood and her libido. Even Kim Cattrall said the storyline felt like punishment for her character's rampant sexual appetite and wild lifestyle. Then came And Just Like That, where Samantha was exiled to London and reduced to a 76-second phone cameo. (Yes, I timed it.) Kim Cattrall has confirmed she won't be returning for season three, because, honestly, who wants to be the sexy scapegoat again? And we're supposed to believe Sabrina is the problem? The problem is that we vilify women who express their sexuality or we turn them into a joke. Advertisement And don't come at me with 'What about the kids?' If your teenager's understanding of sex, respect and relationships comes solely from an album cover, that's not Sabrina's fault — that's yours. Maybe we should be teaching young people to talk about consent, fantasy and desire like actual humans, instead of pretending sex doesn't exist and then blaming women when it inevitably does. The backlash isn't about the image. It's about control. People hate when a woman launches herself crotch-first into the world, without shame, without compromise, and without asking if it's OK first.
