Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on September 01, 1973)

Happy Birthday, Steve John Shepherd! From your unforgettable portrayal of Michael Moon in "EastEnders" to captivating audiences on stage and screen alike, you've proven that talent truly ages like fine wine—getting better every year. Your ability to bring depth and charisma into each role has left us laughing, crying, and occasionally yelling at our TVs (in the best possible way).

Here's wishing you another fantastic year filled with exciting roles, standing ovations, and perhaps fewer dramatic exits than poor old Michael had! Keep dazzling us all; after all these years you're still stealing scenes—and hearts—with ease. Cheers!
